8. Key in (or bar-code scan) the tare weight of the container.
9. Add the sample parts back in that were removed.
10. The displayed quantity then is the total number of parts in the container.
3.2.2 Negative piece sampling (model 460)
In order to perform a negative sample routine, the parts must have been sampled
previously and the average piece weight must be accessible.
1. Access the quantity mode by pressing [SELECT].
2. Place a full or partially full container of parts on the scale, and press [SELECT]
to access the quantity mode. The model 460 indicator will perform an auto-tare
resulting in a zero net weight.
3. The display will prompt you to Add:XX where "XX" is the sample quantity of
parts (sample size). Disregard the Add:XX prompt, assume Take:XX , and
remove the requested number of parts.
4. Press the [TARE] key.
5. If the sample's total weight was sufficient, the piece weight will be calculated
and the sample quantity will be displayed. Otherwise, you may be prompted to
"Take" additional parts.
6. Key in the tare weight of the empty container with the [PRINT] and [UNITS]
keys and add the parts removed for sampling back into the container. The
quantity displayed will be the total quantity of parts in the container.
7. If the weight of the sample removed is not detectable or barely detectable, the
message
Code 32 ADD MORE! is displayed briefly. This actually means
"Take" if a negative sampling is to be performed. The model 460 indicator does
not know if the operator intends to perform a positive or a negative sampling if
no weight is removed. This prompt indicates that more weight must be
removed adding to the overall sample weight. This will most often occur when
the [TARE] key is pressed without taking out any parts. If the parts were in fact
taken from the scale, either the parts are too light to count on that capacity
platform or a much larger quantity of parts must be hand counted out in order
to perform the sample.
3.2.3 60 Series (excluding model 460)
3.2.4 Simple keypad sample
Method 1: Sample 10 pieces (parts) and count additional parts
1. Press [SELECT] or 30 [SELECT] to access the quantity mode (QTY).
2. Place the empty container on platform (optional). If a container is not being
used, skip this step and go to step 3.
3. Press the [ENTER] key. The indicator will tare to a zero net weight.
4. Place 10 parts on the platform.
