The numeric keypad on the right side of the front panel has two function
keys:
• CLEAR Lets you clear the displayed number, tare, or
piece weight. Press to clear the last display digit
during digit entry.
If you press the RCL/. key followed
by a numeric key, the PC-905
treats the first key press as a
decimal and not a recall request.
• RCL/. Use this to recall the last tare, piece weight,
sample size or to enter a decimal (only if a
numeric key is pressed first). See note at left.
Use the 0-9 numeric keypad for entering piece weight or tare values.
There are five keys below the display:
• COUNT/WEIGHT Toggles between displaying weight and count
when a piece weight is active.
• PRINT Sends serial data from the RS-232 port to a
connected printer. If the unit is configured for PC
or Broadcast mode, this key will not function. See
the
Service Manual .
• UNITS Press this key to change the displayed unit of
measure. If enabled, the choices are lb, kg, g,
and oz.
• PIECE WEIGHT Lets you key in a known piece weight. Press this
key after entering a numeric value to accept it as
the current piece weight and make the count
mode active.
• BASE Toggles between the local and remote base.
