Engineering units
These settings affect the engineering units that will be used for many other settings. The engineer-
ing units can be changed at any time. Note that you must enter settings in the same units as set
here eg 750 g calibration weights must be entered as 0.75 kg if the weight units are kg.
Q2111 units metric/imperial [0=both, 1=metric, 2=imperial]
8042, g0
Selects between metric units, imperial units or any if a mixture of metric and imperial units is required.

Q2112 weight units
8044
1
kg=101
These are the engineering units that will be used for all weight settings except the totaliser (eg kg).
Enter weighing units
By default, the weighing units are kilograms ‘kg’. It may be changed to for example tonnes (t), by fol-
lowing the steps below.
1.
Press the Q key to access the setup menu.
2.
Key in the quick key code 2111 to select the ‘weight units’ step.
3.
Press the EDIT key. (If editing is locked, key in the password 111 and press ENTER).
4.
Use the UP and DOWN keys to select the desired units.
5.
Press ENTER to save the selected setting.
6.
Press and hold the BACK key to return to normal operation.
Q2114 flowrate units
8048, g0
2
kg/h=162
These are the engineering units that will be used for all flowrate settings (eg t/h).
Measuring range
If a signal exceeds the capacity setting, it will display as over-range. Therefore the range settings
should be set larger than the maximum value that will occur during normal operation.
The measuring range affects the way many other settings are stored and displayed. These other set-
tings are stored internally as a percentage of the relevant capacity. Once these capacities are set, the
other settings, eg the analog output, will automatically work. Note that, in particular, the ‘weight capac-
ity’ must be set before any other weight settings are entered.

Q2121 weight capacity (WCAP)
8060
1000 kg,t,g
Q2123 flowrate capacity
8064
1000 t/h,kg/h
Display resolution
The division settings affect to what resolution a signal is displayed. For most practical weighing sys-
tems, the total number of divisions will be within the range 500 to 5000.

Q2131 weight division
8070, g0

Q2133 flowrate division
8074, g0

Trade setup
Q2141 trade use check
8702, g7
Displays off if instrument is not suitable for trade use. Information on what needs changing for trade
use is shown.
Q2142 calibration verification code
8714, g7
Whenever a setting is changed which may alter the trade calibration of the instrument, this value will
change. It can be used to check if the calibration has been changed since this value was last recorded.
Q2143 calibration lock
8078, g7
off=0
When set to on, all settings which effect the trade calibration are locked.
