Additionally, the GS8920’s item entry and counting facility may be in use. In this event, the item’s
quantity and unit price or unit weight and unit price will require entry following operation of the

1 .4 .10 End to End Weighing/Adding weights together using SUM.
The GS8920’s twelve digit summation register allows up to 30 weights to be added together to form
one weight for use on a ticket. This facility has particular application in multiple axle weighing using a
small weighbridge although some weighing codes of practice may prohibit its use.
The first operation of the
SUM
key clears the summation register then places the next gross weight
from the digital weight indicator into the summation register while at the same time placing a record of
the weight into the GS8920’s print buffer for later inclusion on the printed ticket.
Each subsequent operation of the
SUM
key adds the next gross weight from the weight indicator to
the weight already in the summation register and records that weight in the GS8920’s print buffer. The
display shows how many summations have been made, the limit is 9.
Keying
will place the total weight added so far into the GS8920’s print buffer for later
inclusion on the ticket. The list of summed weights will be printed on the GS8920’s ticket.
To create a ticket using the summed weights one of the function keys
AC
,
WEIGH IN
or
WEIGH
OUT
must be operated while the sum message is displayed.
