PARAMETERS
The scale has 6 parameters that can be set by the user. These allow the user to set
the scale to:
•
Display the weight in other increments of weight to minimise the affects of vibration,
wind or other environmental conditions.
•
Control the back light on the display. It may be necessary to turn the backlight off to
maximise battery life.
•
Set the Accumulation to Automatic, manual or set the RS-232 interface to
continuously print the weight.
•
Set the accumulation to be active when the PRINT key is pressed or to be inactive.
•
Set a range for auto zero.
•
Select another weighing unit than the standard.
To set parameters press the FUNC and PRINT keys at the same time.
The display will show "Inc xx" The first value shown is the default scale increment
value. To select a different increment value press the TARE/ key to change the value
then press the ZERO/ENTER key.
For example on a 15kg scale the standard increment is 0.5g, the value can be
changed to 1.0g or 2.0g.
The next parameter is control of the backlight. The standard is to have the backlight
operate automatically, turning off when the scale is not used. The backlight can be set
to be "EL On" , "EL Au" (Automatic) or "EL Off". The maximum battery life is
achieved with the backlight turned off.
Press the TARE/ key to change the value then press the ZERO/ENTER key.
Automatic accumulation is next. With "Au On" the memory will accumulate the weight
automatically, "Au Off" will enable the manual accumulation and with "P Cont" set
the RS-232 interface will send the weight continuously and the accumulation function is
disabled.
Press the TARE/ key to change the value then press the ZERO/ENTER key.
Accumulation of data in memory when PRINT is pressed is set next. To accumulate
weight in memory when the PRINT key is pressed set "ACC on" to use the PRINT key
to only print the weight without adding it to memory set "ACC of".
The Autozero range is set next. The autozero will automatically set the scale to zero
when the displayed weight is near zero. This helps make sure the scale is measuring
weight from an accurate zero stating point. The Autozero value can be set to 0.5, 1, 2
or 4 scale divisions. The normal setting is 1 scale division.
Press the TARE/ key to change the value then press the ZERO/ENTER key.
