8-3 Selection of UNIT (measurement standard and minimum display digit)
● Selecting the measurement standard
This is used to select and specify the measurement standards to be used when performing measurements. There
are 3 types of measurement standards; measuring by changes in wet content, measuring by changes in dry
content, and measuring by changes in solid content, and therefore, the standard to be used should be selected in
accordance with the type of material to be measured.

(While a measurement is being performed, the weight at each point in time is used as the dry weight in calculating
measurements.)
● Selecting the minimum display digit
Select 0.1% or 0.01% for the minimum display digit, and configure it.
