Chapter 8. Math Channels
8-3
standard math rules regarding order of
operations. If you are unsure of how to
apply these rules, use parentheses to
ensure that the Weigh II is calculating
what you want it to calculate.
• The maximum value that a math channel
can display is limited to six active digits; if
the calculated value exceeds this maxi-
mum, an error message will appear when
monitoring the channel. To prevent this
error, scale down the value from the
equation using the divide function. Note
that the magnitude of the maximum value
is dependent on the
Form
selected for the
channel (see Chapter 4, Display, for
selecting the
Form
).
Equations containing more than 40 charac-
ters or more than three constants can be
created by putting additional math channels
on-line. These additional channels can be
used to calculate intermediate results used
by the math channel. The channels used to
calculate the intermediate results can be
hidden from the display by using the
Hide
function in the
Disp
Menu. The example
below shows an incorrect equation with more
than three constants and the use of multiple
math channels to create a correct equation.
Incorrect
(contains more than 3 constants)
C5=10*C3+100*C2+1000*C4+10000*C1
Correct
C6=10*C3 (hide this channel)
C5=C6+100*C2+1000*C4+10000*C1
Enabling a
Math Channel
1. If the Weigh II is in Auto Mode (Auto LED
illuminated), press the Auto/Man Key to
put the system in Manual Mode. The Auto
LED turns off.
Note
It does not matter what channel the
Manual Mode is in when you go into
the menu tree to enable channels.
2. Press the Menu Key to display the
Main
Menu. The display shows:
