Minimum Load
The minimum load required for
initialization of the averaging routine
is configured in Setup under:
appl1
:
anim.wg
:
3.6.
Setting a minimum load for averaging
can be especially useful if you configure
automatic start of measurement�
The minimum load required for
automatic taring of the container
weight on the platform (first weight),
or for automatic printout of results,
is configured in Setup under:
appl
:
a.tare
:
3.5.
You can choose from the following
10 levels for this setting:
1 digit
2 digits
5 digits
10 digits
20 digits
50 digits
100 digits
200 digits
500 digits
1000 digits
The “digits” here refer to the scale
intervals in the connected weighing
platform� If the interval of the
connected platform is 1 g, for example,
and 1000 digits are required, you must
place at least 1000 g (= 1000 intervals)
on the weighing platform to start the
averaging routine�
Starting the Measurements
The averaging routine does not begin
until the fluctuation in weight value
remains below a defined threshold
over three consecutive measurements�
The tolerance limit is defined as a
percentage of the animal or object
weight (for example, 0�1%, 0�2%, ���,
50%, 100%), configured in Setup under:
appl1
:
anim.wg
:
3.19.
If the “Averaging” parameter is set to
2%, for example, and the animal or
object weighs 10 kg, measurement
does not begin until the fluctuation
in weight value remains below 200 g
during three consecutive measurements�
Display
A calculated average value is shown
continuously on the main display�
The
!
Symbol (indicating a calculated
value) is also displayed�
You can toggle between this display to
a readout of the current weight on the
platform by pressing the
w
key�
In the Setup menu, under:
appl1
:
anim.wg
:
3.21.
you can select “Display is static until
unload threshold reached” to have the
display switch automatically to the
weight readout when you unload the
weighing platform (i�e�, when the load
is less than half the minimum load)�
The result of the most recent averaging
operation is not saved�
If you select “Display is static until
the
c
key is pressed,” the calculated
average remains displayed even after
the weighing platform is unloaded,
until you press the
c
key to begin
a new measurement�
