7000 SERIES INDICATORS EN 25
When switching units, the capacity of the converted units is dictated by the original number of divisions established
in the capacity and increments area of setup. In some situations, this may reduce the capacity of the terminal when
converting to second unit.
2.4.4 Expand By 10
The Expand by 10 icon appears in the OPERATOR menu (Figure 2-3), if so configured. It used to increase the
selected weight display resolution by one additional digit. For example, a weight display of 40.96 could increase by
one additional digit to display as 40.958. The Expand By Ten mode is indicated on the display by x10, which
displays below the weight display. When Expand by Ten is selected again, the display reverts to the normal
display of weight.
If programmed as approved with the metrology switch (SW1-1) ON, the Expand by Ten mode is displayed for five
seconds then automatically returns to normal resolution. Printing is disabled when the weight is expanded and the
terminal is programmed as approved.
2.4.5 Print
The print function (demand print) can be initiated by pressing the ENTER /PRINT key or by automatic print
settings. Demand printing of data may also be initiated as part of a particular sequence of operation or special
application software.
Print Interlock
Print Interlock is designed to enforce a single print output per transaction. Print Interlock can be disabled or
enabled. If enabled, the print command is ignored until the measured gross weight exceeds the print interlock
threshold. A print command initiated before the measured gross weight exceeds the print interlock threshold returns
a Command failed
– scale not ready error in the system line.
After the first print command is executed, subsequent print commands are ignored until the gross weight indication
falls below the print interlock reset threshold. If a print command is blocked by print Interlock, a Command failed
–
scale not ready message appears in the system line.
Automatic Print
Automatic initiation of a demand print occurs after the gross weight exceeds the minimum threshold and there is no
motion on the scale. After initiation, the gross weight must return below the reset threshold before a subsequent
automatic print can occur.
Automatic print may be disabled or enabled. Automatic print can be triggered and reset by weight exceeding
thresholds or by weight deviation from a previously stable reading.
2.4.6 Information Recall
A limited number of data fields are made available for easy recall on the terminal display. These fields include data
such as model, serial number, identification fields, hardware and software configuration, a service contact phone
number and whether the terminal has been set up as approved for legal for trade operation.
All this data is accessible under the Information Recall icon in the OPERATOR menu.
2.4.7 ID Entry
The ID function is used for two different purposes, depending on whether the terminal is in basic weighing mode or
in one of the application modes.

In basic weighing mode, a single ID field is available for transaction identification purposes, and the ID value
will be shown at the bottom left of the display. The ID may also be included as a print field in any of the print
templates.

When the terminal is running one of the applications, the ID key may access records from an application
table.
The basic weighing transactional ID value can be entered using one of two methods, described below.
