4.3 Percent Weighing
Percent Weighing is
enabled only
when Percent is turned ON in the Mode submenu under Setup. Percent weighing
permits you to place a reference load on the pan; then view other loads as a percentage of the reference. The load you
place on the pan as a reference may be displayed as any percentage you select from 5% to 100% (in 1% increments).
100% does not necessarily have to represent the reference load. Subsequent loads, displayed as a percentage of the
reference are limited only by the capacity of the scale base. The default setting is Reference 100%. Refer to para-
graph 3.8 to enable percent weighing.
