Returning to the weighing mode
17.6. Animal weighing
Working mode <Animal weighing> enables reliable determining mass of
objects in motion. In principle, these types of objects generate unstable
measurement, thus it requires using a different filtering method of
measurement signal.
17.6.1.
Additional setting for animal weighing mode
Apart from the standard settings for this mode (described in the weighing
mode), additional settings have been introduced which describe the operation
of the mode.
Available options:
•
AVERAGING TIME
– Amount of time during which measurement records
of weighed sample are analysed. Obtained data is used to determine
measurement result
•
THRESHOLD
- It is a value expressed in mass measuring units. In order
to start measurement, the indication has to exceed value set in the
threshold.
•
AUTOSTART
- Determines start criterion for measurements: whether they
are initiated manually / on pressing a button or selecting START/ or
automatically.
When set on <YES> a measurement starts automatically if indication on
balance’s display exceeds the value of set threshold. The following
measurement can start on unloading the weighed object from balance’s
pan (the indication has to return below the value set in threshold) loading
a new object on the pan and exceeding the threshold’s value by the
indication.
It should be remembered, however, that before the start of the animal weighing
the above-mentioned options should be set on the appropriate values to meet
the expectations and the needs of the working conditions.
