associated with that item code. To keep the current settings, press the
*
key or press the
SHIFT
key once to
exit the Programming Mode. To change the previously entered data in any field, enter it from the keypad.
5. Enter the Unit Weight per 1000 pieces from the numeric keys, including the decimal point. Valid values
are >=0.01. [Example: the unit weight of a dime is 5.013.] Press the
UW
key to temporarily store this
number as the unit weight. Then press the
* CONFIRM
key to save the data.
6. Press the
SHIFT
key to exit the Programming Mode and return to the Weighing Mode.

Program Value and Unit Weight Where the Unit Weight is Unknown
Start in the Weighing Mode.
1. Enter 121 while holding the
REZERO
key to enter the Programming Mode. The display will show
ProG
.
2. Press the preset key number for the key that you want to program. The number of the key will appear on
the display.
3. Enter the value of the coin to be programmed. Valid values are >= 0.01. If less than a dollar, enter a
leading zero, followed by the decimal point and the value. (Example: The value of a quarter should be
entered as 0.25.)
4. Press the
* CONFIRM
key in order to store the value and go to the weighing mode or press the
SHIFT
key to exit the Programming Mode without storing the data.
5. Press the
CLEAR
key to clear any unit weight data. The unit weight of the coin or token will now be
calculated by sampling.
•
If the coin or token to be sampled is in a container (bin, bucket, bag or tote), place the empty
container on the scale and press the
TARE
key.
•
Place a sample quantity of the coin or token on the scale platform or in the container on the platform.
•
If the sample size is 10 pieces, press the
PCS
key to compute the unit weight. If the sample is made
up of more or fewer than 10 pieces, enter the number of coins or tokens in the sample from the
numeric keypad and then press the
PCS
key.
•
If the sample size is large enough to calculate an accurate unit weight, that unit weight will be
displayed in the Value display and the number of coins on the platform in the Amount display. Skip
to Step 7 below to save the data and exit from the Programming Mode.
If the DMC-782 software detects that the sample size is insufficient to accurately calculate a unit
weight for this coin or token, the scale will request that you increase the sample size as described in
Step 6 below.
6. If the sample pieces were not sufficient to accurately calculate a unit weight, place exactly 10 more
pieces of the same coin or token on the platform or in the container on the platform and press the
PCS
key to compute the unit weight.
The accuracy of the unit weight can be made increased by adding a much larger sample of the coin or
token. Add more pieces to the sample and press the
PCS
key to have the scale recompute the unit
weight.
7. Press the
* CONFIRM
key to save the data, then press the
SHIFT
key to exit the Programming Mode
and return to the Weighing Mode.
6.4
Program a Preset Tare Weight to a Key
1. Enter 121 while holding the
REZERO
key to enter the Programming Mode. The display will show
ProG
.
2. Press the
RECALL TARE
button. The display will show
Pt
to indicate that you are programming a
preset tare.
3. Press the preset key that you want to program the tare to. The preset key will appear on the display to
confirm. If there is a tare value currently programmed to the key, it will also be displayed.
4. Enter the value of the tare to be programmed. If less than one pound, enter a leading zero, followed by
the decimal point and the value. (Example: A tare of 1/2 pound should be entered as 0.5.)
5. Press the
* CONFIRM
key in order to save the data or press the
CLEAR
key to clear the data if you have
entered it incorrectly and want to reenter it.
Pt
will appear on the display. To exit the Programming Mode
without recording any data, press the
SHIFT
key.
6. To enter another preset tare, press another preset key on the keypad and repeat steps 3 to 5.
