Percentage Weighing
The weight of a reference sample is saved as 100%. When a sample is placed on the balance, the balance
indicates the percentage of that sample with respect to the reference sample weight.
A reference sample weight can be set by weighing an actual sample or entering a value.
* Select [
1. Set. 3
] (Percentage Weighing) in Function 1.
