Delayed Start Mode
A rule of thumb to go by for selecting the right setting to weigh animals is:
the more active an animal is, the greater the difference must be between two
successive subweights measured.
Depending on individual requirements, starting the averaging operation can be
delayed either in the automatic or manual mode until the animal you are weighing
has calmed down to a certain degree.
In this case, the start criterion is defined by the difference between two successive
subweights measured. If the animal moves, the start criterion is not met; therefore,
averaging will not start. Once the animal has calmed down, the program
checks whether two measured subweights are within the previously selected range.
If so, the actual averaging operation will be started.

During averaging, the number of subweighing operations left to perform is shown
on the weight display (countdown mode).
Changing the Number of Subweighing Operations
You can change the number of subweighing operations used to average
a weight. Change this number in cycles. You can choose from the following
settings: 5,10, 20, 50 and 100.
