Setting:
Applic./Applic.1/PERCENT/Min.init
menu item 3.6.
The minimum load can be set in 10 steps from 1 to 1000 digits (see available
parameters). The “digits” here refer to the scale intervals for the connected weighing
platform. If the interval of the connected platform is 1 g, for example, and 1000
digits are required, you must place at least 1000 g (= 1000 intervals =1000 digits)
on the weighing platform for initialization.
Resolution
The resolution indicates the accuracy used to determine the reference weight.
The default setting is “display resolution.” The resolution is increased when “10-
fold” or “100-fold” is selected. “10-fold” increases the resolution of the net value
by one step (display resolution x 10), “100-fold” increases it two steps (display
resolution x 100).
Setting:
Applic./Applic.1/PERCENT/RESOLUT
menu item 3.9.
Decimal Places The number of decimal places displayed can range from none up to 3 places.
Setting:
Applic./Applic.1/PERCENT/DEC.PLCS
menu item 3.10.
Parameter for Saving Weight Values
The weight on the platform is saved as a reference value as soon as the platform has
stabilized. “Stability” is defi ned as the point at which the fl uctuation of a measured
value lies within a defi ned tolerance. The narrower the tolerance, the more stable the
platform is at “stability”.
The “increased stability” setting has a lower tolerance so that the average piece
weight saves is more accurate and the results more reproducible; however, the
measurement time can take longer.
Setting:
Applic./Applic.1/PERCENT/SAVE WT.
menu item 3.11.
Weighing in Percent with
You can use two weighing platforms simultaneously with the Weighing in Percent
Two Weighing Platforms application. When using two platforms, you can choose from the following
operating modes:
– Weighing in percent with two platforms of the same type
– Weighing in percent with one reference platform and one weighing platform
Weighing in percent with two platforms of the same type
Use this mode to measure different types of sample material with different weights.
For example, measure the lighter-weight samples on one platform and the heavier
samples on another. You can
defi ne one of the two scales as the reference scale.
The reference scale is the fi rst scale active when you switch on the device, regardless
of the setting for automatic initialization of the Neutral Measurement application.
Weighing in percent with one reference platform and one weighing platform
In this operating mode, the reference platform is a high-resolution weighing
platform with a relatively low maximum capacity. The other platform is used for
weighing heavier samples, and has a high capacity with a relatively low resolution.
This allows you to both determine the reference piece weight with high resolution;
i.e., very precisely, and to measure large samples, without requiring an expensive
high-resolution, high-capacity weighing platform.
The system can be
confi gured to switch automatically to the reference platform for
initialization (the measured value line shows
Ref
). Following initialization, you can
switch to the counting platform.
