SETTING UNITS
ATX-R/ATY-R series balances can be made to indicate weights in units other than the basic units of
grams by switching units with the
key in the weighing mode.
You must register the units you will require in advance.
On shipment from the factory, the only unit registered is g (grams).

*1 If we take the value in the Gram conversion column to be "a", the formula is as follows.
"a" × balance weight reading (each unit) = value in gram units
*2 If we take the conversion factor to be "k", the formula is as follows.
"k" × value in gram units = balance weight value (selected units)
*3 The minimum indication for ct (carat) may vary depending on the production lot even if they are the same model.
Not applicable to verified balance as a legal measuring instrument of ATX84R and ATY64R.
*4 With user-specified units, the conversion factor (*2) and minimum indication can be set as required.
