6.0 DISPLAY

This display includes areas for the weight value (up to 7
digits), symbols for common weighing units, tare, stability, zero
and low battery and a text area for menu.

The LCD has 7 x 7-segment digits for the weight and 10 x 14 -
segment digits for messages, symbols for weighing units and
indicators such as stability etc.

The 14 segment digits area is used to display messages
concerning operation or errors.

The 10 digit text area is used to display the current weighing
mode or to guide the user through the operation.

SYMBOLS AND INDICATORS

The LCD has unique symbols to indicate the following:

0



Zero

Stable

g, oz, ozt, GN, dwt,
ct, Kg, mg, Pcs, %

Text is shown for the weighing units and
modes

“

CAL

When calibration is occurring or about to occur

“

ºC

”

When a temperature is shown or a calibration
is requested due to change in temperature

“

ti
