DESCRIPTION 

SELECTION LIST 

F1 
Graduations 

Specifies  number  of  full-scale  graduations,  i.e.  capacity  /  division. 
Value should be consistent with legal regulations and environmental 
limits  on  the  useful  system  resolution.  Pressing  the  ZERO  key  to 
scroll down one level begins the sequence 

Key-in  
100 - 50000 
5000 (NA) 
3000 (€)
 

F2 
Sampling Rate 

Sets  the  sampling  rate  in  Hertz  (measurements  per  second).  Use  
10 Hz for most applications or 80 Hz for extra fast response time 

10 (NA/€)   80 

F3 
Zero Track 
Band 

Selects  the  range  within  which  the  scale  will  automatically  zero. 
Note  that  the  scale  must  be  in  standstill  to  automatically  zero. 
Selections are in display divisions (d). 

0d 
0.5d (NA/€)
 
1d 
3d 
5d 

F4 
Zero Range 

Selects the range (expressed as a percentage of full scale capacity) 
within  which  the  scale  may be zeroed. Note that the indicator must 
be in standstill to zero the scale. 

100% (NA) 
1.9% 
2%  (€) 
20%  

F5 
Motion Band 

Sets the level at which motion is detected. If motion is not detected, 
the  scale  can  process  a  Print  or  Zero  command.  Maximum  value 
varies depending on local regulations. Expressed as scale divisions 
per  second  (d/s).  Pressing  the  ZERO  key  to  scroll  down  one  level 
begins the sequence 

Key-in  
0.0d/s – 32.0d/s 
 
1.0d/s (NA/€)
 

F6 
Digital Filter 

Averages  weight  readings  to  produce  higher  stability.  Choose  the 
speed that works best for your application.  

   “FAST”  = Fast            “nnEd” = Medium             “SLo” = Slow  

FAST 
nnEd (NA/€) 
SLo 

F7 
Overload Limit 

Selects the desired formula which determines the point at which the

unit selected in F8. 

"FS" = Full scale capacity. 

FS 
FS + 2% (NA) 
FS + 5% 
FS + 1d 
FS + 9d (€) 

F8 
Calib. Unit

"1" = primary unit is lb.                       "2" = primary unit is in kg. 

1 (NA) 
2 (€) 

F9 
Display 
Divisions 

Determines  the  desired  weight  increments.  Value  should  be
