6.3.2 Entering a known Unit Weight
•
If the unit weight is already known then it can be entered using the
keypad.
•
Enter the value of the unit weight using the numeric keys followed by
pressing the
[U. Wt.]
key within few seconds while the display is
flashing. If no action is initiated within a few seconds, the "
Unit
Weight
” display will revert to the previous value, otherwise it will
show the new value that has been entered.
•
The sample is then added to the scale and the weight will be
displayed as well as the quantity based upon the unit weight. When
weighing in kilograms the unit weight is shown in grams. When
weighing in pounds the unit weight is shown in pounds.
•
After the unit weight has been determined or entered, the scale can
be used for parts counting. The scale may be tared to account for
the net weight as discussed in an earlier section.
•
After the scale is tared, the items to be counted are added and the
"
Count
" display will show the number of items computed using the
weight and the unit weight.
•
It is possible to increase the accuracy of the unit weight at any time
during the counting process by manually entering the sample
quantity and then pressing
[Smpl]
. Ensure that the quantity
displayed matches the quantity on the scale before pressing the key.
The unit weight will be adjusted based upon a larger sample quantity
providing greater accuracy when counting larger sample sizes.
6.3.3 Automatic update of unit weight
•
The scales will automatically update the unit weight when a sample
less than the initial sample count is added. A beep will be heard
when the value is updated. It is wise to check the quantity is correct
when the unit weight has been updated automatically.
•
To lock the unit weight and prevent Auto-update, press
[U.Wt.].
•
This feature is turned off as soon as the number of items added
exceeds the count used as a sample.
