5.11 CPE mode operation
When configured in piece count operation (the selection can be made from
SETUP or by user by pressing
), the terminal can feature the following
functions:
✔
display the number of pieces, average unit weight (from here on AUW)
and weight;
✔
AUW calculation by difference of weight;
✔
automatic calculation of the number of pieces.
5.11.1 AUW Acquisition
The average unit weight is a fundamental value for the correct calculation of
the pieces; it is, therefore, very important to run the acquisition phase, since
the more accurate this data, the more precise the piece count number.
The average unit weight can be acquired in two ways:
✔
acquired from the scale by sampling a defined number of pieces;
✔
transmitted in serial by a processor using the remote controls
If the AUW is acquired, proceed as follows:
✔
press
: the number of samples is displayed and the first weight is
simultaneously acquired to calculate the AUW;
pressing
again displays the number of samples selectable from a
fixed table. Select the number of samples that will be subsequently
loaded.
✔
The terminal waits 10 seconds for loading or unloading the pieces on the
scale.
✔
the terminal checks the stability of the weight and calculates the AUW.
As the weight stabilising, the message
WAITING
appears, ending with
the calculation of the average unit weight. As the weight is stabilising, you
can continue loading and unloading samples from the scale.
