Note: this operation
does not
physically cancel the macro, which is still available to
be bound to a button in process, but simply sets free the button bound to it.
There is no procedure to
physically cancel
already defined macro. The operation,
which is only useful to keep the macro archive of the instrument clean, is always
available for the service technicians.

Zeroing the Scale
To set the scale at zero, press the button marked with “-> 0 <-“.

Selecting the Product to be Processed
The main page lists all the PLUs in the machine.
When a PLU is sent to process, it is univocally associated with:
a CTRL LOT, which name is assigned on the basis of the criteria chosen by the
user and keeping all information statistically relevant for the control of prepacked
products (e.g. average, standard deviation, and so on);
a PROCESS, that is a temporary copy of the PLU which can be independently
modified and which keeps all the relevant elements of totalization for the
production (numerosity and weight of pieces, carton boxes, pallets, progressive
numbers, and so on).
Here are the ways to send a PLU to process:
Tap the line on the grid
Press the “START” button
Tap the area for “Search”, then, when the keyboard appears, enter the PLU name;
in this case while some letters are keyed, the machine starts a process of
incremental search selecting the plu starting with such letters; pressing ENTER
the PLU is sent to process; or, after 2 seconds, the keyboard hides and the PLU is
selected in the grid.

Giving a Name to the Production Lot
It is possible to identify a lot in three different ways which can be set thanks to the LOT
IDENTIFICATION in MACHINE configuration, in the CTRL group:
Manual
: the operator gives a name to the new lot at the first opening, which
occurs at the start of the process and when the loti s closed when the option to get
out from the process upon closing the lot is not selected.
sequence
: In this case, a sequence number is added (at the bottom) to
the manually entered lot code. Such number is incremented at every closing,
actually generating a new lot. In this case, if the machine is programmed to go on
with the process after the loti s closed, the sequence number is automatically
