7.13 Counting
Purpose: Use this application to determine the number of parts of approximately equal weight.
The weight of a counted reference sample is calculated and then the objects with an
unknown piece count are weighed. The balance displays the number of parts and the
piece weight.
Minimize counting errors:
–
Ensure that the weight of individual parts is evenly distributed.
–
Larger reference piece counts lead to a higher degree of accuracy.
–
Switch on Auto Reference Updating.

updated automatically. Since the new parts broaden the basis for the calculation,
this increases the counting accuracy of the reference and with it the result.
