DUAL SCALE OPERATION
The dual scale system involves connecting two Setra counting scales to achieve
accurate bulk counts using small sample sizes . Dual scale operation is described in
Section Four. For dual scale operation, follow this procedure for the sampling scale
only:
1. Press the
—
key and enter
6666
.
2. Press the
setup/cal
key. The display will read “CAL dP”.
3. Press the
setup/cal
key again. The display will read “APW, 1 or 0”. Press
clear
if
you do not wish to continue.
4. Enter
1
if you wish to enable dual scale operation. Enter
0
if you wish to return to
single scale operation.
5. Press the
setup/cal
key.
When set up for dual scale operation, the APW function will transmit the average
piece weight (and ID # if entered) from one scale to another. Refer to Section Four for
complete instructions on the operation of a dual scale system.
Setting up a scale for dual scale operation disables the print function. Pressing
will cause the scale to respond, ”UnAbLE”. Always print from the bulk weighing scale
which should
not be set to operate in the dual scale mode.
Make certain that the baud rates of both scales in a dual scale system are set
identically.
FIRMWARE VERSION
Setra is continually making improvements to its products. As a result the operating
software, or firmware, of the scale has a revision number. The revision number may
prove useful in communicating with your dealer or Setra in case of difficulty.
To find out your scale's firmware version number, follow this procedure:
1. Press the
—
key and enter
7777
.
2. Press the
setup/cal
key. The scale will display “rEF x.x”, where “x.x” is the
firmware version number.
3. Press
clear
to return the scale to normal operation.
