scaling values may be entered for a single cell, allowing the same cell to display in different units e.g. Kilonewtons,
Kilograms and Tons. The user may select the load cell to be used via this

function or via the User

pushbutton if the pushbutton has been programmed for this purpose (see

function). To scale any of these

independent calibration memories you may use either the

and

methods or

the

method. Simply select the required cell number prior to scaling then scale using whichever

calibration method best suits the application.

The channel selected will always default to

(or

if external memory is used) at switch on. In addition

to independent calibration scalings for each channel selected each channel can be assigned different decimal point
(

), digital filter (

), mV/V input range (

) and sample rate (

) settings.

4.2 Display rounding

Display:

Range:

Default Value:


Displays and sets the display rounding value. This value may be set to 1 - 5000 displayed units.
Display rounding is useful for reducing the instrument resolution without loss of accuracy in applications where it is
undesirable to display to a fine tolerance. To set the display rounding value go to the

function and use the

or

push buttons to set the required value then press F to accept this selection.


Example:

If set to

the display values will change in multiples of 10 only i.e. display moves from

to

to

etc.

4.3 Memory chip address

Display:

Range:

Default Value:


This function is only seen when an external memory chip is connected. This function is used to display or set a unit
address to one or more optional external memory devices. For identification purposes each device should be
allocated a different address if more than one external memory is used. When a sensor with a memory chip is

plugged in the

function can be used to view the address of the memory device. The address can be set

from

. If the default address

is seen this indicates that the device has not had yet had an

address set. If a memory device has had an address set then the address can be viewed or altered at this function.
The procedure for setting or altering an address is as follows.

1. The

function must be set to either

i.e. a memory device must be connected.

2. With the external memory device connected enter function mode and step through to the Unit function.

3. Use

the

or

arrow to select the required address for that chip then press F to accept the change.


The address selected will now be stored in that memory device. The same address can be allocated to more than
one memory device and the address of a device can be changed at any time by following steps 1, 2 and 3 above.
