Configuration

The following table describes the various configuration options (values in bold are the default values).

Parameter

Options

Description

Graduations

10000
Number

The value entered must be in the range 1 ~ 100000 and should be consistent with legal
requirements and environmental limits on system resolution.
To calculate GRADS, use the formula:
Grads = Capacity / Min. Weight
Min. Weight for primary and secondary units are specified on the FORMAT menu.

Zero tracking
band

OFF
0.5D
1D
3D

This automatically zeros the scale when the input drifts slowly within the specified range
and speed as defined by the parameter which covers the upper and lower limits. The
maximum legal value is dependent on local regulations.

Zero range

1.9%
100%

This is the range within which the scale can be zeroed. For example, if this value is set to
1.9%, it means that the zero range is ±1.9% around the calibrated zero point, for a total
range of 3.8%. The indicator must be in a stable condition to zero the scale. Use 1.9% for
legal-for-trade applications. 100% indicates the scale can be zeroed at any load.

Motion band

1D
2D
3D
5D
10D
20D
50D
OFF

Defines the change in load at which the scale will exit a stable condition (motion
condition). If motion is not detected for more than 1 second, the stability annunciator
lights. The motion band value must satisfy local regulations.

Overload

FS+2%
FS+1D
FS+9D
FS
(FS=full scale)

Defines the point of overload or underload. The display indicates "------”
when the point of overload is reached. The maximum or minimum legal value varies
depending on legal regulations.

Digital filter 1/2/
3

2
1
4
8
16
32
64
128

Defines the digital filtering rate used to reduce the effects of mechanical vibration. Choices
indicate the number of A/D conversions that are averaged to obtain the displayed
reading. A higher number gives a more stable display by minimizing the effect of a few
noisy readings, but slows down the setting rate of the indicator.

Digital filter
cutout sensitivity

8out
2out
4out
16out
32out
64out
128out

Defines the number of consecutive readings that must fall outside the filter threshold
(defined by DFTHRH) before digital filtering is suspended.

Digital filter
cutout threshold

None
2DD
5DD
10DD
20DD
50DD
100DD
200DD
250DD

Specifies the filter threshold in display divisions. When a specified number of consecutive
scale readings (DFSENS parameter) fall outside this threshold, digital filtering is
suspended. If NONE is selected, the filter is always enabled.

Initial zero range

OFF
8%
20%
50%
100%

Defines the range within which the scale can be zeroed while power is on. Each range is
a plus or minus value. For example, 8% means ± 8% around the calibrated zero point, for
a total range of 16%.
