LB Specifies secondary or tertiary units for displayed and printed weight. Values are:
LB=pound; KG=kilogram; G=gram; OZ=ounce; TN=short ton; T=metric ton; GN=grain;
TROYOZ=troy ounce; TROYLB=troy pound; LT=long ton.
MULT 0.453592
0.000001–
9999999 Multiplier. Specifies the conversion factor by which the primary units are multiplied by to
obtain the secondary or tertiary units. The default is 0.453592, which is the conversion
factor for changing pounds to kilograms. See Section 10.10 on page 117 for a list of
multipliers.
To shift between primary, secondary, and tertiary units, press the UNITS key.
Rate of Change (ROC) Units Parameters
For applications using the ROC function, the primary scale should be configured with a finer resolution than the rate of change
(ROC) units to prevent a stepwise appearance in the ROC display. The ROC display step size (weight increment between
displayed values) can be roughly calculated as follows:
(updates_per_ROC_UNIT) * (PRIMARY_resolution / ROC_resolution)
For example, with INTERVL=30; REFRESH =0.1; UNITS=MIN; PRIMARY resolution at 0.1 LB and ROC resolution at 1.0
(LB/MIN):
- INTERVL * REFRESH = 30 * 0.1 = 3.0 seconds per update (ROC data is flushed every 3.0 seconds)
- With UNITS = MIN, there are 20 ROC data updates per ROC time unit: 60 seconds / 3.0 seconds per update
- The resolution ratio of PRIMARY to ROC units is 0.1 (0.1 / 1.0)
- This configuration provides a step size in the ROC display of 2 LB (2 LB increments between displayed values):
20 * 0.1 = 2
Note that setting both PRIMARY and ROC display resolutions to 1 LB would have resulted in a step size of 20 LB.
