Minimum Load
The minimum load required for
initialization of the averaging routine
is configured in the operating menu
under:
appl V: 3.6.
Setting a minimum load for averaging
can be especially useful if you configure
automatic start of measurement.
The minimum load required for auto-
matic taring of the container weight on
the platform (“autotare first weight"),
or for automatic printout of results,
is configured in the operating menu
under:
appl V: 3.5.
You can choose from the following
10 levels for this setting:
1 digit
to
1000 digits
Example: If the scale interval (d) is
1000 g and the minimum load is set
to 1000 digits (=1000 scale intervals),
a load of at least 1000 g is required
for autotaring.
Starting the Measurements
The averaging routine does not begin
until any fluctuation in the weight
value remains below a defined threshold
over three consecutive measurements.
The tolerance limit is defined as
a percentage of the animal or object
weight (for example, 0.1%;
0.2%; ...; 50%; 100%), configured in
the operating menu under:
appl V: 3.19.
If the “Animal activity" parameter is
set to 2%, for example, and the animal
or object weighs 10 kg, measurement
does not begin until the fluctuation in
weight value remains below 200 g
during three consecutive measurements.
Display
A calculated average value is shown
continuously on the main display. The
a symbol (indicating a calculated value)
is also displayed.
You can toggle between this display
and a readout of the current weight on
the scale by pressing the w key.
In the operating menu, under:
appl V: 3.21.
you can select “Display is static until
unload threshold reached" to have the
display switch automatically to the
weight readout when you unload the
weighing platform (i.e., when the load
is less than half the minimum load).
The result of the most recent averaging
operation is not saved.
If you select “Display is static until
c is pressed," the calculated average
remains displayed even after the
weighing platform is unloaded, until
you press the c key or begin a new
measurement.
