“NETGROSS” mode.
PEAK HOLD
Function:
Allows the capture of a Peak Weight value. Useful for stress testing
and related operations where the maximum weight measured is stored.
Action:
Selecting Peak Hold converts the scale to a peak reading display
mode.
To Measure Peak Weight:
1) Select the appropriate filter for the application. The Low
filter converts to a special high speed filter used for the Peak
Hold mode only and should be used for peak hold applica-
tions such as cable break tests and other fast transient events.
The Medium and High filters are best for maximum capacity
or peak load tests because these filters will tend to eliminate
peak values due to crane or boom “bounce”. See “Filters” in
the SETUP section for more information.
2) Push SHIFT PEAK HOLD. Display reads “PK GROSS” or
“PEAK NET”.
To Clear Peak Weight:
While the display reads “PK GROSS” or “PEAK NET” press SHIFT
CLEAR.
Note: The last peak value is saved even when not in the peak hold
mode unless it is cleared with the Shift Clear procedure above.
To Return to Normal Operation:
Push SHIFT PEAK HOLD. The message display will return to
GROSS or NET, whatever the last standard mode was.
Note: The Tare, Tare Memory, Zero, Total, and View Total functions
are disabled until the Peak Hold function is removed. Setup, Test,
NET/GROSS, and ID# (Remote users only) are still active.
