3.3.1 Manual Total
The Fx-TOTAL key under the MANUAL TOTAL mode functions in this manner:
Load is more than 1% of capacity and has not been totaled.
1. Push the Fx-TOTAL key to add the current load to the TOTAL weight. The Fx
LED blinks to indicate the load value was accepted.
The TOTAL LCD annunciator and the Total weight is displayed briefly, then the
number of samples.
2. Current load has been totaled, push the Fx-TOTAL key to add more weight once
the 1% threshold is exceeded.
Note
If key is pressed prior to the 1% threshold being met it will display the current
total .
3.3.2 Auto Total
The Fx-TOTAL key under the AUTO TOTAL mode functions as Auto Total On/ Auto
Total Off.
The Auto Mode has three variations which are programmed in the SETUP menu:
• AutoLoad - Any settled load above the ‘Rise above’ threshold will be
automatically totaled. Then the scale must fall below the ‘Drop below’ threshold
before another total is allowed.
• AutoNorm - This mode takes the last settled load to auto total with. The total
occurs only once the Scale goes below the threshold. This allows the load to be
adjusted without a total occurring. Once load is removed, the Scale uses the last
settled reading for total.
• AutoHigh - Similar to the AutoNorm mode except the Scale uses the highest
settled reading. Useful for loads that can’t be removed all at once.
3.3.3 View Total
The Fx-VIEW TOTAL key activates the Total weight display followed by the number
of samples. While the display is showing the Total, Total is cleared by pressing ZERO .
3.4 Net/Gross
Switches the display between Net and Gross modes.
Net weight is defined as Gross weight minus a Tare weight.
To switch between Net Mode and Gross Mode press the Fx-NetGross key (setup to
the Net/Gross function). The Fx-NetGross key will only function if a Tare value has
been established.
Switching back to Gross mode from Net mode will not clear the Tare value. This
allows the operator to use the Gross Mode temporarily without having to reestablish
the tare value. Only clearing or setting a new tare will change the tare value held
before switching into Gross Mode.
