3.0 User Key Functions (F1and F2)
There are optional functions that can be programmed for the function keys (
F1
and
F2
) on the front panel, as well as on the RF remote display. See Section 4.2 for setup
instructions.
Note
The functions PRINT (F3), and TARE are available full time on the RF
remote display.
3.1 OFF
No
USER
key function assigned. The F-Key is disabled.
3.2 TEST
The
TEST
function provides an LCD test that lights all LCD segments and the LED at
once and then counts from 00000 to 99999. Other internal tests are performed and if
any test fails, an error code will display. See Section 7.2 for a description of all error
codes.
3.3 TOTAL
Note
The Total Mode must be programmed from the setup menus before
the USER key will function. See Section 4.5.
For accumulation of multiple weighments. The accumulator always uses the
displayed weight, so GROSS and NET readings can be added into the same
TOTAL
.
There are four modes of totalizing: manual and three auto modes.
The manual mode requires the
TOTAL
key be pressed with the tension on the unit. The
tension will then be added to the previously accumulated value. This assures that a
weight on the scale is only added to the total once. Both the manual and three auto
total modes require that the tension on the Dyna-Link return below 0.5% (relative to
full scale) of GROSS ZERO or NET ZERO before the next weighment can be added.
Applied weight must be ≥1% of full scale above GROSS ZERO or NET ZERO
before it can be totaled.
3.3.1 MANUAL TOTAL
The
Fx-TOTAL
key under the MANUAL TOTAL mode functions in this manner:
1. With the tension at more than 1% of capacity, push the
Fx-TOTAL
key to add the
current tension to the TOTAL weight. The
Fx
LED blinks to indicate the tension
value was accepted. The TOTAL LCD annunciator and the total weight is
displayed for about five seconds, then the number of samples is displayed for
about two seconds.
2. Remove the weight, when the tension is less than 1% of capacity, place next
load to be accumulated on the unit.
3. Repeat until all loads to be accumulated have been added to the total.
4. To view the total weight accumulated, push the
Fx-TOTAL
key with the tension
at less than 1% of capacity (no weight on unit), the total weight will display for
five seconds (view total) without changing the total value. The TOTAL LCD
annunciator and the total weight is displayed for about five seconds and then the
number of samples is displayed for about two seconds.
