Data entry is accomplished by setting each digit individually. For example: to set a value of 57.0
as the target distance, rotate the Select / Scroll Knob until the “D” in “Distance” is blinking.
Depress the Select / Scroll knob to get to the tens digit, then rotate the knob to the value 5.
Depress the Select / Scroll knob again to get to the ones digit, then rotate the knob to the value 7.
Depress the Select / Scroll knob to get to the tenths digit, and depress it again to leave the value
at 0.
A data entry of zero in all columns for any parameter will result in that parameter being reset to
the previous value. Pressing the Select / Scroll knob without first rotating it during the data entry
process will result in a zero being placed in that column. This can expedite the entry of Trigger
values since in most cases the first columns will be zero (004.0 grams).
III.7 Running A Test
A test is initiated by depressing the Start button. The operator is reminded to attach a probe, then
press Start again to zero the probe weight and begin the test. The display of test results will
depend upon the type of test performed (see Figures III.4 – III.7 below).
