BarS

You can choose to view a numerical display
of the weight or a bar graph of a vessel’s
contents while vessel monitoring. The
maximum span for the bar graph and the
selection of the bar graph as the display
option is set with this menu.

The bar graph displays the vessel contents
as a numerical percentage to the left of the
graph, as shown below:

The 0% point of the bar graph is always 0.
The 100% point of the bar graph is set by
direct entry using the Alphanumeric Keys or
by scrolling to the desired value with the Up
and Down Arrow Keys. For example, entering
the vessel’s maximum capacity of 5000 lbs
as the BarS value results in a bar graph with
0% corresponding to 0 lbs and 100% corre-
sponding to 5000 lbs. If the gross weight in
the vessel falls outside of the range, the bar
graph display does the following:

• If the gross weight falls below 0 (caused by

inaccuracies in the calibration, vibration,
sensor drift, etc.), the graph remains at
0%, and the numerical percentage remains
at 0%.

• If the gross weight goes above the BarS

value, the graph remains at 100%, and the
numerical percentage reflects the actual
weight. For example, if the BarS value is
5000 lbs and the gross weight is 7500 lbs,
the numerical percentage displayed is
150% while the graph remains at 100%.

The default for the display is bar graph Off
(bar graph not displayed when vessel monitor-
ing). The current selection is indicated by an
asterisk.

If enabled, the bar graph displays for the
vessel while vessel monitoring in both Manual
and Auto modes. While in Manual mode,
pressing the Enter Key toggles the display
between bar graph and numerical display.
