quantity placed on the scale, and the data is displayed as with the previous
counting methods.

numbers from memory, which will use a stored APW value to calculate
the count. Follow the procedure below to count from memory.

was stored under that part, and the prompt to count

to sample or enter an APW value. If the APW is not
calculated here, the file will be opened in weight only
mode.
