3.5 Percent Weighing

Percent Weighing is

enabled only when Percent is turned ON in the Mode submenu under Setup. Percent

weighing permits you to place a reference load on the balance, then view other loads as a percentage of the
reference. The load you place on the pan as a reference may be displayed as any percentage you select from 5 %
to 100 % (in 1 % increments). One hundred percent does not necessarily have to represent the reference load.
Subsequent loads, displayed as a percentage of the reference are limited only by the capacity of the balance.
The default setting is Reference 100 %. Refer to paragraph 4.8 to enable percent weighing.
