Available Features

– The measured result displayed is the arithmetic mean

shown in the selected weight unit; a triangle under

the plus or minus sign indicates that this is a calculated

value

– You can set the number of subweighing operations

performed in the operating menu:

See “Configuring the Scale”

– Press [FUNCTION] for at least 2 sec. to display

the pre-set number of subweighing operations

– Press [FUNCTION] to toggle the display between

the calculated result and the weight

Averaging

Purpose

Use this program to determine weights under unstable

ambient conditions. In this program, the scale calculates

the weight as the average value from a defined number of

individual weighing operations. These weighing operations

are also known as “subweighing operations” or

“subweighs.”
