3. On the 650 scale, press the “Sample” soft key. The scale prompts you to add
pieces to the platter.
4. Press the “APW” soft key. The scale prompts you to choose either KEYIN or
TCS (TC Series).
5. Press the “TCS” soft key. The 650 attempts to communicate with the TC Series
scale. If successful, the 650 will briefly display the uploaded APW.
6. Place your parts on the 650 scale. If the APW is large enough, the 650 scale will
now display the number of pieces on the scale. If it does not, the scale briefly
displays an error message, but still allows piece counting.
4.2 ITEM ID STORAGE
Your scale can store piece weight information for up to 2000 item records. These items are stored
and retrieved under an Item ID number. The Item ID numbers are sequential 0 –2000,
maintained automatically by the scale and cannot be changed. Each item record stores the
following information:
• Item ID – a 4 digit sequential number automatically assigned each time a new Item ID
is stored
• Product ID – an alphanumeric field consisting of up to 15 characters
• Name – an alphanumeric filed consisting of up to 25 characters
• Accumulator – whole number up to approx 99,999,999.
• Average Piece Weight (APW)
NOTE: After sampling, the APW is automatically stored in this field.
• Tare Weight – of the Container for Local Scale
• Tare Weight – of the Container for Remote Scale (if equipped)
• Unit – unit of measure (saved automatically)
After sampling an item, you can store its information automatically by adding a new item entry.
Once created and stored, you can recall and modify the item’s information by calling up its Item ID
number. A list of all stored items can be called up very easily.
4.2.1 RECALLING AN EXISTING ITEM ENTRY
1. Press the Item ID soft key. The scale prompts for the Item ID number.
2. Key-in the sequential four digit Item ID number and press the ENT key. The scale
automatically recalls the stored information.
NOTE 1: If you do not know the four digit Item ID number, press the LIST soft
key. The scale displays the screen shown in Figure 4-1. Four Item Ids are shown
for each screen. Use the up/down arrow soft keys to move within the four Item
Ids shown. Use the PgUp and PgDn soft to recall additional groups of four Item
Ids. If your list of Item Ids is long, press the ENT key and the scale prompts
“Input Item ID:” Enter the starting Item Id number and the list will begin with that
number. Some fields may be truncated due to display limitations. Once the
desired item is highlighted, press the Recall soft key.
NOTE 2: If you wish to key in the Product ID rather than the sequential Item ID,
Press the ITEM ID soft key, then press the KEYIN soft key and the scale
prompts “Enter Product ID”. Enter the Product ID and press ENT. The scale
loads the APW and other record information and begins counting.
NOTE 3: If so equipped, you may use your scale’ s barcode scanner to scan in
the Product ID rather than the sequential Item ID number from a pre-printed
label. The scale loads the APW and other record information and begins
