6-2. Counting Mode (PCS)

This is the mode to determine the number of objects in a sample based on the standard

sample unit mass. The unit mass means an average mass of the samples. The smaller the
variation in the samples, the more accurate the count will be. The balance is equipped with
the Automatic Counting Accuracy Improvement (ACAI) function to improve the counting
accuracy.

Note

If the sample unit mass variable, the difference from sample to sample, is too large, it
may cause a counting error.

Selecting The Counting Mode

Step 1 Press the

MODE

key to select the unit

pcs

(counting mode).

Storing A Sample Unit Mass (Weighing Input Mode)

Step 2 Press

the

SAMPLE

key to enter the sample unit mass storing mode.

Step 3 To select the number of samples using the

SAMPLE

key. It may be set to 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Advise A greater number of samples will yield a more

accurate counting result.

Step 4 Place a container on the weighing pan, if necessary.

Press the

RE-ZERO

key to cancel the weight (tare).

The number specified in step 3 appears.

Example:

25 0

pcs is displayed if 25 is selected in step 3.

Step 5 Place the number of samples specified on the pan.

In this example, 25 pieces.

Step 6 Wait for the stabilization indicator to come on.

Press the

PRINT

key to calculate and store the unit

mass. Then the balance displays

25 pcs

and is set to

count samples with this unit mass. (The sample unit
mass stored, even if the AC adapter is removed, is
maintained in non-volatile memory.) To improve the
accuracy of the unit mass, go to step 8.

Notes

If the balance judges that the mass of the samples is too light and

can not be stored as the unit mass, it displays

lo

.

If the balance judges that the mass of the samples is too light to

acquire accurate weighing, it displays an error requiring the
addition of more samples to the specified number.
Example:

1

50 - pcs

appears, requiring 25 more samples. Add 25

samples and press the

PRINT

key. When the unit mass is

stored correctly, the balance goes to the counting mode.

The unit mass can be input numerically.

Refer to "12-4-1. Storing the unit mass".

Counting Operation

Step 7 Place the samples to be counted on the pan.

Advise Multiple unit masses can be stored in the balance. Refer to "12. Data Memory".
