7.4. Mode Switch (Changing Unit and Mode) switch, the display changes as follows. Refer to function table f3 Pressing the MODE for units. Usable units are according to the factory settings. If the law in your area Pound premits, you may use all of the units.
Page 23
Explanation The status of "Inactive comparator ( )" is that comparator function ( f6 0 f6 2 f6 4 f6 6 is selected and the comparator is not used. The "active" or "Inactive" (ON/OFF) for the comparator can be selected by pressing the SET switch alternately. The following parameters are stored in the same memory.
8. Counting Mode The counting mode is the function to convert the total mass value (total weight) of articles to a count, when each of these articles assume the same mass value. It is necessary to store a unit mass to count articles. Even if the AC adapter or the batteries is removed, the unit mass is maintained in non-volatile memory.
8.2. Counting the Number of Articles Step 1 Press the switch to display the unit MODE Counting mode Step 2 Store the articles unit mass. Storing a unit mass Refer to "8.1 Storing a Unit Mass" A container(bowl) Step 3 Place the container item only on the weighing pan. Press the switch.
9. Percentage Mode The percent mode is the function to display a mass value in the unit of "%". Store a 100% mass value, in advance, to use this function. The 100% mass value is stored in the scale even if the power is removed. 9.1.
9.2. Reading Percentage Step 1 Press the switch to display the unit %. MODE % Percentage mode Step 2 Store the 100% mass of the article. Storing a 100% mass Refer to "9.1 Storing a 100% Mass " A container(bowl) Step 3 If a container is needed, place the tare item only on the weighing pan and press the switch.
10. Accumulation Function This function counts the number of weighed items, calculates the total mass value and can display the number and accumulated mass value. The accumulation function is displayed with up to 6 digits. The balance can not display 7 or more digits, therefore the leading digits are not displayed.
Function table Meaning and purpose When the display is a stable value and without nearly-zero, the scale accumulates the data automatically. The next accumulation can be performed after the display is nearly-zero. f8 4 Recording the number and mass of articles removed from the weighing pan.
10.2. Operation and Performance (Examples) Example 1 Weighing each article, the scale makes the accumulation according to f8 3 . Step 1 Press the switch to display MODE Step 2 Press the switch to reset the accumulation data. ZERO Step 3 Return to the kg mode using the switch.
11. Upper/Lower Comparator Function This function compares a display value with the upper limit (HI), the lower limit (LO) and displays the result. Set the "comparator function ( )" parameters, upper limit value (HI) and f6 0 f6 7 lower limit value (LO) in the function table, in advance, to use this function. Install option OP-03 or OP-04, to use the relay output of the comparator.
Function table Meaning and purpose When the display value becomes stable and not nearly-zero, the f6 7 scale compares the value. It does not compare on an unstable condition. Caution The upper limit value (HI) must be greater than the lower limit value (LO). The parameters of the upper limit value (HI) and the final value (HI) use the same memory.

Last page Step 5 If either of has been f6 0 f6 2 f6 4 f6 6 Either parameter is selected. selected, press the switch to use the f6 0, f6 2 f6 4, f6 6 comparator. Step 6 Press the switch to display the blinking HI.
11.2. Operation and Performance (Examples) Example 1 This example is set as follows: Function table (The scale always compares the weight value f6 1 even when the value is nearly-zero.) Upper limit value (HI) 7.000kg Lower limit value (LO) 6.500kg Case The comparison starts at turning the scale on.
12. Full/Dribble Batch Function This function changes the scale to a filling machine which subdivides a bulk product ( like grain) into loads of predetermined and virtually constant mass. Set the parameters of the "comparator function ( )", " full/dribble batch f6 9 sub-function ( )"...
Page 36
Caution The comparison of the full/dribble batch function is a one way sequence (not reversible). If the display value becomes less than the final value after the value reached a predetermined target value, neither HI nor LO is on. The parameters of the upper limit value (HI) and the final value (HI) use the same memory.
12.1. Preparation (Setting Parameters) Step 1 Turn off the display. Press the switch while the switch is ON/OFF ZERO pressed and held. The function table is displayed. Step 2 Press the switch to display an item of the ENTER comparator function ( Step 3 Select a parameter of the full/dribble batch function ) with the switch.

L a s t page Step 8 Press the switch to display the blinking HI (of MODE the final value). B l i n k i n g Step 9 Set the final value using the following switches. switch Selecting the number of a figure. ∧...
13. Simple Batch Function This function compares a display value with the final value, preliminary value and zero band for the full/dribble batch function. The result is indicated by zero band (LO indicator), full flow (HI indicator) and dribble flow (OK indicator). Even if a weighing value includes increase and decrease, this function can compare it.
Caution The parameters of the upper limit value (HI) and a final value (HI) use the same memory. The parameters of the lower limit value (LO) and the preliminary value (OK) use the same memory. The upper/lower comparator function, the simple batch function and the full/dribble batch function can not be used at the same time because these parameters use common memory.
L a s t page Step 6 Press the switch to display the blinking HI (of MODE the final value). B l i n k i n g Step 7 Set the final value using the following switches. switch Selecting the number of a figure. ∧...
14. Calibration (Adjusting the Scale) The scale is an instrument which measures the "weight" and displays its "mass" value. Calibration is the adjustment function so that the scale can weigh correctly. There are three steps to calibration. Gravity Acceleration Correction ... When a calibrated scale is moved to a distant place, the scale can correctly weigh anything by revising to a new local gravity acceleration.
