Counting Mode (Pcs) - A&D GF-30K Instruction Manual

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.

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
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.
