The controller calculates the piece weight of the sample parts
removed.
6. Key in (or bar-code scan) the tare weight of the container.
7. Add the sample parts back in that were removed.
The displayed quantity then is the total number of parts in the
container.

For the best counting results, certain setup parameter selections should be
set. Refer to parameters P112 à P116, P119 and P162 à P163
beginning on page 3-27 for additional information.

Multi-Range operation allows the scale's division size to change as weight
increases. Two or three ranges can be specified. This feature is often
used in truck/railroad scales where a truck might be weighed in 20 pound
divisions up to 200,000 pounds, then switch to 50 pound divisions up to
400,000 pounds for weight rail cars.

The current range is determined by the gross weight. Upon power-up,
range 1 is in effect, the division size specified at P127. When the gross
weight exceeds the limit of range 1 specified at P126, range 2 goes into
effect using the increment specified at P129. When the gross weight
lb
ˆ
exceeds range 2 specified at P128, range 3 goes into effect. The limit of
Gross
range 3 is the full scale capacity set at P110 using the division size
specified at P111.
In order for the range in effect to change back to the lowest range, any of
the following three events must occur.
lb
Gross
The gross weight must fall below plus ¼ grads on range 1
i.e. P127 = 20 Lbs. The scale must fall below 5 Lbs.
lb
Š
The scale must be re-zeroed with the [ZERO] key (or %z macro
Gross
command)
If the net weight is less than –5 grads and the gross weight is within the
zero range (per P118), then the gross weight is zeroed and the tare is
cleared and the range is reset to range 1.
The current range applies to the displaying and printing of the gross, net,
and tare weights. Also, whenever rounded gross (20P) or rounded net
(21P) are referenced, the rounding is done according to the range in effect
at the time of the reference. Of course, the rounding of 20P and 21P is
done to the default units, not the current units.
