If the default weight units P150 are changed on the controller, any weight
data stored in a database is not affected. However, if it is later printed or
recalled, the controller assumes that the stored data is in the current
default units of measure. For this reason, GSE recommends that you do
not change the default units of measure if records are stored in a database
that contains weight data.
The value stored in memory for a weight parameter (Gross, Net, Tare,
Gross Total, and so on.) is the value rounded off to the nearest weight
increment as defined in setup parameter P111.
When rows that contain actively calculated weight data are recalled, the
recalled data is overwritten as soon as the next weight conversion process
occurs, which is immediately unless a macro is running which is postpones
the weight conversion process. Therefore, these actively calculated weight
parameters will not normally be included in a database if the created
records are going to be recalled. If this is a requirement, the macro, which
is written to perform the recall operation, should immediately copy the
weight data to another parameter if the recalled weight data will be
needed.
The actively calculated parameters include Gross, Net and Quantity.

The following setup combines the database and macro capabilities for
establishing and recalling piece weights. If you press [ID], you will be
prompted to enter a part number. Key in the part number and press
[ENTER].
If the piece weight associated with that part number does not exist, the
controller lets you know that the piece weight does not exist by prompting
"NOT FOUND" briefly. The controller then prompts "Add Smple."
Place the sample on the scale and press [ENTER] for the default sample
size, or key in a sample size and then press [ENTER]. A row is created in
the database. The controller is then placed in the quantity mode. If the
piece weight exists, the controller prompts "DATA FOUND" . The controller
is then placed in the quantity mode automatically.
Example #1:
Recall piece weights per part numbers.
