Combine multiple weights on a rotor
The Sum Weights option lets you enter up to three known or desired weights and angular
locations to calculate the weight sum. Use Sum Weights to combine some weights on the
rotor.
If you open this option from a trim run, you can send the calculated solution to the trim run
screen.

Calculate a new balance solution to use only the
available weights
The Adjust Fixed Weights option lets you enter a known (desired) weight and angular location
(e.g. the correction results), and two available weights manually. The program then
calculates the angular locations of the two available weights, to mimic the solution
provided by the known weight.
If you opened Split Angle from a trim run, press F12 Insert to Trim Weight to send the
calculated solution to the Trim Run Applied Weight entry screen.
Press F7 Split Angle Calc. to exit and return to the calculation screen.
From the Balance main menu, press ALT > F6 Calculator Mode > F3 Sum Weights.
Set the following options as necessary.

F2 View
View the last balance correction. This option displays only if the analyzer
calculated a balance correction and you accessed Sum Weights from the Trim
Balance Corr.
Run Applied Weight menu.
F3 - F5
Enter a number up to 10,000 for a weight value. You can also import the
value from the Balance Correction menu. This field is unitless. If you opened
Sum Weights from the Trim Run Applied Weight screen, the units are as
defined for the job.
Enter a number for the desired weight angle or position. The default is 0 or
F9 - F11
1, depending on if you use continuous or discrete weight planes. You can
also import the value from the Balance Correction menu. If you defined
discrete weight positions and you import the value, the keys display Enter
Position rather than Enter Angle.
Press F1 Calculate Solution or Enter.
The Sum Weights Solution screen lists the location and amount of weight to place
on the rotor. To change the rotation direction, press F6 Toggle Direction Rotation.
If you opened Sum Weights from a trim run, press F12 Insert to Trim Weight to send the
calculated solution to the Trim Run Applied Weight entry.
Press F7 Sum Weights Calc to exit and return to the calculation screen.
