Counting - Sartorius Signum 1 Operating Instruction

Application 1: Counting Z
With the Counting program you can
determine the number of parts that
each have approximately equal weight.
Features
Signum 3 only:
– Enter the reference sample weight
(" wRef ") via the keypad
– Save the reference weight " wRef
from the weighing platform
Signum 3 only:
– Enter the reference sample quantity
" " via the keypad
nRef
– Enter reference sample weight using
a bar code scanner
– Automatic reference sample updating
– Counting with two weighing platforms
– Activate info-mode by pressing I
– Toggle the display between quantity
and weight by pressing W
– Define the resolution (level of accuracy)
applied when a calculated reference
sample weight is stored
– Automatic taring of container
weight. Configure these options in
the operating menu, under:
appl1 : A.Tare : 3.7.
(autotare first weight)
– Automatic initialization when the
Signum is switched on. The display
and control unit is initialized with the
most recently used values for reference
sample quantity " nRef " and reference
sample weight " wRef ".
Operating menu setting:
appl1 : count. : 3.8.
(start app. with last values)
– Closing application program;
deleting parameters:
The value for reference sample weight
remains active in the reference memory
until you delete it by pressing the
c key, overwrite it or until you select
a different application. It also remains
saved after the scale has been
switched off.
Signum 3 only:
You can select the function of the
c key for clearing application data.
When an application is active, this
key can either delete the values saved
for all applications, or delete selected
values saved for the active application.
Operating menu setting:
appl1 : Sel.Cf
key c function in
(select CF
" applications)
– Tare function:
1) If you store a tare (weight value) by
pressing the ) key, you can later
enter a tare value manually. The tare
value you enter is added to the stored
tare value.
Setting: menu code 3.25.1 (factory
default)
2) A tare value entered manually over-
writes a stored tare value (weight
value). If you enter a tare value manu-
ally, a tare value (weight value) stored
later overwrites the manually entered
value.
Setting: menu code 3.25.2
Operating menu setting:
Signum 2
APPL : Z : 3.25.
Signum 3
APPL : TARE.F : 3.25.
– Restore factory default settings. Operat-
ing menu setting:
Signum 2:
APPL : Z : 9.1.
Signum 3:
APPL : DEF.APP : 9.1.
– Calculation:
: 3.24.
– Keypad input: Enter a reference
– Bar code input: Enter the reference
Before the quantity on the platform
can be calculated, the reference
sample weight (average weight of
one piece) must be entered in the
application. There are three ways
to enter this value in the program:
– Place the number of parts defined
as the reference sample quantity on
the weighing platform and press O
to calculate the reference sample
weight
– Alternatively you can place any
number of parts on the weighing
platform, enter the number of parts
using the keypad, and then press
the O key to calculate the average
piece weight
How the reference weight is calculated
depends on the application setting for
resolution. The value is either rounded
off in accordance with the display
resolution, or saved with 10-fold or
100-fold increased resolution, or with
the maximum internal resolution of
the weighing platform.
Signum 3 only:
sample weight (i.e., the weight
of one piece) using the keypad and
press O to save it.
sample weight using a bar code scanner
After initialization, you can use
the connected weighing platform
to count parts.
The initial application values are valid
until deleted by pressing the c key,
or until overwritten by new values.
They also remain saved after you switch
off the scale.
