TIPS AND RULES FOR ACQUIRING SAMPLES Before a part can be counted, the scale needs to know how much each piece weighs. This process is known as Sample Acquisition. Samples can be taken quickly through a few key presses (Quick Sample) or they may be defined, named and stored in memory. Acquiring an accurate sample is essential for parts counting and there are a few basic rules that should be followed. -
Page 9: Multiple Platform Counting
MULTIPLE PLATFORM COUNTING Some scales are equipped with two or more platforms. In most cases there is a small capacity platform and a large capacity platform. Samples can be taken, or parts counted, on either platform. It is always recommended to acquire samples on the small capacity platform, if possible, to get the maximum accuracy. But you may use either one. -
