6.3 PARTS COUNTING
6.3.1 Setting Unit Weight
In order to do parts counting it is necessary to know the average weight of the items
to be counted. This can be done by weighing a known number of the items and letting
the scale determine the average unit weight or by manually inputting a known unit
weight using the keypad.
A. Weighing a sample to determine the Unit Weight
To determine the average weight of the items to be counted, you will need to
place a known quantity of the items on the scale and then to key in the number
of items being weighed. The scale will then divide the total weight by the
number of items and display the average unit weight. Press [CE] anytime to
clear the unit weight.
 Zero the scale by pressing the [Zero] key if necessary. If a container is to
be used, place the container on the scale and tare by pressing [Tare] as
discussed earlier.
 Place a known quantity of items on the scale. After the weight display is
stable, enter the quantity of items using the numeric keys and then press
the [Smpl] key.
 The number of units will be displayed on the "Count" display and the
computed average weight will be shown on the "Unit Weight" display.
 As more items are added to the scale, the weight and the quantity will
increase.
 If a quantity which is smaller than the sample is placed on the scale, then
the scale will automatically enhance the Unit Weight by re‐calculating it.
To lock the Unit Weight and avoid re‐sampling, press [U. Wt./Units].
 If the scale is not stable, the calculation will not be completed. If the
weight is below zero, the "Count" display will show negative count.
