SETUP MENU DESCRIPTIONS

This section provides more detailed descriptions of the selections found in the Setup Menu
Chart. Factory-set defaults are shown in bold with a checkmark ( ).
Table 4-1 shows the selections that are not allowed for "Legal-for-Trade" applications:
NAME/CODE
F1 Specifies number of full-scale graduations. Value should be
Graduations consistent with legal requirements and environmental limits on the
useful system resolution.
F2
Span Gain is related to A/D integration time. The larger the span
Span Gain gain, the higher the internal resolution, but the slower the update
speed. Note that the scale must be re-calibrated whenever this
parameter is altered. See Appendix C for more information.
F3 Selects the range within which the scale will automatically zero. Note
Zero Track that the scale must be in standstill to automatically zero. Selections
Band are in Display Divisions.
F4 Selects the range within which the scale may be zeroed. Note that
Zero Range the indicator must be in standstill to zero the scale.
F5 Sets the level at which motion is detected by comparing the present
Motion Band display update with the previous one. If motion is not detected for two
seconds or more, scale is in standstill and can process a Print or
Zero command. Maximum value varies depending on local
regulations.
F6 Averages weight readings to produce higher stability. The higher the
Digital Filter filter number, the greater the stability but the slower the response
time. Choose 8 or 16 unless a very fast response is needed. Use the
"Auto" setting to automatically determine the filter length as you are
weighing.
F7 Selects the desired formula which determines the point at which the
Overload Limit indicator shows overload. All selections are based on the primary unit
selected in F8.
F8
Selects the primary base unit to be used in the calibration process.
Calib. Unit Also the default unit for normal operation.
"1" = primary unit is lb.
DESCRIPTION
"FS" = Full scale in primary units.
"2" = primary unit is in kg.
