Sartorius ME415S Operating Instructions Manual page 63

Preparation
To calculate a piece count, the average weight of one piece must be known.
This average piece weight can be entered into the Counting program in one of three ways:
– Enter the average piece weight using the numeric keys and store it;
– The last reference sample quantity entered is loaded and displayed when you turn on
the balance. Place the same number of parts on the balance and initialize the Counting
program;
– When the automatic initialization parameter (see previous page), is on (Setup: > Printout:
Application-defined output: Autoprint upon initialization: All values; see page 34), the
balance goes into the "counting" mode when you turn it on and loads the last average
piece weight and corresponding reference sample quantity that were entered or calculated.
Reference Sample Updating
You can have the average piece weight updated during counting (with the piece
count displayed) if "AWP update" is set to "manual" or "automatic" in the Setup menu.
Manual updating can only be performed when the
Reference sample updating must be completed before using an application program from
Application 3.
Update
The soft key is displayed when:
– the balance has stabilized (stability symbol displayed)
– the current piece count is not more or less than double the original piece count
– the current piece count is more than 100
– the internally calculated piece count (e.g., 17.24) differs from the nearest whole number
(in this case: 17) by less than ±0.3
Reference updating can be repeated several times with an approximately
doubled piece count.
