6.6.1 Calculation by a Factor
This function enables you to weigh in amounts that are smaller or larger than that of
your basic formula for a specific paint color (e .g ., 250 ml of a 1 l formula) .
The factors (amounts) can be set via the factor key $ and O / P in a range of 0 .1
to 6 .0 .
The following factors can be set directly via the factor key $:
0 .25 0 .5 0 .75 1 .0 1 .5 2 .0 2 .5 3 .0 3 .5 4 .0 4 .5 5 .0 .
Using the keys O (up) and P (down), the factor can be changed
− in the range 0 .10 to 1 .0 in increments of 0 .01
− in the range 1 .0 to 6 .0 in increments of 0 .1
Factor Calculation Example
As you add the components of your formula, the weight is displayed in "g ."
For legal metrology models, the displayed value is marked with an l symbol to
indicate computed values .
Suppose you want to weigh 250 ml for a basic formula that has a total of 1 l, and
you don't want to have to manually recalculate the individual components of the
formula .
The basic formula for 1 liter:
250 g 1st component
+
250 g 2nd component
+
500 g 3rd component
Total:
1000 g
Place the empty container on the weighing pan .
t
Briefly press the 0 key to tare .
t
Press the factor key $ several times until the factor " .25" is displayed below the
t
factor key .
Slowly add the first component "250 g" until the display shows "250 g ."
t
Add the second color component "250 g" until the display shows "500 g ."
t
Add the third component "500 g" until the display shows "1000 g ."
t
This concludes the calculation example . According to the display, exactly 1000 g was
poured in, but the paint can actually contains 250 g by weight in accordance with
the factor you selected .
The procedure is the same for any other conversion factor .
6.6.2 Weighing Using the Recalculation Function
Suppose that you poured in too much of one color component for a given formula
(in this example, a four-component recipe) .
This example further assumes that you previously poured in all of the other amounts
exactly according to each of the values you entered and saved them by pressing the
MEM key ! .
Press the P key to start the recalculation program .
t
"C" flashes on the display .
y
Correct the value using the O / P keys to match the specified formula value .
t
Press the MEM key ! .
