When the LFT menu item setting is On, the following conditions apply:
• The Calibration (CAL) sub-menu is hidden.
• The Calibration Lock (LCAL) menu item is hidden.
• The Auto Zero Tracking (AZt) menu item is set to 0.5 d.
• lb:oz and P units are disabled.
When the weights and measures official has approved the scale for use, it should be sealed as
shown in Section 3.9.

3.9 Sealing the Scale

When used in conjunction with the Lockout menu and the security switch, the scale may be sealed
to prevent or detect unauthorized changes to scale settings. For Legal for Trade applications, set
the LFT menu item to ON, set the security slide to the On position (by sliding the switch to cover the
screw), then seal the scale to prevent access to the metrological parameters. Seal the scale
according to the local weights and measures regulations.
Sliding the switch to the ON position in V51PHXX models will freeze the menu item settings in their
current state
To regain access to the scale settings, break the seal and set the security slide to the OFF position.
