    1 part in 10,000. On an IQ6200, a sample of 10 pieces and a total sample weight of 0.2% of full scale capacity would provide a sample weight resolution of (±) 1 part in 150 and a counting error of ±0.66 or higher. Increasing the total sample weight to 0.5% of full scale capacity would lower the counting error to ±0.26 or higher.

    Instructions for assessment of damage and further procedures will then be determined. Repacking If the IQ6200/6500 counting scale must be returned for modification, calibration, or repair, be sure that it is properly packed with sufficient cushioning materials and that it is locked to prevent damage to the load cells (see Section 2.3).

    This means that the weight of the sample is insufficient for the scale to make an accurate calculation. An example would be trying to weigh something as light as 10 paper clips on a 50 lb. IQ6200/6500 scale. You can override this message by pressing PIECES a second time without adding additional parts. However, using an insufficient sample may adversely affect scale accuracy.

    1. Determine the unit weight by the normal sampling procedure. 2. If the initial sample fits the recompute criteria, then an additional group of parts, usually one to three but up to eight times the initial sample size, may be placed onto the platform. Any number of parts will suffice if the recompute light remains on.

    The IQ6200/6500 counting scale accumulates up to 999,999. Programming Setpoints The IQ6200/6500 can utilize setpoints or continuous audible alarm points to alert the operator to a predeter- mined weight or quantity and an intermediate alarm to warn of its approach as weight is placed on the scale.
