Once at the CAL Main menu
screen, press the 3 key. The
Digital Filtering screen will
appear as follows:
Motion Band: This value is used to set the scales stability lamp. It can be from 0 to 50 but should never
be less than 3. When the scale weight is stable, the stable symbol О is on; when the scale is unstable the
stable symbol is off. Higher value makes the weighing more stable but slower.
• Stable to Unstable: If there are 2 consecutive load cell readings whose difference is greater than
the Motion Band, then the stable lamp is shut off.
• Unstable to Stable: If there are 4 consecutive load cell readings whose difference between any
pair is less than or equal to the Motion Band, then the stable lamp is turned on.
Filter Band: This value is used to filter out small vibrations from noisy environments. It can be from 0 to 50
but should not be less than 10. The filter will also affect stability: the more filtering the more stable the
scale appears. Higher values will filter out more noise but will slow the weight response time.
• Filter: If there are Filter Sample Times number of consecutive load cell readings whose difference
is greater than the Filter Band, then they are not filtered; if they are less than or equal to the Filter Band,
then they are averaged together.
Filter Sample Times: This value controls the number of readings that the Filter Band uses. It can be from
0 to 16 but should not be less than 8. Higher values will smooth out sharp weight changes due to noise.
