6.0 OPERATION
• The basic weighing functions are same for both the scales- local
and remote. However the number of weighing divisions may be
less on the remote scale dependant on the total capacity of the
load cell/s used.
• Each scale (local or remote) has the ability to count parts based
on the current unit weight. This is best obtained by performing a
sample on the local scale which may have the best sensitivity.
Then the scale can be switched to the remote where large
quantities can be counted.
• Each scale has a separate tare value that can be entered through
the keypad or by placing a weight on the platform and pressing
the [Tare/Zero] key. The tare value for each scale is retained as
the user switches between the remote and local scales.
• Either scale can be used to determine a unit weight.
• When the scale is switched from local to remote, a clear display
will be shown to identify the change and the scales will count
based on the tare and unit weight currently in use for the scale
selected. Display for the change is:
“c h A n g E” ”L o c A L“ and “c h A n g E” ”r e m o t E “
The display will be based on the 7 segment interpretations, some
of the letters are shown later.
• The switch from local scale to remote scale should be possible at
any time by pressing the [Local/Rem] key or if the user enables
the function it can happen anytime the weight on the remote scale
changes from negative value or zero to a positive value greater
than 50d.
NOTE: For frequently used items, counting is made easier by using PLU
numbers (Product Look Up). Up to 100 PLU’s can be stored and
recalled. See section 6.4 on PLU for details. Place the item on the pan
and enter using the keypad “PLUxx” (where xx is the PLU number
associated with that item). The scale will display the Total Weight, Unit
weight and the Count of the item in the respective windows.
