E.4.1.4 Stabilization Criterion (Tare & Stop)

At the beginning and at the end of a filling cycle the board waits for the scale to stabilize in order to read its weight. Hence, some stability criterion is required. The board requires that all readings within ‘Delta Time’ will be inside a range whose width is ‘Delta Weight’, both at the beginning (Tare) and at the end (Stop) of the filling cycle. The waiting for that stabilization is limited by ‘Timeout’, causing an error situation in case of failure.

Delta Weight

See the description above.

Delta Time

See the description above.

Stabilization Timeout

See the description above.

Impacts

The system copes with impacts and automatically resumes the filling in case the current weight – after stabilization – is less than the current setpoint.

E.4.1.5 Lazy Filling

Activate

When checked, the board will identify too slow filling, thus reporting an error earlier than the ‘Timeout’ check would do.
