12. Counting Function

This function determines the number of objects in a sample based on the unit weight. The unit weight is stored in one of the code memory data in non-volatile memory, and is not lost even if the AC power supply is disconnected.

12.1. Using the Counting Function

Preparation: Set f07 1 in the F-Functions.

Select a code memory number. Refer to “9.1.1. Using Code Memory”.

Register the unit weigh. Refer to “12.2. Unit Weight Registration”.

Press the MODE key to enter the counting mode. The unit in the display changes to pcs.

In the counting mode, TARE, ZERO, NET/GROSS and other operations are the same as that in the normal weighing mode.

12.2. Unit Weight Registration

There are two methods to register the unit weight. One is to weigh the actual samples for unknown object's unit weight and the other way is by digital input of the unit weight by key or via the serial interface.

The unit weight is one item of the code memory data. Select the code memory number and start the unit weight registration in the weight display or piece count display. The unit weight registration can not be done from the code memory number display.

There is no counting accuracy improvement function by re-calculating the unit weight based on the actual weight.

Weigh Actual Samples

When the unit weight is unknown, prepare some samples to determine the unit weight.

Step 1

Enter the counting mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 2

Press the

SAMPLE

key to enter the unit weight registration.

5 0

or

5 -

is

 

displayed and unit pcs blinks. The left side of the display is the number of samples.

 

The right side of the display indicates the weight, 0

means that the weight is zero

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and

-

means that the display is not at zero.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 3

Select the number of samples and place the samples specified on the weighing

 

sensor unit. Using following keys:

 

 

 

 

 

 

0 - 9 key

The key to set the number of samples. Maximum is 9999.

 

+/- key

The key to select the number of samples, 5, 10, 20, 50,100.

 

 

 

................

The key to set the zero point.

 

 

 

 

 

 

ZERO

key

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

................

The key to tare. When using a container.
