8.4.2. OPTION (Scale Options)
Items within this Group are used to configure the operating parameters of the scale.
USE
(Scale Use)
This is where the basic use of the scale is set. This setting configures the
instrument for Industrial, OIML, or NTEP operation
.
Refer to Industrial vs OIML
and NTEP Mode page 24 for more information.
Default: INDUST
FILTER
(Reading
Average)
The instrument can average a number of consecutive readings when calculating
the displayed weight. This is used to dampen unwanted weight fluctuations
caused by vibrations or dynamic forces. High settings will stabilise the display at
the expense of rapid response to sudden weight changes.
Options are: NONE, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 (time in seconds)
Default: 0.5 (seconds)
MOTION
(Motion
Detection)
Sets how much weight variation over a defined time period is allowed before the
displayed weight is deemed to be unstable. This value is displayed as weight
change (0.5 or 1.0 graduations) per second. When set to
OFF
, the Motion
Detection is ignored and ZERO, TARE and PRINT actions are instantaneous.
Options: OFF, 0.5-1.0, 1.0-1.0, 3.0-1.0, 0.5-0.5, 1.0-0.5, 3.0-0.5 (graduations
per second)
Default: 0.5-1.0 (0.5 graduations per second)
INIT.Z
(Initial-Zero on
Startup)
This function can be used to automatically ZERO the indicator during power-up.
The amount of weight that can be zeroed is limited to +/
– 10% of full scale.
Options are: ON or OFF
Default: OFF
Z.TRAC
(Zero Tracking
Sensitivity)
Zero tracking allows the display to adjust for minor changes in the zero balance
of the scale. When enabled, the instrument will track weight readings within the
zero 'dead' band back to exactly zero at a maximum rate of 0.5 (SLOW), 3
(MED) or 10 (FAST) graduations per second.
Options are: OFF, SLOW, MED, FAST
Default: OFF
Z.RANGE
(Allowable
Zero Operating
Range)
This setting restricts the range over which the Zero functions can operate.
Options are: -2_ 2, -1_ 3, -20_20, FULL
Default: -2_ 2 (
–2% to +2%)
Z.BAND
(Zero 'Dead'
Band)
This is an adjustable margin either side of true zero that defines the zero 'dead'
band. The zero 'dead' band is used by the automated functions to determine
zero load (eg. a setting of 4 specifies that readings between
–4.5 and 4.5 are
considered to be zero).
When the displayed weight reading is within this band the instrument displays
the
zero band
annunciator. Refer to 5.1Display page 19.
Settable over the full weight range. Always enter a number in multiples of
display units. Refer to RES
page 30 for more information.
Default: 0 (ie.
–0.5 to 0.5 graduations)
R.ENTRY
(Entry Means
to Full Setup)
This setting can be used to restrict access to the full setup. The first entry to the
full setup menu using the push button on the rear of the instrument causes all
future access to the full setup to be restricted to the push button.
Options are: OFF, ON
Default: OFF
