About weighing
The Scale has three weighing modes: Automatic, Manual and Fine.
The Automatic and Manual weighing modes are optimised for
weighing live animals. The Fine mode is optimised for weighing static
objects.
The Scales measurement process
Automatic and Manual modes
The weight measurement process starts after an animal has entered the
weighing crate. As the animal moves about, the weighing platform
transmits to the Scale a stream of changing weight values. On the
Scale you can see the weight display change as the values are
received.
The Scale samples these values until it has received enough
information to calculate the animal's static weight. The calculated
weight is called the captured weight.
After capture, the weight display remains frozen at the value of the
captured weight even though the animal may continue to move about.
The time taken to make the analysis depends on the vigour of
movement of the animal being weighed. It takes longer for the Scale
to capture the weight of an animal that is agitated compared to one
that is calm.
Fine mode
The Scale continuously updates the weight recorded.
