Practical Example
Determining Animal Weight With Automatic Start of 20 Subweighing Operations for Averaging;
Automatic Printout of the Number of Subweighing Operations and of the Animal Weight
Settings (changes in the factory settings required for this example):
Setup: Application parameters: Application 1: Animal weighing: Animal activity: Active
Setup: Application parameters: Application 1: Animal weighing: Printout: Average and calculated values
Setup: Printout: Application-defined: Auto print upon initialization: All values
Step
Key (or instruction)
Display/Output
1. Delete previous setting if necessary
c
2. Prepare a container (cage)
Place empty cage
on the scale
3. Tare the scale
t
4. Enter number of subweighing
2 0
operations for averaging
5. Save number
mDef
soft key
6. Weigh the first animal
Place 1st animal in cage
weight value fluctuates due to animal activity
7. Start automatic animal weighing
Start
soft key
The scale delays starting the subweighing
When this criterion is met,
operation until three successive
the subweighing series begins
subweights lie within the range defined
for an “active” animal
