2. Press the UNITS key until “5 0” is indicated on the display. If the screen does not show “5 0”, press
the ZERO key once. The indicator is prompting you to place five identical items on the platform.
NOTE:
If you wish to change the sample number, simply press the UNITS key repeatedly until the
desired sample number appears. Available choices are 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100. If you continue to push
the UNITS key, the indicator will resort back to weighing mode and you must start again from Step 2.
3. Place the sample items on the platform all at once and allow the weight indication to stabilize. Once
this is done, press and hold the
UNIT/SET
for three seconds. If the sample size is large enough, the
indicator now displays the number of pieces on the platform and the “PCS” annunciator is lit. If not,
the indicator briefly displays “Lo” and automatically increments the sample size. Repeat step 3.
NOTE:
If the indicator continues to display “Lo” even after sampling 100 pieces, the unit weight of the
items you wish to count is too light for your scale to process accurately.
4. To exit the piece count mode, press the
UNIT/SET
key.
NOTE:
The APW will NOT remain in scale memory when you exit piece counting mode.
