Totalizing

When more than one scale is being used, the last one in line can be used to show the total
weight of all the scales added together. To totalize, turn on the scales in sequential order
starting with the master scale (“scale A") and make sure all of the slave scales are in the total
mode. The indicating bar on the upper left side of the display is on when in the total mode. This
does not mean that the scale is receiving; only that it is capable of receiving.

If transmitting on demand, press the print button on the master scale and the last scale in line
(slave scale D in the diagram) will show the total weight of all the scales.

Example:

Scale A will display the total of A only.

Scale B will display the total of A + B.

Scale C will display the total of A + B + C.

Scale D will display the total of A + B + C + D.

Printing

Use the print button on the master scale when printing. If more than one scale is being used,
put the slave scale(s) in the total mode. This will allow the printer to print the total weight of all
the scales.

NOTE: The important thing to remember is that the printer will print whatever is displayed
on the last scale in line before the printer.

In addition to the weight, the printer will print a letter that signifies the number of scales that it
printed the weight from.
Example: The letter A signifies the weight is from one scale. The letter B signifies the weight is
from two scales etc..
