Timers

There are 9 timers that can be used to trigger a function after a time interval. Each timer
has 2 parameters: Time (x0.1sec) and Function number. Use the

Cont.(↓↓↓↓) and

Review(↑↑↑↑) keys to position the edit block to a parameter value. Use the numeric keypad

to enter a new value. Press the

Enter key to complete the entry. Press the Clear Entry

key to exit timer data entry.

mode, enter a ‘N’ to disable debug mode. When debug mode is enabled Scale Basic

functions execute a ‘single step’ at a time

Display Update Rate (2)

Enter the time between display updates (in tenths of a second). An update rate of 1

causes a 0.1 second delay between display updates, a rate of 200 causes a 20 second delay

between updates. NOTE: motion detection is calculated using the weight values of the

display rate. If the update rate is 50, the motion calculation is based on weight readings

sampled at 5second intervals.

Enable TTL Inputs (Y)

Enter a Y to use TTL inputs 1-4 to activate scale basic functions 1 - 4. For example,

grounding TB3 pin 1 (TTL input 1) activates scale basic function 1.
Enter an ‘N’ to disable the TTL inputs.
