6.3 Animal weighing
This feature permits weighing small animals directly on the balance. If an animal cage is used, the balance can be
tared (weight of cage is subtracted) and then the subject is placed in the cage and weighed. An averaging filter
compensates for animal movements. The filter can be set in a range from Good to Best. The large numeric display
indicates the weight of the subject and the bar graph indicates balance capacity used.
