OHAUS Discovery Application Modes
Percent Weighing Mode
This mode allows the user to display the weight of a sample as
a percentage of a reference weight useful in sieving applications,
reagent weighing, moisture determination, and other types of
ingredient mixing.
Parts Counting Mode
Parts counting mode is useful when counting pills, or parts
that have a consistent, but low nominal mass. This mode
allows the user to count based on a calculated piece weight.
The optimization feature improves counting accuracy by automatically re-calculating the piece weight as
parts are added.
Check Weighing Mode
This mode allows the user to check the weight of a sample against
preset target parameters such as underweight and overweight.
Animal/Dynamic Weighing Mode
Dynamic weighing can be used when either a rough environment
is encountered such as on a ship, or when in a location that may not have ideal conditions. In addition,
this mode allows the user to weigh moving objects such as animals, insects or other moving specimens.
Dynamic weighing averages out weight readings over a period of time and displays the results until
cleared.
Totalization Mode
This mode allows the user to sum a series of sample weights that can
be greater than the capacity of the balance. Totalization is helpful
when adding the masses of several samples together without the
need for a calculator.
High Point Mode
High Point can be used when analyzing batches or lots, or for quality
checking of random samples. When in High Point mode, the balance will save only the highest weight
value from a series of weighings.
