10.8.1 ANIMAL WEIGHING PROCEDURE
•
With the platform empty the display will show zero weight.. Place containers
or blankets onto the platform and press the [Tare] key to zero the display.
The scale may go into the animal weighing procedure when the items are
placed on the scale but will return to showing zero when the [Tare] key is
pressed.
•
Place the animal to be weighed on the platform. The display will show “Ani”
until a stable weight is determined. The time it takes for the stable value will
depend upon the setting of the filter parameter in the first step.
•
When a stable reading is found, the display will show this value, and the
display will be locked until the [Unit] key is pressed. The display will show the
“Hold” symbol while the display is locked. Remove the animal, the display will
hold the weight value.
•
To weigh a second animal press the [Tare] key if necessary to zero the
display, and place the next animal on the scale. It is also possible to simply
place the next animal on the scale without clearing the last value first. The
scale will detect the new weight and hold it as before.
•
The scale will remain in the animal weighing mode until the [Zero] key is
pressed. Then it will return to normal weighing.
