4.3.2. COUNTING
The Omega Counting Scale can count item piece by weight. If the weight of
each item is known, the items are counted and numbered based upon the
weight upon the scale. For example, if total weight on the scale is 10
pounds, the piece weight of each item is 0.10 pounds. The scale will
perform an internal calculation and display 100 on the third pieces line of the
display.
There are two ways to set the piece weight. One is setup piece weight by
keypad input. The other is setup piece weight by sampling. (Reference
to Sample operation)
The ACC key on keypad is used to save current data. It provides a
convenient function to record the weight and piece data into memory. After
any record is saved, the scale weighing pan must be cleared to ensure
the weight is at zero for the next record.
4.3.3. PLU
PLU (Part Look Up) is a memory lookup number comprised of the Piece
Weight and Tare Weight. The scale can store up to 999 PLU’s into memory.
When you activate any PLU, the scale will replace the current Piece Weight
and Tare Weight with the PLU selected from memory.
