key will enter the displayed group, allowing access to the items within the group. The key can be
used to cycle through the available items. The key is then used to edit the item.
7.4 Setup Menus
The following sections describe the setup parameters of each of the Groups and Items in Setup.
7.4.1 BUILD (Scale Build)
Settings within this Group are used to configure the indicator to suit the current application. It is important to fully
set the options within this group before calibration is attempted. Later changes to items within this group may
invalidate the current calibration data.
•
DP (Decimal Point Position)
Sets the location of the decimal point on the display. To avoid confusion, set this parameter first so that all other
weight related values are displayed with the decimal point in the correct position.
•
Can be set from 000000 (none) to 0.00000
•
Default: 000000
•
CAP (Maximum Capacity)
Sets the nominal maximum capacity (or full scale) of the scale. This is set in weighing units (e.g. lb, t, etc.), with
the decimal point in place. For example, if a scale is to weigh 500.0 lb in 0.5 lb increments, CAP is set to 500.0,
and RES is set to 5.
•
Range: 000100 to 999999
•
Default: 003000
•
RES (Count-by Resolution)
Sets the resolution (or Count-by) of the display. The resolution is the number by which the indicator will count.
•
Options are: 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 or 100
•
Default: 1
•
UNITS (Weighed Units)
Sets the units for display and printing.
•
Options are: (g) grams, (kg) kilograms, (lb) pounds, (t) tons, ( ) none (i.e. other units).
•
Default: kg
•
HI.RES (High Resolution x 10 mode)
Sets the instrument to display weight at 10 times resolution. This is intended for test purposes but may be used
for non-trade weighing.
•
Options are: ON or OFF
•
Default: OFF
•
CABLE (4-Wire or 6-Wire)
Sets the load cell input to operate in 4-wire (auto sense) or 6-wire mode.
•
Options are: 4 or 6
•
Default: 6
7.4.2 OPTION (Scale Options)
Items within this group are used to configure the operating parameters of the scale.
•
USE (Scale Use)
This is where the basic use of the scale is set. This setting configures the instrument for Industrial, OIML or
NTEP operation. Refer to Industrial vs. OIML and NTEP Mode section 6.4 for more information.
•
Options are: INDUST (Industrial), OIML or NTEP
•
Default: INDUST
•
FILTER (Reading Average)
The instrument can average a number of consecutive readings when calculating the displayed weight. This is
