Salter Brecknell 800 Series - Manual (Page 35)

7.3.6 PIECE COUNTING - KNOWN AVERAGE PIECE WEIGHT
This mode is used to indicate the number of pieces of an item you have placed on
the scale’s platform and is accessed by pressing the UNITS key. To ensure
accuracy, the parts you are counting must be consistent in weight.
If you know beforehand the average piece weight of the items you wish to count,
you may enter that value into the indicator at any time.
For your convenience, the 800 series indicator retains the APW value even when
the unit is powered off.
NOTE : Piece counting must be enabled in the Setup Menu in order to use this
feature. See Chapter 4 for more information.
1. Use the UNITS key to select the unit (lb or kg) of the known average piece
weight value.
2. Use the numeric keys to enter the known average piece weight value into the
indicator.
3. Press the APW key. If the entered APW is not too light for your scale to process
accurately, the indicator briefly displays “SET” and reverts to piece count mode
by lighting the “PCS” annunciator.
4. To exit the piece count mode, press the UNITS key. The same APW value will
remain in scale memory until you repeat Step # 2.
7.3.7 CLEARING THE AVERAGE PIECE WEIGHT VALUE
1. While the indicator is displaying pieces (PCS annunciator lit), press the CL key.
7.3.8 ENTERING AN ID NUMBER
NOTE : To use this feature, ID Number and Print Ticket mode must be enabled in
the User Menu. See Chapter 4 for more information.
Normally, the ID Number value set in the User Menu is printed on the print ticket. If
you wish instead to key-in a new ID Number each time a ticket is printed, you may
follow the procedure below before pressing the 0 (PRINT) key.
1. Use the numeric keys to enter the new ID Number value into the indicator.
2. Press the UNITS key. The indicator briefly displays “SET”.
3. Press the 0 (PRINT) key. The current ID Number now reverts back to the value
saved in A5 of the User Menu.
