5.6 Totalization Counts
Counterpart has a totalization function that allows you to totalize the quantity of several weighings together.
This is especially helpful if putting together parts kits
Use the following steps to totalize parts.
1. Conduct a sampling process to determine the unit weight of the pieces. Or key in a known unit weight or
recall an ID.
2. Enter a known tare weight or place an empty container on the scale to perform tare function. If an ID was
recalled in step 1 its tare value is already loaded.
3. Place container 1 (full of parts) on the scale. The number of pieces in the container is shown in the ”PCS”
area of the display.
4. Press the Total + softkey to store the number of pieces in container 1. The memory ( M ) icon is shown. The
total value is shown in place of the piece weight value and will be labeled ”ttl”.
5. Remove container 1 and place container 2 (full of parts) on the scale.
6. Press the
Total + softkey, the accumulated total is now equal to container 1 plus container 2. The displayed
total is also updated.
7. Continue to add containers in the same totalization method. The total number of parts stored in all
containers will be stored in the totalization register and shown on the display.
5.7 Parts Reduction Counts
Parts reduction can also be done by using the - key while the scale is in the weighing mode and the memory
annunciator is on.
1. Conduct a sampling process to determine the unit weight of the pieces. Or key in a known weight or
recall an ID.
2. Enter known tare weight, or place an empty container on the scale to perform tare function. If ID was
recalled in step one its tare value is already loaded.
3. Place container (full of parts) on the scale. The number of pieces in the container is shown in the ”PCS”
area of the display.
4. Press the Total + softkey to store the number of pieces in the container. The memory ( M ) icon is shown.
The total value is shown in place of the piece weight value and will be labeled ”ttl”.
5. Remove the number of parts required from the container and press the Total - softkey. The accumulated
total will now be equal to previous total minus the number of pieces removed. The displayed total is also
updated. The number of pieces remaining in the container is shown in the
”PCS” area of the display.
6. Repeat step 5 as needed.
Once part reduction has been started, a press of Total + will give you an error message.
