3.4 ABC Meter View
The ABC meter view provides a virtual meter interface that is intended for dual-load-point weighing applications
that also monitors the sum of both loads (commonly referred to as A+B=C or simply ABC). Following is an
example ABC meter view in ScCMP.
Figure 3-7. ABC Meter View
The main weight display shows three virtual indicators (similar to the single meter view) with the current load on
the system, the units of measure, the weight mode, plus provides motion indication and center-of-zero (CoZ)
indication. The bottom left is A, the bottom right is B, and the top center is C. The radio buttons above the scale
function controls select which display is currently active for control. The currently active indicator will be
highlighted blue, the others will be a darker blue. Each of the three virtual indicators can be selected to show any
sensor. The default is to show the first weight sensors in A and B, then show the first math channel in C. Click on
the virtual indicator and a dialog will prompt for the sensor you wish to display in that indicator.
The total and statistics view is a complete table of all weight and math sensors. The total function supports several
modes of manual and auto total. Details of the total configuration can be viewed in Section 6.0 on page 19.
Total and statistics may not be updated if the monitor is not enabled from the Edit menu.
Three setpoint indicators show the Set/Clear state of each setpoint. These setpoints may not be related to the
currently displayed sensors. Setpoint configuration can be viewed in Section 6.0 on page 19.
The scale function controls on the lower right allow the ScaleCore device to be controlled from the computer.
Details of the scale functions are found in Table 3-4.
Net/Gross
Toggle the display between net and gross mode without clearing the current tare weight from the device (if
there is a tare weight).
Units
Change the units of measure for the current sensor.
Total
Manual total button for accumulating weight on the sensor. This function relies on the total function
configuration. Additional details are in Section 6.0 on page 19.
Clear Total
Clear all accumulated weight from the total register in the current sensor.
View Total
A control that will force a single read of the current sensor total data. This can be used when the total and
statistics monitor is disabled in the Edit menu.
Peak Mode
Toggles the device in and out of peak mode. The peak function may not be supported by all ScaleCore
products. Refer to your specific device manual for more details.
Peak Clear
Clear the current peak value and track a new peak value.
