Screen Formatting
The 9850 LCD Screen allows a wide variety of scale display screen setups. The illustrations here demonstrate
some of the possibilities. The custom display setup menus control the type and placement of available data types.
The LCD is a graphics type organized in rows and columns. The row size is fixed at 8 rows of 8 pixels each for a
total vertical size of 64 pixels. Column numbering depends on the font size chosen; 8 columns in the large font,
16 columns in the medium font, and 20 columns in the small font.
LARGE FONT – occupies 4 rows and is up to 8 columns wide. Shown here is
the maximum characters that can be shown in large font - 2 rows of 8 charac-
ters. The full ASCII character set is supported in the large font. Weight displays
in the large font add special characters for mode, units, COZ, and motion. All
other types of data are limited to 8 characters maximum.
The large font can occupy rows 1-4 or 5-8.
Large font characters can also occupy rows 3-6 as illustrated here. However
locating large font data on rows 3-6 prevents large font in other rows in the
same column.

MEDIUM FONT – occupies 2 rows and is up to 16 columns wide. Shown here
is the maximum number of medium characters possible.
The medium font must occupy rows 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, or 7-8. You cannot have a
medium font that occupies, for example, rows 2 and 3.
SMALL FONT – occupies 1 row and is up to 21 columns wide. This allows the
most information possible.
The small font can start on any row 1-8.
MIXING FONT SIZES – The custom display setup allows the user to mix font
sizes as needed. Use the large font for the primary weight display and mix in
medium and/or small fonts for less important data.
Here are examples of mixing font sizes on the screen. The first screen is an
example of a viable weight display with current weight programmed in the
large font, occupying rows 1-4. The Gross weight could occupy rows 5-6 in
medium font. Other scale information could be placed in small font on rows 7
and 8.
This example shows using the large font in the middle rows 3-6 and then plac-
ing other information above in 2 rows of small font, and below in 1 row of
medium font.
This final example shows the versatility of the setup menus. Here we have
small and medium fonts mixed on the same lines, and 1 character of large font
(perhaps used to identify the scale being used) placed at column 1 rows 3-6.
