5.4.13.2 Multiple Range Scale/Multi-Interval Scale
Range selection is controlled by three parameters under -[Weighingpoint]-[Calib]-[Param].
Weighingpoint/WP A/ Calibration
Range mode Multiple range
Select [Multiple range] or [Multi-interval]
Range limit 1 1000 kg Switch point from range 1 to 2
Range limit 2 2000 kg Switch point from range 2 to 3
Multiple Range Scale (Class III or one range scale Class I and II with variable interval)
With [Range mode] = [Multiple range], the scale has up to 3 ranges with different resolutions.
The corresponding ranges are indicated above the mass unit as follows:
, or
The switch points [Range limit 1] and [Range limit 2] are the range limits. As soon as the gross weight exceeds
range 1, the next higher range with the next higher interval becomes valid (1->2->5->10->20->50->100-
>200). When reducing the weight, the interval of the previous range is kept. When the gross weight is
≤0,25 d
of range 1 and the scale is stable and not tared, the scale returns to range 1 with the corresponding interval.
When reaching the next range if the tare has been set, a rounded tare value is displayed and printed according
to the new range.
Multi-Interval Scale (Class III or one range scale Class I and II with variable interval)
With [Range mode] = [Multi-interval], the scale has up to three ranges with different resolution. Each range
has the corresponding interval. Unlike [Multiple range], switching the interval is also triggered by weight
reduction; i.e., when the weight drops below the range limits.
During calibration, the multiple range/multi-interval function is always switched off.
Note:
If the W&M mode [OIML] has been selected, selection of the multi-interval scale
[Multi-interval] is not possible.
When selecting [Multi-interval], the following message is displayed:
Range mode multi interval
not allowed as long as
W&M is set to OIML
Display VNC
The weight display header includes the current range (R1, R2, and R3), Max, Min and d (or e with legal-for-
trade instruments) (Example: multiple range scale in range 2):
