Once a successful accumulation has occurred, press the LOCAL/TOTAL button to toggle
the display through the current local weight, current total weight, accumulated total, and the
number of accumulations that make up the total.


Note: The scale will not accumulate and will display the error message “Ac

Ac

Ac

Ac.Err

Err

Err

Err” if the

current weight is negative, zero, or if the weight is in motion. These Protections are added
to ensure that only valid readings are accumulated into the total. Also, after a successful
accumulation, ALL scales in the system must return to zero before you accumulate the next
weight. If you attempt to accumulate the next weight before allowing the scale(s) to return
to zero, the error message “Ac

Ac

Ac

Ac.Err

Err

Err

Err” will be displayed.

The accumulated total weight can be viewed only on the scale you are accumulating from.
After the PRINT/ACCUMULATE button is first pushed; the display will show “Ac

Ac

Ac

Ac. X” as the

system will accumulate the next reading and send it to print. (X will show the number of
accumulations this session) Once a successful accumulation has occurred, pressing the
LOCAL/TOTAL button will cycle the display to show number of accumulations, current local
weight, current total weight on all scales, and the accumulated total. When the local
weight, current total weight, or accumulated total is displayed, the total icon will be lit up,
flashing, or off. (as shown in the display description).

Note: In print-mode 3 it can accumulate either in local or total weight, but not when viewing
the accumulated total.

To clear the accumulated total weight, press and hold the ZERO button until the display
shows “CLr

Accumulating Procedure:

1. With your system setup correctly, decide which scale you will accumulate from. This can be

any scale, but once you choose, you must only accumulate with that scale until the weighing
is complete. This scale needs to be set to your desired accumulate mode, 2 or 3 (See “Serial
Output Setup”). If you are using a printer, select the scale directly connected to the printer.


2. With the first group of items stable on the scales, press the PRINT/ACCUMULATE button. If

you are using a printer, a print ticket with all weights will now be printed. The display will
return to the setting that the accumulation was taken from. This first group’s weight will
become the accumulated total, which can be seen on the display by pressing the
LOCAL/TOTAL button as described in the previous section with the TOTAL icon flashing.
Another accumulation can not be made in the standard mode if the scale is in the
