Cntby
This menu is used to set up the display to
count by increments of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50,
100, 200, 500, 1000, 5000, or 10000. For
example, a Cntby of 1 would show the
rightmost active digit on the display changing
by increments of 1. A Cntby of 100 would
show the rightmost three active digits on the
display changing by increments of 100 units.
Use Cntby to adjust the display to a resolu-
tion consistent with the accuracy of the
system and reduce display flickering.
Example: For a 10,000 lb maximum weight
with a Form of XXXXX, a Cntby of 1 would only
be meaningful if your system accuracy was
+/-.01% of maximum load. A more typical
accuracy would be +/-3%. Since 3% of
10,000 lbs is 300 lbs, a more realistic Cntby
for this system would be 200.
Note that the selection for Form affects how
the Weigh II interprets the Cntby value.
Table 4-1 shows some examples of how
these are related.
