Methods of Operation

The Weigh II has two methods of operation:

• Vessel Monitoring — vessel parameters

(weight, level, or some other indication of
vessel contents) are displayed on the LCD.
Vessel monitoring can be set to monitor
and display information on each of the
vessels in the system (Auto Mode)
sequentially or on only one vessel (Manual
Mode). When in the Manual Mode, use of
the keyboard allows the user to manually
scroll to other vessels.

• Menu Operation — system parameters for

display, input/output, calibration,
and troubleshooting can be viewed
and modified.

Note

Throughout this manual, the term
“weight” is used to refer to an indica-
tion of the quantity of material in the
vessel. However, the Weigh II can be
set up to display weight, level, volume,
percentage, voltage, or current associ-
ated with the material quantity (see
Chapter 4, Display). If you are using
some measure other than weight, all
inputs must be consistent with your
chosen measure.

Manual Conventions

Three kinds of special explanations appear
throughout the manual — WARNING, CAU-
TION, and Note. The format and significance
of each is defined below:
