8.3. Scale with Standard Load Cells
Important: The sensor type already has been set to “LDU” (see Fig. 8.2; Register “Communication“). 
If you have to configure a multi scale system, then select the wished scale no. ("1" or "2") within the weight 
display (Fig. 7.1).

Sensor address: 
Defines the address for the LDU (see table below for the factory settings) and enables 
the LDU (by activating the check box besides the input field) 
Note: The address in parentheses will be used for the second LDU, if two LDUs of the 
same type will be used.

Comment
Single-interval
The scale has exactly one weighing range with a constant scale 
interval 
Multi-range
The scale has 2 or 3 weighing ranges with different scale intervals. If 
the current gros value of the measured weight falls within the next 
weighing range and larger scale interval (changeover threshold 1 and 
2), then the larger scale interval remains active until the scale will be 
unloaded and will return to the zero point. 
Multi-interval
The scale has 2 or 3 weighing ranges with different scale intervals. 
The current gros value of the measured weight determines the active 
weighing range and the active scale interval at any time. 
Scale interval 1/2/3: Step size of the display resolution for the scale respective the weighing range 
 
Decimals:
Number of digits after the decimal point
Unit:
Weight unit for the displayed weight: g, kg, t or lb
No-motion range / 
period: 
Condition for a stable scale (no. of scale intervals, no. of measured values); 
Default: 2d and 10 values in legal for trade applications; in industrial applications these 
criteria may be modified 
Max. capacity:
Maximum load of the scale (as a multiple of the scale interval e1)
