Pre-Alarm
The Pre-Alarm feature is an “early warning” for the preset weight. For example, if
the Pre-Alarm is set for a value of 100 lbs. and the preset weight is 1000 lbs. the
preset alarm will flash during the last 100 lbs. of the preset.
The Pre-Alarm provides an early warning before reaching the preset which allows
the operator to be more accurate.

Auto-Advance
The auto advance feature allows for hands free operation of programmed recipes
and pens. When the auto advance feature is activated, the indicator
automatically prints and advances to the next ingredient or pen once the
tolerance and delay time requirements have been met. Tolerance and delay time
requirements are explained below.
The Tolerance feature is a “tolerance window” for the preset ingredient or pen
during batching. For example, if the tolerance is set to 5% and the preset is 1000
lbs., the “tolerance window” is 50lbs. The scale is in the “tolerance window” when
the display is between 50 and –50 lbs.
The auto-advance function activates the Delay Time while the weight is in the
tolerance window. The Delay Time allows the operator to slightly “under or over
shoot” and ingredient or pen amount and still automatically advance to the next
ingredient or pen. The auto-advance Delay Timer resets every time the weight
moves out of the tolerance window.
To Change the Tolerance
Enter short cut number: “442” and press [Select].
Press [Select] to choose desires percentage.
Press [On] to store the setting.
Tolerance Percentage settings: OFF, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, or 10.
