WEIGH METHODS
Select weigh method #4 for animal weighing. When weighing dead loads, you
can still use the Lock-On Weigh method but you may wish to use one of the
other methods listed below.
GENERAL WEIGH METHOD
All-purpose weigh method for weighing dead loads. It is used for most
applications.
SLOW WEIGH METHOD
Attempts to provide higher accuracy by filtering many weight samples over a
longer period. Use for weighing dead loads.
FAST WEIGH METHOD
The Fast weigh method is more sensitive to weight changes than the other
weigh methods. When a weight changes quickly, the Fast method tries to
determine the new weight as quickly as possible. This method is for weighing
dead loads.
LOCK-ON WEIGH METHOD
Weighs active animals and displays stable accurate weight. Lock-On
sensitivity adjusted using “LOCKON” menu.
• Once actual weight is displayed, scale “Locks-On” to weight.
• Weight is displayed stable, even if motion never stops.
• Small ‘L’ appears on left side of display indicating weight “Locked-
On.”
• Animal’s weight must be greater than 0.67% of scales “capacity”
weight before system can “Lock-On.”
Note: Customers should use a weight value for Zero Tracking (
ZTRACK
)
that is less than 0.67% of capacity.
To break lock, add or remove preset percentage of displayed weight. The
default setting is 50%.
• The weight value that is used to “break the lock” and return to
normal weighing can be selected by choosing a value from 01 to
99%. For example, if unlock is set to 10(%) and weight is locked at
1000, display will “unlock” and return to normal weighing at 900,
once 10% (100) is removed.
• “Locked-On” weight can be “rechecked”, pressing . breaks
“lock” and scale recalculates weight.
