!
These parameters can be selected, de-selected or adjusted to fit the way you use the scale.
See below for descriptions.
ZTRACK (Zero Tracking) If “ON”, the scale will adjust for small weight
variances of up to 5lbs in the Lock-On weigh method. This allows
the scale to compensate for such things as mud or snow
accumulation on the scale platform.
W MTHD (Weigh Method) Weigh method allows the operator to adjust how
much number-crunching the scale processor does to the load cell
data before displaying the weight. See Appendix “C” for details.
Select weigh method #4 “Lock-On” for animal weighing.
LOCKON (Lock-On) Available settings are 1 thru 9. A low value, such as a
1 or 2, allows the system to be more sensitive to animal motion. A
high value, such as an 8 or 9, allows the scale to lock on faster.
Use the lowest setting that still allows the system to lock on
consistently.
