5.3 Event Counter
A Category 1 Event Counter is provided on the 201 with two counters that
increment when a change is made to features that are required by NTEP or
OIML to be sealed. One counter is designated for calibration (metrological)
parameters and one is designated for configuration (non- metrological) changes
as required in NCWM Publication 14, 2007. Each event counter has a capacity
to record 99999 changes. The data for the counters is maintained in non-
volatile memory and can be viewed by a weights and measures inspector.
When selected, the display will show the number of changes to the
Configuration and the Calibration counters.
CFg= (Configuration Counter)
The configuration counter is incremented when a value in the non-
meteorological part of setup is changed. The counter is only incremented
1 time even if more than one parameter is changed each time through
setup. The value displayed will be between 0 and 99999.
CAL= (Calibration Counter)
The calibration counter is incremented when a value in the meteorological
part of setup is changed. The counter is only incremented 1 time even if
more than one parameter is changed each time through setup. The
value displayed will be between 0 and 99999.
