13. Enhancing Productivity
Functions that are useful mainly in production sites are described in this chapter.
Only one of the functions in the menu group 4 (Refer to 7.3) ( 41 to 53) can be used at a
time. When one of the functions in menu group 4 is to be used with a weighing unit other
than gram, select the function from the gram-display first. Then, change to the other unit
with the [UNIT] key. To release this function, use the [POWER] key. For returning to the
previous function, Last Menu Recall function is convenient. There are some other
combinations of functions that can be used together. Some functions employ the value set
in Zero Range setting (refer to 13.5).
13.1 Checkweighing and Target Display
Analog display section
The UW/UX series balance has an analog bar graph located on the left side of the display.
This graph can be conveniently used for checkweighing or cumulative weighing.
The graphic display functions include the two display modes of checkweighing, the target
mode, and full scale mode. Only one of them can be used at a time. Refer to 9.1 for the full
scale mode and the no bar graph display.
Upon selection of either the checkweighing mode or the target mode, the numerical value
for threshold or target is requested. Numeric values are memorized independently for each
graphic display mode. When one of the checkweighing modes is selected, a signal
corresponding to HI, GO, or LO in thegraphic display can be transmitted via the RS-
232C/AUX connector. Target, limit, upper, and lower values are set as numeric values only.
Set the correct numerical value for the unit that will be used for weighing.
x In weighing mode, changing the displayed unit does NOT change the target, limit, upper,
or lower numeric values. For example, when the upper limit has been set at 10g, switching
the unit from “g” to “kg” does not change the limit to 10kg. It will be 0.01kg.
The decimal point is invisible in the value setting display. Determine its position based on
the resolution of the balance. For example, if the balance’s minimum display is 0.01g,
150g must be set by inputting “15000” in the display.
