9. SPECIAL MODES
MULTIPLE WEIGH
When this feature is selected, several animals may be weighed together. Note that the
Condition Code entry is not available when Multiple Weigh is enabled.
Normally a new unused group should be selected before starting a session of
multiple animal weighings.
Load the animals on to the platform.
If required, enter the ID (tag number) of up to 8 digits on the numeric keypad.
Press CODE/MULTIPLE, then set the COUNT equal to the number of animals.
Press the WEIGH key to store a new record and display the details. The top display
shows the average animal weight and H (high), C (centre) or L (low) according to
the weight range of the average weight compared with the draft limits.
For example: H 82.5
ID=321
TOT WT = 990 kg
A press of the key, shows additional details on the lower display.
For example:
% OF WEIGHT = 45.4
GRP = 5 COUNT = 12
“% OF WEIGHT = 45.4” is the average kill-out weight of the animals, according to
the Kill-out Percent setting.
The record added to memory in the currently selected group consists of:
Count, Total Weight, Group, Date, ID Number (if used)
When weight statistics are displayed, the average weight of an individual animal is shown
(calculated from the sum of the Total Weights divided by the sum of the Counts).
When drafting statistics are calculated, the average animal weight in each multiple
weighing record is compared with the draft limits and the Count from that record added to
the High, Centre or Low numbers.
