Marel M1100 - Multiple Range Operation; Range Options and Selection

Multiple Range Operation
On multiple range scales there are three range options available:
•
(default): the scale switches automatically from one range to
the other. The range of the weighing results on the Weight Display
changes from low to high when the load on the platform exceeds the
maximum capacity of the lower range, e.g. the load exceeds 15 kg on
a 30 kg scale.

When the scale switches to the high range, the Max2 indicator in the
bottom left corner of the M1100 indicator lights up.
The scale remains in the higher range, even if the load on the platform
becomes lighter again, until the scale has been steady on zero for a few
seconds or until you press the
ZERO key .

Note: If you use Normal or Automatic tare with the
range and
tare is set for the higher weighing range, the scale automatically cancels
the tare when it switches to the lower weighing range.
If you use Preset tare with the
range, you can only use values up
to Max1.
If you need to use tare in the higher weighing range, we recommend that
you simply fix the scale in the higher range by selecting the
range option instead and that way avoid the automatic cancellation of
tare.
