Minimum Load for Initialization You can set the minimum load here, i.e. the load that must be placed on the
weighing platform in order to carry out the application. If the load on the platform is
too light, the following will occur:
– Error code Inf 29 appears,
– The weighing platform is not initialized,
– The preset reference sample quantity is saved.
Setting: Applic./Applic.1/ANIM.WG/Min.init menu item 3.6.
The minimum load can be set in 10 steps from 1 to 1000 digits (see available
parameters). The “digits” here refer to the scale intervals for the connected weighing
platform. If the interval of the connected platform is 1 g, for example, and 1000
digits are required, you must place at least 1000 g (= 1000 intervals =1000 digits)
on the weighing platform for initialization.
Starting the Measurements The averaging routine does not begin until the fl uctuation in weight value remains
below a defi ned threshold over three consecutive measurements. The tolerance limit
is defi ned as a percentage of the animal or object weight (for example, 0.1%, 0.2%,
..., 50%, 100%), confi gured in Setup under: Activity menu item 3.19.
If the “Averaging” parameter is set to 2%, for example, and the animal or object
weighs 10 kg, measurement does not begin until the fl uctuation in weight value
remains below 200 g during three consecutive measurements.
Display
A calculated average value is shown continuously on the main display. The G symbol
indicates the calculated value.
You can toggle between the results display and the current scale display by pressing
the w key.
Setting: Applic./Applic.1/ANIM.WG/DIS.UNLD menu item 3.21.
You can select “Display is static until unload threshold reached” to have the display
switch automatically to the weight readout when you unload the weighing platform
(i.e., when the load is less than half the minimum load). The result of the most recent
averaging operation is not saved.
If you select “Display is static until the c key is pressed,” the calculated average
remains displayed even after the weighing platform is unloaded, until you press the
c key to begin a new measurement.
Example: The weight of one mouse should be measured.
Confi guration: The “Animal Weighing” application is selected, and printout has been
set up (see “Confi guration”).
