Operating the Scale
53
Animal Weighing C
Purpose
Use this program to determine the
weights of unstable samples (e.g.,
live animals) or to determine weights
under unstable ambient conditions.
In this program, the scale calculates
the weight as the average of a
defined number of individual
weighing operations. These
weighing operations are also known
as “subweighing operations.”
You can use this application program
in combination with a program
chosen from Application 2
(checkweighing, time-controlled
functions) and one from Application
3 (totalizing, net-total formulation,
statistics).
Available Features
– Animal weighing started manually
or automatically
– Optional scale configuration in
the Setup menu for automatically
initializing this application
when you turn on the scale
– Minimum load threshold
(100 display increments) for auto-
matic start of animal weighing
– Start range: Automatic start of
animal weighing operation when
three successive subweights lie
within a user-defined tolerance
range (calm = 2%, normal = 5%,
active = 10%)
– Number of weighing operations
for calculation of an average
(mDef) can be set before
the beginning of each animal
weighing operation
– The factor for calculation
of the result can be set before
the beginning of each animal
weighing operation
– The number of subweighs
remaining to be performed is
indicated in the text display
during weighing
– Arithmetic average displayed as
a result in the pre-set weight unit
(identified by the a symbol).
– Optional multiplication of the
arithmetic average by a user-
defined factor Mul.
A circle “o” is displayed as
weight unit and Mul = xxx
is shown in the text line
– Toggling between the weight
and the calculated value by
pressing the xNet soft key and
the xRes soft key
– Automatic output of results via the
interface port:
– Number of weighing
operations mDef
– Multiplication factor Mul
– Automatic output of results
(printout) via the interface port:
– Weighing result xNet
– Calculated result xRes
– The unload threshold hold is
equal to one-half the minimum
scale capacity
– Return to weighing mode
by unloading the scale; i.e.,
when the load is below the
unload threshold

weigh next animal,
if desired

multiplication factor for
calculated the arithmetic
mean
