Preparation
To calculate a value in percent, the reference percentage must be known. This
value can be entered into the weighing-in-percent program in one of three ways:
– The last reference percentage entered is loaded and displayed when
you turn on the scale. Place the corresponding weight on the scale and
initialize the weighing-in-percent program;
– With automatic initialization switched on (see previous page), the scale
goes into the “weighing in percent” mode when you turn on the power and
loads the last reference percentage entered as well as the corresponding
reference weight (Setup: Printout: Application-defined output: Auto print upon
initialization: All values);
– Enter the reference weight using the numeric keys and store it (
Wxx% soft key).

Equations
The following equations are used for the corresponding calculations:
Residue = Current weight ÷ 100% weight x 100%
Loss = (Current weight – 100% weight) ÷ 100% weight x 100%
Ratio1 = (100% weight – current weight) ÷ current weight x 100%
Ratio2 = 100% weight ÷ current weight x 100%
