Calculation D
Purpose
With this application program you 
can calculate a weight value using an
algebraic equation. This can be used,
for example, to determine the gsm
weight (grams per square meter) of
paper.
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, 
formulation, statistics).
Available Features
– You can store an equation and 
configure the Setup menu to initialize
this program automatically with the
stored equation (Setup: ... Auto-start
application when power goes on: On)
– The o symbol is displayed to indicate 
a calculated value. The equation used 
is displayed in the text line 
– If no equation was entered, the weight
value is displayed
– Toggle between the weight readout,
equation input and display of the 
calculated result by pressing the
Start or Weigh soft key 
(or press c to toggle between 
weight and calculated value)
– There are four operators (+, –, *, /) and
one factor (weight value) available
when you enter an equation
– Max. equation length: 28 characters
– Pressing c will delete either the
equation or the last character entered,
depending on the configuration in 
the Setup menu (Setup: ... Keyboard: 
CF function for input: Delete last 
character; see also “Configuration”)
– The calculated result is displayed 
with the number of decimal places 
configured in the Setup menu. 
Not all decimal places are displayed if
the result is longer than the display
allows. If there are more digits before
the decimal point than the display can
show, an error message is displayed.
– The equation is stored in non-volatile
memory
