Weigh Averaging
Purpose
Use this program to determine weights under
unstable ambient conditions. In this program,
the balance calculates the weight as the aver-
age value from a defined number of individual
weighing operations.
These weighing operations are also known as
“subweighing operations” or “subweighs.”
Preparation
Configure the Weigh Averaging application
in the operating menu: See “Configuring the
Balance.”
Menu code: 2. 1.12
$ Number of subweighs for weigh
averaging:
3. 3. 1 5 subweighs
3. 3. 2 10 subweighs
(factory setting)
3. 3. 3 20 subweighs
3. 3. 4 50 subweighs
3. 3. 5 100 subweighs
See also “Configuring the Balance”
Example
Determine the weight of a sample in extremely unstable ambient conditions by calculating the average
of 10 subweighing operations.
