Classification 
Application W
  With the Classification application, you 
can determine whether the weight of a 
given sample lies within the limits of a 
defined weight class.
 Characteristics
–  Classification with 3 or 5 weight classes. 
Configured in Setup under:

W: 4.8.

class: 4.8.
–  Enter the upper class limits using the 
keypad or by saving weight values from 
a load on the platform
–  Enter the upper limits of weight classes 
as absolute values or as a percentage 
of deviation from the upper limit of 
Class 1 Configured in the menu under:

  You can assign different functions to 
the c key for deleting applications. 
  When you clear applications, you can 
delete either the data stored for all 
applications or just the data stored for 
the active application. Configured in 
Setup under:
  Appl: sel.cf: 3.24. 
(Sel. CF function key c in 
applications)
–  Tare function:
1) If you store a tare (weight value) by 
pressing the ) key, you can later enter 
a value manually. The value you enter is 
added to the stored tare value. Setting: 
menu code 3.25.1 (factory setting)
2) A value entered manually overwrites 
a stored tare value (weight value).  
If you enter a value manually, a tare 
value (weight value) stored later 
overwrites the manually entered value.  
Setting: menu code 3.25.2

  To use the Classification application, you 
need to enter the delimiters that separate 
one class from another.
  Limits between the individual weight 
classes are required for the classification. 
The lower limit of Class 1 is defined by 
the preset minimum load. The other 
classes are configured by defining their 
upper limits. There are two ways to enter 
the delimiters for classes 1 through 3 
(or 5):
–  By saving the weight value indicated:
  Each upper limit value, with the 
exception of the highest class, is entered 
using the keypad or by saving the weight 
value of a load on the weighing platform.
–  By entering a percentage:
  The upper value of Class 1 is entered 
using the keypad or by saving the 
value indicated. Upper limits for the 
other classes are defined by entering a 
percentage of deviation from the upper 
limit of Class 1, using the keypad.
  Example: Enter 100 g as the upper 
limit of Class 1. Then enter 15%. 
  When working with 3 classes, this yields 
the following weight classes:
  Class 0: up to the minimum load
  Class 1: >minimum load - 100 g
  Class 2: >100 g – 115 g
  Class 3: >115 g - maximum load
  When working with 5 classes, this yields 
the following weight classes:
  Class 0: up to the minimum load
  Class 1: >minimum load - 100 g
  Class 2: >100 g – 115 g
  Class 3: >115 g – 130 g
  Class 4: >130 g – 145 g
  Class 5: >145 g - maximum load
  The initialization data remains valid 
until deleted by pressing the c key 
or until overwritten by a new value. 
They remain saved after the scale is 
switched off.
