Shimadzu AP W-AD Series User Manual

88
The AP Series applications include the application function mode, the comparator function mode, and the
minimum weight value setting mode. Statistical calculation, the comparator function and minimum weight value
(MW) setting can also be used in combination when in the application measurement mode. The application
function is a mode for changing the settings and measurement methods for the purpose of weighing samples in
accordance with the sample type and environment. ^ [Application Function Mode] (this page)
Statistical calculation calculates the statistic for measurement values to produce average values, standard
deviation values, maximum values and minimum values, etc.
^ [Performing Statistical calculation (Statistical calculation)] (P.117)
The comparator function is a function that finds a difference between the weighing values and the reference
values or target values.
^ [Comparator Function] (P.118)
Minimum weight (MW) setting is a function for evaluating [Minimum Weight Values] in order to inform the user
of the range that measurements can be safely carried out.
^ [Minimum Weighing Value Mode] (P.122)
Application Function Mode

Application Function Mode
The regular measurement mode is known as the Standard measurement mode, There is also an
application function mode that is useful to match the sample type and environment or conditions. The
application function mode contains the modes listed below. It is possible to select one of these modes
to use in accordance with the method of application.
Switching between the Standard measurement Mode and the Application Weighing Mode
It is possible to switch across to the general measurement mode when measuring weight by
pressing [ DOWN].
However, it is not possible to switch modes when using the Statistical calculation, comparator
or minimum weight value (MW) setting functions.

Add-on mode
Enables multiple samples to be weighed and the data for each sample to be output,
and creating records and adding the results at the same time. This mode is used when
formulating multiple samples. ^ [Measuring Large Quantities of Fine Samples (Add-on
