Pressing the Autotally button alternately turns the Autotally mode on or off, and the text

When the Autotally button is pressed to enable the function, ‘Clr?” will be displayed and flash.
You have the choice of clearing the existing statistics in the indicator by pressing OK or the up
key, or to add to the existing statistics by pressing the down key.
Autotally will function irrespective of whether drafting has been set up. If drafting is not

If autotally is enabled and a livestock mode is active, when a stable weight has been
detected it is automatically added to the statistics. The weight will disappear from the
display for 0.5 seconds to indicate that the statistics have been updated.
If an animal has not walked completely onto the weighing platform by the time that
