5.1.2 PAR Menu Parameters
Par. Description Values
1.P Number of display digits. 4, 5, 6
2.P Number of digits after decimal point. Defines the position of the
decimal point*.
0-5
3.P Display resolution*. 1-200
4.P First two digits of full load. 00-99
5.P Digital filter. If set to X, filter averages 2
x
samples. 0-5
6.P Number of conversions per second. If there are two scales
connected, the sum of their conversion rates (6P+6P) must be less
than 70. Otherwise the unit sets 6.P=14 for each scale.
3, 7, 14, 28, 57, 70
7.P No-motion samples. If set to X, samples = 2
x
. 1-7
8.1 Zero Tracking. In Display resolution (3.P) units / 1 second. 0F=disabled 0.5, 1,
2, 3, 5, 9.
8.2 Auto-zero at power up. 0=NO 1=YES
8.3 Dual digital filter (Antiflicker). 0=NO 1=YES
8.4
Automatically clear A/D converter error (Error 05).
NO specifies that, when the A/D converter is enabled, errors are
automatically cleared when the cause is no longer present.
YES specifies that A/D converter errors should remain on the display
until the operator presses PRINT.
0=NO 1=YES
8.5 Flash low battery indicator. 0=NO 1=YES
8.6 Leading zero blank. 0=NO 1=YES
8.7
Load cell amplifier gain adjustment (A/D Gain)
2mV/V setting allows maximum utilization of 1.75mV/V.
4mV/V setting allows maximum utilization of 3.75mV/V.
0=2mV/V
(1.75mV/V utilization)
1=4mV/V
(3.75mV/V utilization)
8.8
AC/DC excitation.
AC sets load cell excitation to AC, and specifies that polarity excitation
should be switched at the conversion rate. Switching excitation results
in a more stable zero.
DC sets load cell excitation to DC.
0=AC 1=DC
8.9
Second scale connected (second analog input).
Enables/disables the SCALE button.
0=NO 1=YES
8.A Zero range. Some operations, including taring and printing, are only
active within the zero range.
0=2% 1=10%
8.b Dual interval or range. This parameter is not relevant if 0.P=00. 0=interval 1=range
8.c Unit select. Specifies if weights are measured in kilograms or
pounds.
0=Kg 1=Lb
0.P First two digits of weighing range, defining the limit between the
2 weighing ranges, the lower display division is automatically selected.
If set to 00, disables interval / range.
00 - 99
* Refer to Section 5.1.3 for how to set parameters when using two scales.
