6.0 DENSITY PARAMETERS
To use the density function it is necessary to set parameters describing the liquid
used and the alloy being tested. These parameters can be set when the balance is in
the normal weighing mode.
6.1 SELECTING THE ALLOY TO TEST
The HCB J allows the alloy to be tested to be selected by the user. Select either Gold
(Au), Platinum (Pt), Silver (Ag) or disable the alloy selection and show the weight
only.
When displaying the weight press the [Air/Liquid] key to select the alloy to be
tested. The display will show the last alloy selected i.e. “ ON Au”
Select a new alloy by pressing the [Air/Liquid] or [Density] key to show “On Au” for
gold, “ON Pt” for Platinum, “ON Ag” for silver or “ON WEI” to display the weight
only.
Press the [Unit/CLR] key to return to weighing with the alloy selected active.
6.2 TEST OPTIONS
During normal weighing with the display showing zero weight, press the [Density]
key. If the display does not change to show Liquid check the parameter for the Hold
Function (section 7.2). If it has been set to off “Hd Off”, density is disabled and this
section will not operate. Set to Hold On, “Hd On”, or Hold Automatic, “Hd AU”, to
enable the density function.
The display will show Liquid to identify the section for setting parameters associated
with the liquid used.
Press [Tare] to enter this section or press [Air/Liquid] to view the Alloy parameters.
When Alloy is displayed press [Tare] to enter this section or press [Air/Liquid] to
return to the Liquid parameters.
6.3 LIQUID AND TEMPERATURE PARAMETERS
The parameters available are water (H2O) and any other user definable liquid. If
water is used and selected the next parameter will ask to determine the
