6.4 Setting a Lot Number
When storing item codes in the scale’s memory, you have the option to attach a lot number to that item. (See
Section 6.1.2) That lot number will appear on an item label unless overridden by setting a new lot number during
weighing operations. The procedure below allows the operator to enter and apply a lot number during counting,
weighing or packing operations and change lots without having to store a new lot number in each individual item
code. Note that this setting of a lot number for use during a weighing operation does not affect the lot number
stored with the individual item codes.
Note: SPEC 12 KEEP LOT NO IN REGISTRATION MODE must be at its default setting of "0: ALLOW" for this procedure
to work.
1. At the stand-by screen, call up an item code by entering the code from the numeric and/or alphanumeric
keyboards and pressing the
CODE key. You have two options at this point:
•If you want to print a label with a lot number has previously been entered, place the product on the
platter and press the
* REPRINT key.
•To set a new lot number, press the LOT NO key and enter a lot number of up to 32 digits from the
numeric keypad. Then put the product on the platter and press the
* REPRINT key.
2. The process can be repeated for more item codes, keeping the lot number the same or entering a new lot
number with each item code change.
3. When done, press the CLEAR key and remove the product from the scale platter.
6.5 Setting a Sequence Number
The scale can maintain and print a sequence number for transactions to aid in transaction tracking and auditing.
If the sequence number is set to “0”, no sequence number will be incremented or tracked. Otherwise the sequence
number will automatically increment by 1 each time a label is printed if you have added a sequence number to
your label design on your external printer.
1. At the stand-by screen, press the SEQ NO key. The display will show the current sequence number.
2. To set a new sequence number, enter up to 8 digits from the numeric keypad.
3. To save the new sequence number and exit, press the * REPRINT key. To exit without saving the new
sequence number, press the CLEAR key twice.
