11.3.4 Settings for the start of weighing

In the “Start Mode” menu, you must specify how a weighing cycle should be started.

“Step procedure”: No automatic start: Each measurement cycle must be started

manually and the “Start” function key must be active (section

11.3.2). Loading and removing the object that is being weighed

must be conﬁrmed.

“AutoStart”: A measurement cycle is started automatically as soon as the

weighing object is placed on the balance which is heavier

than the speciﬁed minimum weight. To change the minimum

weight, press the corresponding button, and a numeric input

ﬁeld will appear into which you can type the minimum weight

value in grams. The purpose of the minimum weight value is

to check whether or not there is a weighing object on the bal-

ance. Deﬁne the minimum weight value so that it is less than

the weight of your lightest weighing object, but not so low that

even slight soiling of the weighing pan, or vibrations, trigger a

weighing.

Note: If the “AutoTare” function is activated, the display is au-

tomatically reset to zero after each weighing is completed.

“Quick procedure”: No automatic start: Each measurement cycle must be started

manually and the “Start” function key must be active (section

11.3.2). Different than the “Step procedure”, loading the object

being weighed does not have to be conﬁrmed, and the measure-

ment starts immediately when you press the “Start”function

key. Unloading the object being weighed also does not have

to be conﬁrmed.

The “AutoTare” function is inactive; if necessary, weighing con-

tainers must be tared manually before the measurement.

To ensure backward compatibility with earlier products, only

the weight values that are determined are recorded in the

protocol, irrespective of the selected protocol settings. The

settings for formatting the output data are ignored. The values

are protocolled in a ﬁxed format and the “*” symbol is inserted

before each value.

Factory setting: “AutoStart” (minimum weight 5.00 g)
