Operating instructions

The “Differential Weighing” Application
151
For specific cases, you can also activate these three function keys. These enable you to
transfer the first tare value to all further samples, and allow differential weighing for a
series without taring (section 12.5.6).
12.5.3 Differential Weighing: Automatic Procedure
This description only applies if you have selected the automatic procedure for the se-
ries.
Note: The automatic procedure guides you through method 1 or 2. You can exit automatic
processing and switch to manual processing at any time. Conversely, you can also switch
from manual to automatic processing at any time.
Preparatory steps
The series that is currently active is displayed in the “Series ID” information field. If you
want to process a different series, press the “Series” function key and select the required
series.
Note: To prevent incorrect operation, only the function keys available for the next operating
step are active (all other keys are displayed in gray and cannot be selected).
If you want to change the default sample ID and have not already done so when defining
the series (section 12.4.1), press the “Sample ID” function key and enter the required
name for each sample. The selected names are also displayed on the protocols.
Taring and weighing in samples
Press the “T & wgh. in” function key to start differential weighing.
Note: In this function, taring and weighing in are performed in a single procedure. If you
want to separate the two procedures, you can define separate function keys for taring and
for weighing in (section 12.3.2).
The balance displays the first sample in the series for which no tare and weight values
are available. If you want to tare and weigh in a different sample, press the arrow key at
the bottom of the window. In this example, however, we presume that you want to start
with the first sample. Confirm this by pressing “OK”.
Wait until the balance prompts you to load the weighing vessel (tare) for the first sample.
When you have done this, press “OK”. While the balance is determining the tare weight,
a corresponding message is displayed.
