ECONOMY COUNTING SCALE 9 OPERATING YOUR SCALE ZERO Press to capture a new center of zero if the scale is in gross weight mode and the weight on the scale is stable (e.g. 0.5000 lb, as above shown, the cursor ‘Stab’ is on). The cursor “0” is lit when a new center of zero is captured. TARE key subtracts the weight of the object on the scale platform from subsequence indications Pressing the of weight. Tare is most often used to subtract the weight an empty container.
ECONOMY COUNTING SCALE 10 COUNTING Counting by Sampling Place the samples on the platter (e.g. 20 pieces weights 0.05 lb as shown above). Press the key to sample. The QTY window displays SPL. Enter the sample quantity 20, and then press the key to confirm. Press the key to correct or clear the input figure. The Wt window displays the sample Weight; the APW window displays Average Piece Weight of samples and the QTY displays the sample Quantity.
ECONOMY COUNTING SCALE 11 If you know the APW. . . If you know the APW of your goods, the APW can be entered directly instead of sampling. and enter the APW (e.g. 0.002 lb) of one Place the goods on the scale (e.g. 0.05 lb). Press the key piece. The QTY window displays “Single” and the entered APW is displayed in the APW window. Press to confirm. The QTY window displays now the total quantity of pieces (e.g. 25). You may press the key to correct or clear the input figure.
Temporarily Disable the Alarm Beep For all functions, the alarm beep can be deactivated by pressing the key reactivate the alarm beep. ECONOMY COUNTING SCALE . Pressing again will Weight Alarm within a Range to set the alarm range. The If weight alarm within a range is activated in the Setup Mode, press the key QTY window displays ‘Lo 1’ to remind you to enter the lower limit of the alarm range. The entered lower range is displayed in the APW window (e.g. 0.500 lb).
ECONOMY COUNTING SCALE 13 SPECIAL MODES – SETUP MODE ENTERING SETUP MODE Press and hold for three seconds to enter the Setup Mode. If you change the display resolution in the Setup Mode, the scale will perform its power-up process after exiting the Setup Mode.

If the scale is subjected to a different gravitational force at its destination location, this can be compensated for electronically by adjusting the geo value. The GEO value has 32 settings.
ECONOMY COUNTING SCALE 18 Example: 6 lb linearity calibration (S4.1=1) When the Wt window display S4.1 1, press the key the scale in linearity. to calibrate The scale displays SP 6, where 6 means the capacity is 6 lb, selects the capacity. Press to continue. Pressing The Wt window displays 2----. The scale will capture zero weight by . The scale should count down from 5. pressing the key The Wt window displays L 3. Put 3 lb weight on the scale, press to calibrate in half range.
