11. WEIGHING Put a load on the weight pan. When pictogram is ready to read. is displayed the indication 11.1. Conditions of operational use In order to assure a long term operating period with appropriate measurements following principles should be adhered to: • Avoid applying mechanical shocks to the weight pan: • Loads should be placed in the centre of the pan (eccentric errors are outlined in PN-EN 45501 chapter 3.5 and 3.6.
• Avoid side loads, particularly side strokes: 11.2. Zeroing In order to zero the indication choose a platform on the touch panel and . press After zeroing is performed the indication is equal zero and following and . symbols usually appear: Zeroing is possible only when the indication is stable. Notice: Zeroing is possible only within ±2% of full range around zero. If the zeroed value is beyond the interval of ±2%, Err2 is displayed. 11.3.
11.4. Weighing for dual range scales Switching between the I range and the II range happens automatically (exceeding Max of the I range). Weighings in the second range is signalled by a pictogram in the top left . Then weighings is done with the accuracy corner of the display ) of the II range to the moment of returning to zero (autozero range where the scale switches back to the I range. Switching between the II range and I range is automatic both in the switching point the autozero zone.
Inventory of scale parameters: Median Filter Filter Autozero LO Threshold 12.1. Median filter The median filter is intended for eliminating short-lasting mechanical shocks. Procedure: • Enter < < Weighing> according to ch. 12 of the manual, select Median Filter> and then set an appropriate value. Accessible settings: None - median filter is off 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 - filtering level to choose 12.2.
Notice: The higher filtering level the longer stabilization time. 12.3. Autozero The autozero function has been implemented in order to assure precise indications. This function controls and corrects „0” indication. While the function is active it compares the results continuously with constant frequency. If two sequentional results differ less than the declared value of autozero range, so the scale will be automatically zeroed and the and will be displayed.

21. APPENDIX F - Communication with barcode scanners 1. For communication with barcode scanners RADWAG scales use RS232 interfaces and simplex transmission (one direction) without handshaking. Only two wires are required for assuring such a transmission. Used scanners should be equipped in such interface with disabled both hardware and software handshaking. 2. Both scales and scanners have the possibility of setting of transmission parameters.
