Instruction Manual - TORBAL AGC Series 5. Place the sample on the pan. The weight of the sample will be displayed. Note: The reference sample must be equal to or greater than 100d. Attempting to set a sample lower than 100d will result in a SAPL LO error. 6. Once the weight of the sample has stabilized and the stability indicator has been displayed, press “T” to accept the sample. Once a new sample weight is set it will be saved until changed or cleared through the master RESET.
Instruction Manual - TORBAL AGC Series 7. After setting the sample weight, the command READY will be displayed. Remove the sample and place the object on the pan. The scale will express the weight of the object as a percentage of the stored sample. Note: To change the percent sample press “C” and repeat Steps 1 to 5. If the same sample weight is used, the scale can be tared without clearing the function and new objects can be weighed.
Instruction Manual - TORBAL AGC Series (F) Totalizing Totalizing is used to add and total weighing results. To use this function, follow the steps below. 1. Place a container on the pan and press “T” to tare. 2. After taking a tare, place the first object on the pan. Automatic When set to Automatic, the weight of the object will be added automatically. Once the weight stabilizes, the TOTAL indicator will appear on the display, signaling that the weight has been added to the grand total.
Instruction Manual - TORBAL AGC Series Manual When set to Manual, the weight of the object must be added manually. Once the weight stabilizes and the stability indicator appears on the display press the “Function” key to add the weight to the grand total. Upon pressing “Function,” TOTAL will appear on the display, signaling the weight has been added to the grand total. Note: With each added weight, the grand total result appears on the display for approximately three seconds.
Instruction Manual - TORBAL AGC Series 4. After the scale has been tared, Steps 1 through 3 can be repeated to add more weighing results to the grand total. 5.
