  • Page 26: Using The Application

    11.2 Using the application 11.2.1 Parts counting Before the balance can count parts, it must know the average piece weight (i.e. reference). Proceed by putting on a certain number of the parts to be counted. The balance determines the total weight and divides it by the number of parts, the so-called reference quantity.
  • Page 27: Check Counting

     The balance will calculate the average item weight and then displays the quantity of pieces.  Remove reference weight. The balance is now in parts counting mode counting all units on the weighing pan. 2. Parts counting  Put the empty container on the weighing pan and press the TARE button. The container is tared, the zero display will appear.
