8.3 ANIMAL WEIGHING

It is difficult to weigh living animals accurately such as rabbit, which may

move around a lot during weighing. The movement will not allow the display

to show a stable weight and hence the true weight of the animal can not be

determined. To overcome this problem, ADK series of balances are designed

to offer animal weighing mode. The balance works out an average weight

based on the force exerted by the animal over an extended period of time.

Once the internal calculation is completed by the balance, it will hold the

value and the arrow above Stab will appear.

• Select the animal weighing mode by pressing [Mode]. It will display

“0.0”.

Note: g is the only weighing unit available in the animal weighing mode.

• Place a cage or a container on the pan. The weight of the cage or

container will be displayed.

• Press [Tare] and the display will show “0.0”.

• Place the animal into the cage or the container. After few seconds the

net weight of the animal will be displayed and the stability indicator will

appear.

Note: User can reset the functions to suit weighing of different animals.

See the Parameter Setting section for details.

• To change the weighing mode, simply press [Mode] and select the

desired weighing mode.
