Scale Programming 33
display will show the field that the data is being entered for.
Once the display of this character clears, the scale is ready to accept your next ASCII code.
NOTE: If you enter an Item Code that has already been stored in memory, the scale will ask you if you want to clear the stored
data associated with that Item Code. You can press the CLEAR key to erase the existing data and reprogram that
Item Code, or press the
MODE key to return to the Programming screen and enter a new Item Code.
To store the Item Code and go on to program the tare weight, press the CODE/IN-OUT key.
3. Enter the tare weight value (refer to Section 5.4). The tare weight is limited to 5 digits plus the decimal
symbol. This can be done by placing the bin, box or container on the platform and pressing the TAR E
key or by digital entry. Note that if you enter a tare weight here to be associated in memory with this Item
Code, when you recall an Item Code this stored Tare Weight will override any Tare Weight you have
digitally entered into the scale or entered using the TARE key.
4. Enter Unit Weight (refer to Section 5.5). The unit weight is limited to 5 digits plus the decimal symbol.
This can be done by sampling if the unit weight is unknown or by digital entry if known. Press the *
PRINT key to store the unit weight.
5. To store an Inventory level, press the INVENT key. Then enter an inventory quantity of up to 8 digits.
Press the * PRINT key to store the Inventory level and move to the Part Number field.
6. In the Part Number field, the scale will automatically be in alphanumeric mode. Using the ASCII
characters in Table 8-2, enter a Part Number of up to 16 characters, Then press the * PRINT key to store
the Part Number and move to the Part Name.
7. In the Part Name field the scale will again be automatically in alphanumeric mode. Using the ASCII
characters in
Table 8-2, enter a Part Name of up to 32 characters. Then press the * PRINT key to store
the Part Name and move to the Lot Number.
8. Lot Numbers can also be alphanumeric, up to 32 characters. Using the ASCII characters in Table 8-2,
enter a Lot Number. Then press the * PRINT key to store the Lot Number and move to Setpoint 1.
9. SPC 04, Bits 1 and 0 - Setpoint Type determines what type of setpoint you are programming: 00: %
Quantity, 01: % Weight, 10: Quantity, or 11: Weight. The setpoints are programmed by entering and
storing a value (Setpoint 1) and then entering and storing a percentage or amount (Setpoint 2). Enter the
value for Setpoint 1 (Ex. 100 pcs) and press the + (Plus) key to advance to Setpoint 2. (For instructions
on how to program Customer specifications, see
Table 3.1.1.)
10. Enter a value for Setpoint 2 (Ex. 85%) and press the * PRINT key to store the value.
NOTE:
•There are four types of setpoints which can be selected by setting SPC 04, Bits 1 and 0: % of Quantity (%QTY), % of Weight
(%WT), Over/Under Quantity (QTY), or Over/Under Weight (WT).
• When entering weight setpoints, be sure that you enter in the weight values with decimal point and all leading and trailing zeros.
• All percentage values must be rounded to the nearest whole number, fractional percentages are not allowed.
• Setpoints involving % of quantity or weight are limited by the decimal places available on the display. For example: if Set Point
value 1 specifies a Quantity of 9999999, then a Set Point value 2 of % of Quantity cannot be set for more than 100% because all
7 digits of the display are already in use.
Table 6-3 below shows what to enter in each of the two set point values to program each type of set point. The alarm sounds
with a rhythmic beeping at setpoint one and with a rapid beeping at setpoint two. For the Setpoint Alarm to be activated, SPC
