5.7 Totalization Counts
Counterpart
has a totalization function that allows you to totalize the quantity of several weighings together. This is
especially helpful if putting together parts kits. The ID code is functional with totalization, count or weight.
For full operation of the totalization feature, configure the unit with the following softkeys:
TOTAL+
TOTAL-
Clear Total
To find the total accumulated quantity of similar containers filled with parts, use the totalization procedure detailed
below. Six containers are used in this example; all containers are of the same empty weight.
1. Conduct a sampling process to determine the unit weight
of the pieces, or key in a known unit weight or
recall an ID.
2. Enter a known tare weight or place an empty container on
the scale to perform tare function. If an ID was
recalled in step 1, its tare value is already loaded.
3. Place container 1 (full of parts) on the scale. The number of pie
ces in the container is shown in the PCS
area of the display.
4. Press the
Total + softkey to store the number of pieces in container 1. The memory (M) icon is shown. The
net weight of the items in the containers is stored and the totalization count is incremented. The piece count
value is displayed. The total count is shown in place of the unit weight display, and it is labeled as Total
Weight
ttl.
5. Remove container 1 and place container 2 (full of parts) on the scale.
6. Press the
Total + softkey. The accumulated total is now equal to container 1 plus container 2. The displayed
total is also updated.
7. Continue with the remainder of the
containers in the same totalization method. The total number of parts
stored in all six containers (and the weight of the parts in those containers) is now stored and shown on the
display.
Note
• An ID may be loaded while part totalizat
ion is being performed, the ID Quantity value is not affected by
the totalizations operations.
• If a totalization has been started and the
Code softkey is pressed — the unit will prompt Exit Totalization
Mode? with Yes and No softkeys. Pressing Yes clears the total, exits from totalization mode and brings up
the normal prompt for entering an ID code. If No is pressed, the unit does not prompt for an ID Code and
totalization can continue.
• The user cannot switch to another scale during totalization.
If the Unit Toggle key is pressed during
totalization, the message not allowed — totalizing will be displayed and the switch will not occur.
• The user cannot switch units during
totalization. If the Unit Toggle key is pressed during totalization, the
message
not allowed - totalizing will be displayed and the switch will not occur.
• During totalization an icon is displayed between the battery icon and the main display area
label. The icon
is an uppercase M for memory.
• For each totalization done (
Total+ or Total-) a count will be incremented. This value can be printed. When
the total value is cleared and totalization mode is exited, the count will be cleared as well.
• While in totalization mode, pressing the
Print key will print the total format — TOTALFMT.
• When attempting a totalization, a motion check can be per
formed based upon the setting of the TOTAL
parameter in the Feature/Count menu. If Total is ON and if there is motion, then one more attempt will be
made after two seconds. The default setting is OFF.
• To clear the total value, press the
Clear Total softkey, and it will clear the total value.
