Selecting the Weighing Range Structure (Menu Item 11-3)
The capacity of the weighing platform can be divided into
multiple ranges. These settings are configured under menu
item 11-3:
Single-range Scale (11-3-1)
The entire weighing range is divided into scale intervals on
the basis of the lowest interval d and the maximum load.
In this case, the readability over the entire weighing range
is always the lowest scale interval d.
Multiple-range Scale (11-3-3)
A multiple-range scale has two weighing ranges.
When the maximum capacity of the lower range is
exceeded, the scale switches to the higher range (lower
resolution) and remains in that range. The scale can be
returned to the lower weighing range (higher resolution)
only by unloading the scale and then pressing the ( key.
Scale Interval d
The lowest scale interval d indicates the resolution of the
weighing instrument. The scale interval d can be entered
only in increments of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, etc. When working
on a verifiable or verified scale in accuracy class l, you
are not prompted to enter the lowest scale interval, as this
is equal to the verification scale interval e.
Verification Scale Interval e
The verification scale interval e indicates the resolution
of the weighing instrument in legal metrology.
When accuracy class l is active, this is equal to the scale
interval d. Thus with classes l, the lowest scale interval
d is not prompted.
