4 Operating Modes
4.1 Weighing Functions
The basic step for all operating modes is the display of the weight. In this step
the elementary scale functions are accessible.
For the sequences described below Service Mode settings are required as
follows: 'Print mode: Standard,' 'Auto Tare? = N' and 'Peak Hold?=N'
(operating mode BASIC).
See section 'Print mode,' 'Auto Tare' and 'Peak Hold.'

Notes:

disabled and cycle can only be started via input E0.
• The function 'Totalizing' can be disabled in Supervisor Mode in the step
'With Totals? = N.'
• Preact correction: If the automatic trend-sensing preact correction is enabled
in Supervisor Mode, the value for preact slow (=cutoff point slow-speed
feeding) is recalculated with every completed filling cycle and saved. The
operator may manually change this value. e.g. to shorten – after change of
material – the learning curve that the controller needs to again reach target
(usually within 4 filling cycles).

Notes:
• A checkweighing cycle is activated when the scale is loaded with more than
10 % of target weight and settled weight is detected. Then the
corresponding output signal is set and it remains on until the weight on the
scale falls below 10 % of target. Then the signal is reset and a new cycle
can be started.

displayed after 3 seconds when the scale is settled.
• Minimum load = setpoint S1
• The operating mode uses only the inputs E0 and E1 (e.g. via external
pushbuttons) to control the sequence.
• The next weighing is started when the weight falls below setpoint S1. E0
has to be set again.
• The total weight is cleared when the input E1 is set. The program proceeds
