11.5 Overview of the menu tree

The menu tree expanded to the third level is reported below. For details, refer to the specific paragraphs in this section or the installation section of the manual.

11.6 Descriptions of the main menus and parameters

Unless specified differently, the description of the parameters given in the following paragraphs is valid for both analogue and digital scales.

Digital filter	no, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64
	Serves to enable/disable a digital filter. Switches on or off a software filter on the output from the analogue/digital converter. The higher the number, the higher the degree of filtration.
Stability signalling	Very fast, Fast, Slow, Very slow
	Speed at which the weight stable indication appears. This parameter is also linked to the setting of digital filter parameter.
Tare lock	Defines tare management on unloading the scale.
	no
	Any entered or acquired tares will be automatically cancelled when the scale returns to zero, i.e. when the gross weight = 0
	yes
	Any entered or acquired tares will remain in memory when the scale is unloaded, i.e. when the gross weight = 0
Initial zero-setting	Defines the terminal operating mode on power up.
	calibrated zero
	On power up, the terminal performs the calibrated zero procedure, i.e. it indicates the weight on the scale relative to the zero value programmed during calibration.
	autozero
	On power up, the terminal performs the autozero procedure. In the case of a legally approved instrument, the autozero will be within a range of -5% and +15% of the full-scale value around the calibrated zero. In the case of a non-legal weighing instrument, the range is -50% to +50%.

Conversion rate

The number of conversions per second the AID converter makes can be displayed (but not modified).

N. of load cells	The number of cells in the system can be displayed.
Baud rate	The baud rate of the dialogue with the load cell selected during the installation phase can be displayed.

Display points	The number of points in the converter can be displayed if the scale is the analogue type.   If the scale is the digital type, the number of output points of each individual scale (scale 0-200.000) can be displayed along with the number of points of the entire system, obtained by calculating the average of the points of all the cells. Each cell is identified by a number.
Display weight	Displays the weight currently present on the scale. On pressing the High Res. key, the display switches to high resolution for 5 seconds. Cyclic transmission of the string containing the weight in high resolution is enabled on Com 2 with the protocol 9600 8-N-1.
