9 4. WEIGHING UNITS 4-1 Units With the FX- i series balance, the following weighing units and weighing modes are available: A unit or mode can be selected and stored in the function table as described on p age 1 1. If a weighing mode (or unit of weight) has been turned off, that mode or unit will be missing in the sequence.
10 The tables below indicate the weighing cap acity and the minimum display for each unit, depending on the balance model. Capacity Unit FX-120 i FX-200 i FX-300 i Minimum dis play Gram 122.000 220.000 320.000 0.001 Ounce (Avoir) 4.30340 7.76025 11.28765 0.
11 4-2 Storing Units The units or modes can be selected and stored in t he function table. The sequence of displaying the units or modes can be arranged in the function tabl e so as to fit the frequency of use.
12 5. WEIGHING 5-1 Basic Operation (Gram Mode) 1 Place a container on the weighing pan, if necessary. Press the RE-ZERO key to cancel the weight (tare). The balance displays 0. 00 g . (The decimal point position depends on the balance model.) 2 Place a sample on the pan or in the container.
13 5-2 Counting Mode (PCS) This is the mode to determine the number of objects in a sample based on the standard sample unit mass. Unit mass means the mass o f one sample. The smaller the variables in each sample unit mass are, the more accurate the counting will be.
14 If the balance judges that the mass of the samples is too light to aquire accurate we ighing, it displays an error requiring the addition of more samples to the specified number. In the example above, 1 50- PCS appears, requiring 25 more samples. Add 25 samples and press the PRINT key .
15 5-3 Percent Mode (%) This is the mode to display the weight value in percentage comp ared to a 100% reference mass and is used for target weighing or checking the sample variable. Selecting the percent mode 1 Press the MODE key to select % (percent mode).
16 5-4 Statistical Calculation Mode The statistical calculation mode stati stically calculates the weight data, and displays or outputs the results. To use the statistical cal culation mode, set the "Application function ( apf )" parameter of “Application ( ap fnc )” in the function table to “ 2 ”, as described below.
17 Selecting the st atistical items to output 5 Press the SAMPLE key to display 5taf 0 . 6 Press the RE-ZERO key to select the output items . In the example, 5taf 1 is selected to output the number of data, sum, maximum, minimum, range (maximum-minimum) and average.
