General Counting Function

The ESA series will count parts based on the weight of a reference sample of

5, 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 pieces. For best results, the pieces used should be of

equal weight. Also, the larger the sample, the more accurate your counts will

be. Once you have created this reference sample, it will remain in memory

until a new sample is recorded, even when the balance if turned off. This

section explains the counting function in further detail.

1. Turn the balance on and allow it to come to zero.

2. Press the Count key. The balance will display “CON pcs”.

Note: If you are using a container to hold the pieces, place the empty

container on the weighing platform at this point.

3. Press Tare. The balance will display the message “Add 5”.

4. Press Mode until the number of pieces in your sample is displayed. You

can choose from 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50.

5. Place your sample on the platform and press Tare.

6. There will be a short pause and then the balance will show the number

of the sample on the screen.

Note: If

the balance displays the message “PC Err”, the sample size was too

small for the balance and a larger sample will be required.

7. Remove the sample from the balance. The balance is now ready to

coun

8. Add pieces to the balance / container. The balance will show the

number of pieces on the display.

9. Press the Units key to exit piece counting and return to normal

weighing. You can return to piece counting by pressing the Units key

until “pcs” is displayed.

6.0 Calibration

Occasionally, you may need to calibrate your balance with an appropriate

weight. There are two types of calibration possible: sensitivity calibration and

linear calibration. Linear calibration should only be attempted by a qualified

service technician with correct weights. This section explains how to perform

each type of calibration.
