MENU STRUCTURE All menus consist of a top level (heading) and a secondary level. The top level contains the code (e.g. F1) for the parameter to be configured. The secondary level contains the selection list or allows access to a programming sequence. - Page 8 CODE/NAME DESCRIPTION SELECTION LIST Selects the range (expressed as a percentage of full scale capacity) 100% within which the scale may be zeroed. Note that the indicator must be Zero Range 1.9% in standstill to zero the scale. Sets the level at which motion is detected. If motion is not detected, the scale can process a Print or Zero command.
