How to set Underweight Threshold, Overweight Threshold, Aux Threshold
Aux Weight Threshold: This is a "safe weight" or "soft threshold" between Underweight and Overweight that can be used as another visual reference. Spikemark registers this is either above or below Aux Weight.
The New Weight is shown, but not accepted until you click Update Values.
Inside the Load Cell Configuration Window, click Get The Wizard's Help to open the Load Cell Scaling Wizard:
Each weight must be a pre-masured, known number. Methods for obtaining this weight can include:
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Make sure you know precisely how much weight you will be adding for each measurement.
Weight 1: Completely unload the load cell, input 0 for the weight, and click Record
Weight 2: Load about 1/2 of the Maximum Allowable Weight to the system, input that weight in Value 2, and click Record
Weight 3: Load the Maximum Allowable Weight to the system, input that weight in Value 3, and click Record
Weight 1: Hang your batten or other system components, then input 0 for Value 1, and click Record.
Weight 2: Load about 1/2 of the Maximum Allowable Weight to the system, input that weight in Value 2, and click Record
Weight 3: Load the Maximum Allowable Weight to the system, input that weight in Value 3, and click Record
