- Long press the COUNT button. "PCS" will flash, and you can select a sample quantity (25, 50, 75, or 100) using the unit button.
- Place the selected number of sample items (e.g., 25 pieces) onto the weighing platform.
- Press the COUNT button again to confirm the sample. Once "PCS" stops flashing, the setting is complete.
- You can now add or remove items, and the display will show the count of items.
Video: Demonstrates the counting function for uniform small items.
Calibration
To ensure continued accuracy, periodic calibration may be necessary. You will need a calibration weight (e.g., 100g or 500g) for this procedure.
- Turn on the scale. Press and hold the unit button for a few seconds until "CAL" appears.
- The required calibration weight (e.g., 100.00g or 500.00g) will be displayed. Use the unit button to change the weight if necessary, then press the "ON/OFF" button to confirm.
- Once "CAL" flashes and the selected weight stops flashing, gently place the corresponding calibration weight in the center of the scale.
- The display will show "PASS" when calibration is complete.
