1. INTENDED USE
The scales have implemented a module for testing prepackages. It uses
databases including products and operators. When the control is started
from the scale it is completed after testing the whole sample (number of
products resulting from the algorithm and depending on the batch quantity.
After the testing has been completed a report is generated. It includes all
the information required by regulations concerning testing prepackages.
It can be printed on a connected printer.
Testing cycle:
• choosing an operator,
• choosing a product,
• starting control,
• weighing subsequent products,
• completing the procedure after testing the number of products outlined
as a sample,
• printing the report.

13.1. Conditions of operational use
In order to assure a long term operating period with appropriate
measurements following principles should be adhered to:
• Avoid applying mechanical shocks to the weight pan:
).
• Loads should be placed in the centre of the pan (eccentric errors
are outlined in PN-EN 45501 chapter 3.5 and 3.6.2):

Procedure:
• Enter < Display> according to ch. 17 of this manual,
• Choose <
Bargraph type> and set the required bargraph type.
Accessible bargraphs:
• Quick weighing,
• None (Bargraph is not displayed),
• Signalling checkweighing ranges,
• Linear.
55
Page 56
17.4.1. Bargraf “Quick weighing”
• The bargraph consists of 8 red fields and three green fields.
• The green fields signal weighings between MIN and MAX
threshold, where:
MIN = the minimum threshold of acceptable weighing - LO
MAX = the maximum threshold of acceptable weighing - HI
• If a measurement is over the MIN (to the value of 1/3 of MIN-MAX) the
green field with a triangle on the left is visible. If the measurement is
between 1/3 and 2/3 of MIN-MAX the rectangular green field is visible.
If the measurement is between 2/3 of MIN-MAX and MAX a green field
with a triangle on the right is visible.
• If the mass value is below the MIN threshold red fields with red arrows
on the left are visible. The lower mass value the more red arrows are
visible.
• If the mass value is over the MAX threshold red fields with red arrows
on the right are visible. The higher mass value the more red arrows
are visible.
Thresholds MIN and MAX are on the borders between red and green fields.
17.4.2. Bargraph “Signalling checkweighing ranges”
• This type of bargraph comprises one green and 2 red fields.
• The left red field – signals that the load on the pan is lower than
the minimum weighing threshold (Min threshold);
56
Page 57
• The central green field – signals that the load on the pan is within the
set required interval for the weighed product (OK value between Min
and Max thresholds);
• The right red field – signals that the load on the pan is greater than
the maximum weighing threshold (Max threshold).
17.4.3. Bargraph „Linear”
The bar graph represents in a linear way the measuring range of a scale.
In addition, the bar graph can indicate weighing thresholds MIN, MAX, if they
have been determined:
• Signalization of mass below the value set in MIN threshold:
• Signalization of mass within MIN and MAX values of thresholds:
• Signalization of mass exceeding the value set in MAX threshold:

27.2. Formulation structure
All activities related to formulation process can be carried out from the level
of scales WLY. Each formulation <
> contains:
• Its name < >,
• formulation code <
>,
86
Page 87
• assigned weighing platforms < > defined on a terminal.
Each of the weighing platforms can have its specific formulation or dosing
process (maximal number of processes for a single formulation is 2, as this
is the maximal number of weighing platforms connectable to a single
WLY scales).
Formulas database has the same searching mechanisms for a specific
formulation (record in a database) as other terminal databases.
A formulation can be searched in a database by:
• formulation name < >
• formulation code <
>
Processes carried out on different weighing platforms operated by the same
terminal, can also be dependant on each other, e.g.: dosing on weighing
platform 2 can be initiated only on completing dosing on weighing platform 1,
which is confirmed by a signal from appropriate sensor.

27.7. Reporting from completed formula making processes
On completing each formula making process, the terminal automatically
generates a report on that process.
Notice:
Submenu: “
Devices / Printer / Printouts / Formulation
report printout template” enables optional modifying of the report tem plate
(see ch. 16.2.3 of this user manual).

Default form of the report from formulation template:
---------------------------------------------Recipe
---------------------------------------------{40:Start date:,-25}{180}
{40:End date:,-25}{181}
{40:Name:,-25}{175}
{40:Code:,-25}{176}
{40:Status:,-25}{182}
{40:Measurements:,-25}
---------------------------------------------{185:(50,-20) (7)(11)

(40:Difference:,-25)(187)(11)
---------------------------------------------}{40:Mass:,-25}{184}{11}
----------------------------------------------
The report from each completed formula making process is simultaneously
saved in the database of <
Reports From Formulas>, where the files are
named by their date and hour of process execution and formulation status.
List of data for the formula making process – see ch. 31.7.6 of this user
manual.
28. WORKING MODES – DENSITY
Working mode < Density> enables determining density of solids, liquids
and materials of high viscosity. The density is determined on basis of
Archimedes principle, according to which any floating object displaces its
own weight of fluid. The density mode also enables utilizing a pycnometer
for determining density of liquids.
28.1. Starting the working mode
Procedure:
• While in main window of the software, press
in the upper bar of the window, which opens submenu <Working
Modes> containing list of available working modes,
• Select working mode <
Density>, the software automatically returns
to displaying the main window, and the upper bar indicates the icon of
selected working mode,
on-screen key, located
