To exit expanded mode, either:

• Wait five seconds; the terminal will automatically return to normal resolution.

Or

• Press the x10 function key again

Printing is disabled when the weight is expanded.

1.4.2. Unit Switching

In order to support locations and applications that require multiple measurement units, the

IND231/IND236 supports unit switching. This is illustrated in Figure 1-7

, which shows the display

switching from

Kg

to

g

. The SWITCH UNITS function enables switching between primary units (the

main unit of measure) and alternate units.

Primary unit is set in the submenu F1.2.1. The second unit is set in the submenu F1.6. More

information, please refer to Chapter 3,

Configuration

.

METTLER TOLEDO IND231/IND236 Quick Guide

1-7

English

Figure 1-7: Unit Switching: Kilograms to Grams

When the SWITCH UNITS function is assigned to a function key and that key is pressed, the display

changes from the primary unit to the second unit. Pressing the function key again returns the

display to the primary unit. Each subsequent key press switches between display units.

When units are switched, the units indicator changes to show the selected unit, and the display

value is converted. The display division changes to an equivalent weight value in the switched unit

(for example, from 0.02 lb to 0.01 kg) and the decimal location switches to indicate the

conversion.

When switching units, the capacity of the converted units is dictated by the original number of

divisions established in the capacity and increments area of setup. In some situations, this may

reduce the capacity of the terminal when converting to second unit. If switching would result in a

value that is not supported by IND231/IND236, the unit switch will not occur.

1.4.3. Date and Time

The Date & Time function key is only used to display date or time. Configure the Date & Time in

setup at

F3 - Terminal > F3.3 - Date &Time

. When the function key is first pressed, the time will be

shown. A second press displays the date. The third press returns the display to weighing mode. To

return directly to weighing mode at any time, press the CLEAR

.

1.4.4. Backlight Adjustment

The Backlight Adjustment function key is used to set the brightness of the backlight. There are three

options:

off

,

low

and

high

. Each press of the key moves the backlight to the next setting.

1.4.5. Zero

When a function key is set to ZERO, it has the same effect as the dedicated zero key

.

The Zero function is used to set or reset the initial zero reference point of the terminal. There are

three types of zero setting modes:

• Automatic Zero Maintenance

• Power Up Zero

• Pushbutton Zero

1-8

METTLER TOLEDO IND231/IND236 Quick Guide

30100541 | 00 | 08/2013

Operation

When the scale platform or weighbridge is empty, the terminal should indicate zero. The gross zero

reference is recorded during calibration. If pushbutton zero is enabled in configuration and the

weight is within the zero range, pressing ZERO will capture a new gross zero reference point.

1.4.5.1. Automatic Zero Maintenance

Automatic Zero Maintenance (AZM) enables the IND231/IND236 to reset to the center of zero in

order to compensate for conditions such as terminal or load cell drift or debris on a scale platform.

The AZM operating range is selectable from 0.5, 1, 3 or 10 divisions. Within the configured range,

when the terminal is in a no motion condition, AZM makes small adjustments to the current zero

reading to drive the weight reading toward the true center-of-zero. The feature does not function

when the weight is outside the configured AZM range.

1.4.5.2. Power up Zero

Power up Zero enables the IND231/IND236 terminal to capture a new zero reference point after

power is applied. If there is a motion during power-up zero capture function, the terminal will

continue to check for a no-motion condition until zero is captured.

Power up zero can be disabled or enabled, and a range above and below calibrated zero can be

configured. The range is selectable from +/-2%, +/-10% or +/-20% of capacity and can include a

positive range and also a range below calibrated zero.

1.4.5.3. Pushbutton Zero

The pushbutton (semi-automatic) zero function can be activated by pressing the ZERO key

, by

programming a discrete input, or by issuing a serial command.

Any type of semi-automatic zero can be set to

+/-2%

,

+/- 10%

or

+/- 20%

, relative to the

calibrated zero point.

The semi-automatic Zero command can be initiated via a discrete input, or an ASCII ‘Z’ command

sent serially (in CPTZ and SICS interface modes).

1.4.6. Tare

When a function key is set to Tare, it has the same effect as the tare key .

Tare is the weight of an empty container. A tare value is subtracted from the gross weight

measurement, providing the computation of the net weight (material without the container). The tare

function can also be used to track the net amount of material being added to or removed from a

vessel or container. In this second case, the weight of the material in the container is included with

the tare weight of the container and the display then reflects the net result of any additions to or

subtractions from the vessel.

Tare operations in the IND231/IND236 include:

• Automatic Tare • Clearing Tare

• Tare Interlock • Keyboard Tare

English

1.4.6.1. Automatic Tare

The IND231 can be configured so that tare is taken automatically (auto tare) after the weight on the

scale exceeds a programmed tare threshold weight. Auto tare can be configured in setup as

enabled or disabled. When auto tare is enabled, the display changes to a zero net weight indication

after the weight exceeds the threshold value. Auto tare operations involve:

Auto tare

threshold Weight

When weight on the scale platform exceeds the tare threshold value,

the terminal automatically tares.

Auto tare reset

Threshold Weight

The reset threshold weight must be less than the tare threshold weight.

When the weight on the scale platform falls below the reset threshold

value, such as when a load has been removed, the terminal

automatically resets the auto tare trigger.

1.4.6.2. Clearing Tare

Tare values can be cleared manually or automatically.

1.4.6.2.1. Manual Clear

Manually clear tare values by pressing the CLEAR key

on the keypad when the

IND231/IND236 is in the net mode and has completed the weighing operation. Motion on the scale

will not impact a manual clear.

If configured in setup, pressing the ZERO scale function key will first clear the tare, then issue a

zero command.

1.4.6.2.2. Auto Clear Tare

The IND231/IND236 can be configured to clear tare automatically when the weight returns to zero

point. Once the tare is cleared, the display returns to the gross weighing mode.
