5.4 Transferring measuring values
Measuring values are accepted either using the function(print) key (data transfer) at the
scales or using the DATA key on the YKT -01. They will then be shown on the display and also
printed if „print measuring value“ has been activated.
5.5 Delete a measured value
5.5.1 Delete an individual measured value
Whether one or several values have been received, with the present value shown in the
display can be deleted.
An acoustic signal is issued. If this is the last measuring value, it will be marked by a strike
through on the printout. When there are 6 spaces between the last measured value and the
actual position of the paper, the value can no longer be struck through and will be treated as
an old measured value.
5.5.2 Delete an old measured value
If required to delete an old measured value, use or to display the value
and to delete with .
As the returnpaper feed is only able to execute one recording step back, only the last printed
value will be struck through. Subsequently the actual printing item will be displayed with e.g.
“no. 10 cancelled!”.
If, starting with the highest reference number of the measuring values, always the penultimate
reference number is cleared, this number will become vacant and allocated to the next
accepted measuring value
If the cancelled value is not the one with the highest measuring value reference number then
this number will remain in use. When the value is shown on the display it will have the remark
„deleted“
The deleted values are not considered in the number of measuring values or in the statistical
evaluation.
Deleted values can be restored by pressing (press longer than 1 sec.).
Therefore the message e.g. „No.10 restored“ is printed.
Generally an acoustic signal is issued.
If no deleted value is selected, this function is not possible.

53
5.5.3 Deleting a measuring value (all measured values)
Press, in the display appears
By pressing it is possible to abandon this menu without
deleting any of the measuring values
Select or with
and confirm with .
5.6 Calculate statistics
Via the key the statistics for the present values be calculated.
The reports:
- Statistics
- Statistics with histogram
- Sample chart can be selected.
For selection refer to Setting modes, chapter 6
5.7 Leafing through a measuring list
With the cursor keys it is possible to leaf back and forth within the list.
5.8 Printing a measuring list
The current measuring list can be printed as often as required.
Via the key the setting up mode is activated. With leaf through until
appears.
The current measuring sequence will be printed with
During a print-out the task, with can be switched off and with
the task is discontinued.
Return with to the Operating mode.
