6. What are Zero Tracking and No Zero Tracking software types for Exceed W Scales?

During software update of Exceed W scale using Exceed W PC Program, you may choose what type of software to program to your scale. These software types are: Zero Tracking and No Zero Tracking software.

In Zero Tracking software, small weights that are placed slowly on the scale’s platform (below minimum weight) are considered zero and the value for zero weight is constantly adjusted also. This will cause problems if you are weighing items that are too light and below scale’s minimum weight (example, weighing grains by slowly pouring in the grains onto the scale’s platform). If you use the Exceed W scale to weigh items that are always above the scale’s minimum weight, this will not be a problem and the Zero Tracking software will work fine on the scale.

Contrary to the Zero Tracking software, the No Zero Tracking software can handle weighing of items that are below the scale’s minimum weight. This software type is therefore advisable to users who use Exceed W scale to weigh very light items.
Choose the type of software that will suit your weighing needs.

 

7. I have registered an Exceed W Scale under my account, but now I am reselling it to another person, can he/she still register the same scale under his account?

YES. If you are a scale distributor and have registered several Exceed W Scales for software update, you may delete these scale registration accounts so that your customers or other end-users will be able to register their scales under their account.  Customers who are reselling their scale can also do the same thing. Under the Exceed W Scale Registration menu on this page, you can find the submenu Delete Scale Registration. Go to this page and enter 8-digit serial number of the Exceed W Scale you want to delete its registration.
