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.
