Alarm Number Explanation:
The alarms are given in individual bits and are reflected in the alarm number. The alarm number is
only used to drive a pop-up message and will probably not be very useful to you. If you decide to use
the alarm number instead of reading the individual alarm bits then the related values are shown below:

FIXED DECIMAL EXPLANATION
All weight values and recipe values use fixed decimal. This must be taken into consideration when
writing or reading values. If you see “xxx.xxx” above this means the data is in fixed decimal and must
be scaled when reading or writing. A decimal is shown next to each item to represent the format.
