Speed or Accuracy
We recommend 'Balanced' for the most common weighing scenario.
Weigh Bar / Load Cell Configuration
Select Weigh Bar/ Load Cell configuration depending on how many bars you are using.
Species Being Weighed
Select the relevant sheep or cattle that will be weighed - if using iLivestock for goats we recommend selecting sheep.
Weigh Bar Type
Use the scrolling list to find and select the relevant brand and size of the weigh bars / load cells you are using for the session.
Note: It is important for the eWeigh to know correct make/model and calibration of weigh bars/load cells. If you are unsure:
Blue cables suggest Tru-Test bars
Orange cables suggest Ritchie bars.
If you have a Rappa eWeighCrate, you should select 'eWeighBar600' or 'Tru-test Multipurpose' here.
Self Calibration
If you scroll to the bottom of the load cell selection list, you'll see the 'Self Calibration' option. If you are unsure of the weigh bars you are using, you can choose this option, then use a calibrating weight to calibrate the eWeigh yourself.
See guide to use the Self Calibration here π Self Calibration
Next tap 'GO WEIGH'
Step 6: You will now be taken to weigh screen and are ready to weigh!
