The ZoneType defines the structure of an Object of the ZoneType. Figure 34 shows the hierarchical structure and details of the composition. It is formally defined in Table 57.

The ZoneType is a container for the weighing zones in a checkweigher. It defines additional methods and properties required for managing the different zones and provides a ZoneStatistic.
