Chargemaster needs minimum weight for auto disp?

I have been using a plastic Lyman funnel pan on my Chargemaster and noticed last night that the auto dispense wasn't working. I pulled out the stock metal pan and noticed it weighed more than double what the plastic pan did. When I used the metal pan, the auto dispense works fine. The plastic pan weighs 69.2 gr, and adding a small washer that weighed 14 gr gave just enough weight to the plastic pan to activate the auto dispense. Anything over 85 or so and it worked fine.

Anybody run into this before and know if I can change one of the settings in the menu to accommodate this? Am I stuck gluing a small washer to the plastic pan?

I taped a bullet to the back of my pan to make my two pans exactly the same weight. I never thought about reprogramming the chargemaster. Try this website, and see what you can find out.
