Units
The units and weighing modes can be selected and stored in the function table as described in
"
5.2. Storing Active Units
".
The sequence of displaying them can be arranged to fit the frequency of use.
They are stored and are maintained in non-volatile memory, even if the AC adapter is removed.
If the law in your area permits, you may use all of the units. You can disable the units that you
don't regularly use. And you are able to turn them back on.
If a weighing mode (or unit of mass) has been turned off, that mode or unit will be missing in the
sequence. Tael has four varieties, one of which can be selected and installed at the factory.
Press the
