•
When the container is removed a negative value will be shown. If the
scale was tared just before removing the container this value is the
gross weight of the container plus all products that were removed.
The zero indicator will also be ON because the platform is back to
the same condition as it was when the
[Tare/Zero]
key was last
pressed.
Second method of entering a tare value:
•
This method allows you to enter a value for the tare weight from the
keypad. This is useful if all containers are the same or if the
container is already full but the net weight is required and the weight
of the container is known.
•
Remove all weights from the platform, press the
[Tare/Zero]
key to
zero the display.
•
Enter the value for the Tare weight including decimal point using the
keypad, press
[Tare/Zero]
to store the tare value. The weight will
show a negative value equal to the tare.
•
Place the container on the platform.
•
The display will then show the weight of the container minus the tare
weight. When the full container is placed on the platform the tare
value will be subtracted from the gross weight displaying only the net
weight of the contents.
•
If the value input is not consistent with the increment of the scale,
the scale will round the tare value to the nearest value possible. For
example, if a tare value of 103g is entered into the 60Kg scale with
5g readability, then the display will show -105g.
•
The tare value for each scale is held in memory so that they are not
lost when the active scale changes.
TARING THE REMOTE SCALE
Select the remote scale by pressing the
[Local Rem]
key and then follow the
same procedure for taring as mentioned in the above sections.
