OPERATION
3.1
ZEROING
THE
DISPLAY
•
Press the
[Zero]
key to set the zero point from which all other
weighing is measured. This will normally be done only when the
platform is empty. A new zero is set if the scale is already within
±2% of the original zero at power on.
•
When the zero point is obtained the
Denomination
display will
show an arrow above the zero symbol (
ZERO
). This indicates the
scale is at the zero condition.
•
The scale has an automatic re-zeroing function to account for
minor drifting or accumulation of material on the platform.
However you may need to press
[Zero]
to re-zero the scale
whenever a small amount of weight is shown even though the
platform is empty.

TARING
•
Taring is used to eliminate the weight of a container so that only
the net weight is displayed.
•
Zero the scale by pressing
[Zero]
if necessary. The zero indicator
will be on.
•
Place an empty container on the platform, a value for its weight
will be displayed.
•
Press
[Tare]
to zero the scale. The weight is stored as the tare
value. An arrow above the “
Net
” will be on.
