ZERO Key
From the REG mode screen, we can use the ZERO key to correct for a deviation from zero as long as
there are no PLUs or MISC PLUs called-up. The weight can sometimes drift from zero due to debris on
the platter, leaving objects on the platter for excessive periods of time, or other environmental factors.
To correct this, remove everything from the platter and press the ZERO key when the stable indicator “
○
” is on. Below is a possible zero drifted state that should be corrected by simply pressing the ZERO key.

TARE Key
From the REG mode screen, you can also enter tare weights as long as there are no PLUs or MISC PLUs
called-up. If you need to temporarily override a PLU’s tare weight, you must enter the tare weight first
and then call-up that PLU. There are two ways to enter a tare weight and both ways will only work if
there is no PLU or MISC PLU called-up. When you call up the PLU with an assigned tare, you have to
delete the tare in Sale ( REG mode ) mode. If you do not delete the tare in REG mode, you can’t assign
a new one.
