Weighing
This chapter explains how you switch the scale on and off, adjust the zero setting, tare the scale, carry out weighings, and record
weighing results.
2.1
Switching on/off and setting to zero
You switch the scale on and off by pressing the
key.
After it has been switched on, the scale carries out a display test. When the weight
display appears, the scale is ready for weighing and is automatically set to zero.
Note
: The
key can be used to set the scale to zero at any time.
2.2
Simple weighing
Place the weighing sample on the pan.
Wait until the stability detector (small ring at left-hand edge of display) goes off and then
read the weighing result.
You can use the
key to transmit the weighing result via the interface to a
peripheral device (printer, computer) (see Chapter 4.3 for sample report).

Weighing with tare
Place the
empty
weighing container or the packaging material on the weighing pan
and press the
key to tare the scale
.
The zero display and the
NET
(net weight) symbol appear.
Note
: If the
automatic
tare function
is active (Chapter 3.4.3), you need not press the
key, since the first
weight added is taken to be the tare (
T
flashes in the display until the tare is added).
