PRESET TARE (SUBTRACTIVE TARE DEVICE) 

 

It is possible to manually set a preset tare value to be subtracted from the display 
value  provided  that  the 



  ≤  max  capacity  condition  is  verified.  In  multi-

interval instruments, the max permitted value is Max1 (max capacity of range 1). 

 
By default the instrument shows the last programmed preset tare value: to apply it press

 

 and 

then ENTER. 
After  setting  the  tare  value,  going  back  to  the  weight  display,  the  display  shows  the  net  weight 

(subtracting  the  preset  tare  value)  and  the  NET  symbol  lights  up  to  show  that  a  tare  has  been 
entered. To delete a preset tare and return to gross weight display, hold down  TARE for about 3 
seconds or keep the NET/GROSS input (if any) closed for the same length of time (3 seconds). The 
preset tare value is set to zero. The NET symbol is turned off when the gross weight is displayed 

once again. 

 

While the net weight is displayed, keep 

 

pressed to display the preset tare. When 

the key is released the net weight will be displayed again.

 IF  A  SEMI-AUTOMATIC  TARE  (NET)  IS  ENTERED,  IT  IS  NOT  POSSIBLE  TO 

ACCESS THE ENTER PRESET TARE FUNCTION. 

-

 

IF  A  PRESET  TARE  IS  ENTERED,  IT’S  STILL  POSSIBLE  TO  ACCESS  THE  SEMI-

AUTOMATIC TARE (NET) FUNCTION. THE TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF TARE ARE 

ADDED. 

 

ALL THE SEMI-AUTOMATIC TARE (NET) AND PRESET TARE FUNCTIONS WILL BE 

LOST WHEN THE INSTRUMENT IS TURNED OFF. 

 

 

SEMI-AUTOMATIC ZERO (WEIGHT ZERO-SETTING FOR SMALL VARIATIONS) 

 

By closing the SEMI-AUTOMATIC ZERO input, the weight is set to zero; alternatively, by pressing 
the 

 

key  for  less  than  3  seconds,  the 



  message  is  displayed  for  3  seconds,  by 

pressing ENTER the weight is set to zero. The zero-setting will be lost upon instrument power-off. 
This function is only allowed when: 

-

 

the weight is stable; otherwise the 



 alarm appears; 

-

 

the combined effect of the semi-automatic zero and zero tracking does not exceed 2% of the 
maximum capacity, otherwise the alarm
