Tare (
tare
)
The tare function zero’s out the display. In the case of scale weight, tare
is used to eliminate container weight and provide net weight readings.
There are two tare functions; Capture Tare and Reset Tare.
When the capture tare function is used, the display reading is offset by
the displayed amount to make the displayed value zero. This modified
display value is the net value. The originally displayed value without the
tare offset is the gross value. Both may be chosen as a display option.
Reset tare removes the display offset of the net value, and the gross
and net values become the same until a new capture tare is entered.
