6. Press the
gross
key.
7. Wait for the “ok” symbol, then read the gross weight from the display.
Note:
Pressing the
gross
key adds the tare (container) weight to the net (contents)
weight to provide the gross (combined) weight.
Pressing the
gross
key again (or pressing
clear
) will return the display to the net weight.
NET TOTALIZING BY WEIGHT
In some applications, when totalizing the net weight, it is necessary to check the
gross weight periodically to ensure the capacity of the scale is not exceeded. The
procedure used to store both the gross and net weight is called "net totalizing." To
net totalize weight, use the following procedure:
1. Press the
—
key.
2. Press the
clear
key.
3. Press the
zero
key.
4. Place a container on the pan.
5. Press the
tare
key.
6. Add material to the container.
7. Press the
accum
key. The display shows the net weight stored in the accumula-
tor.
8. Press the
gross
key. The display shows the gross weight.
9. Press the
tare
key. The gross weight is entered into the tare register. In this
manner, the tare register is used to accumulate gross weight.
10. Repeat Steps 6-9 until the desired weight is reached.
11. Press the
./rcl
key.
12. Press the
accum
key. The display shows the net totalized weight.
Note:
Setra scales have an active-gross weighing mode. While in this mode, if the
tare
key is pressed, the gross weight is entered into the tare register. Likewise, if
the
zero
key is pressed, the gross weight will be set to zero. This is useful in
certain applications as shown above.
