SHOW.T
The SHOW.T item stands for Show Total. The function key will be labelled
<TOTAL>.
The PRINT key is used not only to print the current weight but also to add that
weight to the current total.
When the <TOTAL> key is pressed the indicator displays count followed by the
number of items in the total.
After this, TOTAL is displayed followed by the current total weight.
If the total weight is too large to display in six digits, the weight is shown in two
sections labelled with the upper six digits displayed before the lower six digits.
A long press of the <PRINT> key causes the total accumulated weight to be printed
and then cleared. The SERIAL:TYPE option must be set to PRINT to activate this
function.

flashing units.

A.TARE
The <A.TARE> key is used to enable the automatic tare feature. This feature when
enabled will cause the indicator to be tared whenever the weight is motionless
above the autotare threshold and has been below the autotare threshold since the
last autotare. The tare weight is reset to zero when the autotare feature is active and
the gross weight is motionless within the zero “dead” band.
Press the <A.TARE> key to switch between normal weighing and automatic tare
mode. An

annunciator will appear in the middle of the right hand side of the
display to indicate that the automatic tare mode is active.

In automatic tare mode the following sequence is typically followed:
The threshold is set to below the minimum box weight.
After the instrument has been zeroed, the instrument shows the current gross
weight.
While the gross weight is below the threshold, the instrument shows the current
gross weight.
A box is placed on the scale. When the displayed gross weight is stable above the
threshold weight. The instrument will automatically tare and the net weight of
zero will be displayed.
The box is filled with the instrument displaying the net weight.
The filled box is removed from the scale.
Press and hold the <A.TARE> key to set the threshold above which the automatic
tare occurs.
Press the <OK> key to enter the automatic tare threshold. Change the threshold
to the required value using the <SEL> and <EDT> keys.
Press the <OK> key to store the new automatic tare threshold. When the process
is complete the display will return to weight.
