6.1.2 TARING
Select the local or remote scale as applicable by pressing the
Local/Rem
key.
Preset tare values can be used with both the local and remote scale. If a new tare
value is to be used, there are two methods for entering a tare value. The first method
uses the weight on the platform and the second uses a value to be entered by the
user.
First method of entering a tare value:
• Zero the scale by pressing the
Zero
key, if necessary. The arrow indicator
over “
Zero
” will be on.
• Place a container on the platform, a value for its weight will be displayed.
• Press the
Tare
key to tare the scale. The weight that was displayed is stored
as the tare value and that value is subtracted from the display, leaving zero on
the display. The arrow over "
Net
" will be on. As product is added only the net
weight of the product will be shown. The scale could be tared a second time if
another type of product was to be added to the first one. Again only the weight
that is added after taring will be displayed.
• When the container is removed a negative value will be shown. If the scale
was tared just before removing the container this value is the gross weight of
the container plus all products that were removed. The zero indicator will also
be ON because the platform is back to the same condition as it was when the
Zero
key was last pressed.
Second method of entering a tare value:
• This method allows you to enter a value for the tare weight from the keypad.
This is useful if all containers are the same or if the container is already full but
the net weight is required and the weight of the container is known.
• Remove all weights from the platform, press the
Zero
key to zero the display.
• Enter the value for the Tare weight including decimal point using the keypad,
press
Tare
to store the tare value. The weight will show a negative value equal
to the tare.
• Place the container on the platform.
• The display will then show the weight of the container minus the tare weight.
When the full container is placed on the platform the tare value will be
subtracted from the gross weight displaying only the net weight of the contents.
• If the value input is not consistent with the increment of the scale, the scale will
round the tare value to the nearest value possible. For example, if a tare value
of 103g is entered into the 60Kg scale with 5g readability, then the display will
show -105g.
• The tare value for each scale is held in memory so that they are not lost when
the active scale changes.
6.1.3 TARING THE REMOTE SCALE
Select the remote scale by pressing the
Local/Rem
key and then follow the same
procedure for taring as mentioned in the above sections.
