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.
