SETUP ZERO
In some applications it is desirable to have the scale return to a number other than zero. This is used in safety
applications where the weight of the scale itself must be taken into account, showing all weight hanging on a
crane. This feature may be disabled in Legal-for-trade units.

1) Push SETUP.
2) Push the ZERO key. The display enters the Setup
ZERO mode.
3) Push ENTER. The current Zero offset value is dis-
played.
4) Use the numeric keys to change the zero offset as
desired.
In this example, we’ll enter 60 kg as a zero offset.
5) Push ENTER to set your Zero offset value into
memory.
This is the number the scale will display after you push Zero.
6) Push the EXIT key to return to normal scale opera-
tion.
TARE
Tare is typically used to zero out a known weight such as a packing container or pallet and display the load in
NET weight. A Tare value is entered in one of three ways:
1) AUTO TARE – When the TARE key is pushed twice, the current weight is zeroed and Net Weight is dis-
played.
2) KEYBOARD TARE – Using the numeric keys, the operator keys in the desired Tare Weight then pushes the
ENTER Key.
3) TARE UP/DOWN – Using the Scroll Keys, the Tare value is changed one scale division at a time. TARE
UP/DOWN is useful for increasing or decreasing the current Tare value slightly. The Keyboard Tare and Tare
Up/Down modes can be disabled through the use of SETUP TARE. In the “AUTO” mode a single push of
the TARE key will enact AUTO TARE.
To Auto Tare

1) Push TARE. The current Tare value is displayed.
If the TARE key is setup for “AUTO” only one push of the TARE key will be
necessary.
2) Push TARE again. Assuming no motion, the display
temporarily reads “TARE SET” and then converts to
a “NET” display. All following readings are devia-
tions from the set Tare value.
