Taring weight display (TARE)
The Tare function is very useful if an additional weight, e.g. that of a wheelchair, is to be
ignored for weighing purposes.
Proceed as follows:
– Press the Start key with no load on the
scale.
– First place the additional weight (e.g.
the wheelchair) on the scale and activa-
te the Tare function by pressing and
holding the
HOLD/TARE
key.
The display is reset to zero.
0.0
appears
in the display. The note “NET” appears.
– Now move the patient and the
wheelchair previously weighed onto the
scale.
The scale determines the patient’s
weight.
You can now perform as many weig-
hing operations as you like.
– Hold the key down again to deactivate
the Tare function; the scale is then back
in normal weighing mode and the tare
value has been erased.
– The tare value is likewise erased by the
scale being switched off.
Store weight value (HOLD)
You can also continue displaying the weight determined once the load has been removed.
This makes it possible to look after a patient first, before having to note the weight.
– Press the
HOLD/TARE
key whilst the
load is on the scale.
“HOLD” appears in the digital display.
The value remains saved in the display
until the hold function is automatically
switched off.
– The HOLD function can be switched off
by pressing the
HOLD
key again.
0.0
appears in the display if the scale
has no load on it, otherwise the current
weight. The “HOLD“ display vanishes.
Note:
The HOLD function can also be used if the TARE function has been executed
beforehand.
