• 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
[Tare/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 [Tare/Zero]
key to zero the display.
• Enter the value for the Tare weight including decimal point using
the keypad, press [Tare/Zero] 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.
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.
