OPERATIONZEROING THE DISPLAYPress the [Zero] key when the platform is empty.[Zero] key may be pressed at any time to set the zero pointfrom which all other weighing and counting is measured.When the zero point is obtained the “O” indicator will be on inthe left bottom corner of the LCD.The balance has an automatic re-zeroing function to accountfor minor drifting or accumulation of material on the platform.However you may need to press the [Zero] key to re-zerothe balance if small amounts of weight are shown when theplatform is empty.TARINGZero the balance by pressing the [Zero] key, if necessary.The “O” indicator will be on.Place a container on the platform, a value for its weight willbe displayed.Press the [Tare] key to tare the balance. The weight that wasdisplayed is stored as the tare value. It is subtracted from thedisplayed value, leaving zero on the display. The NETsymbol will be on at the right top corner to indicate that theweight displayed is the net weight.As the product is added, only the net weight will be shown.The balance could be tared a second time if another type ofproduct was to be added to the first one. Again only theweight that is added after taring will be displayed.When the container is removed a negative value will beshown. If the balance was tared just before removing thecontainer, this value is the gross weight of the container plusall products those were removed.The “O” indicator will also be on because the platform is backto the same condition as it was when the [Zero] key was lastpressed.To cancel the tare value, press [Tare] again.Page: 8
