6. OPERATION
6.1 AUTOMATIC ZERO UPON START-UP
The indicator has an "auto zero at start-up" function: in other words it means that if at start-up a weight within the
configured percentage (see "0AUto" step, section 7.6) of the capacity is detected, it will be zeroed; if the weight is not
within this tolerance, the display shows "Err 4" and the present weight after a few instants.
6.2 SCALE SELECTION
With a remote scale, press the LOCAL / REMOTE scale to pass from the local scale to the remote scale or vice
versa.
The "WEIGHT" display shows the message "CHANGE" while the "UNIT WEIGHT" displays "LOCAL" to indicate that
the local scale has been selected or "REMOTE" to indicate that the remote scale has been selected.
6.3 SELECTION OF THE UNIT OF MEASURE
By pressing the UNITS key with the scale unloaded, the current unit of measure is selected (these are enabled in the
"Unit" step, section 7.2); in the "WEIGHT" display the relative symbol will turn on (see section 5).
6.4 SCALE ZERO
If there are no objects on the scale and the display shows a weight different than 0, press the ZERO key to clear (the
"ZERO" symbol turns on). If the weight is greater than the programmed percentage (see "0MAnL", section 7.6) in
respect to the capacity, the zeroing will have no effect.
The scale has an automatic rezeroing function to account for minor drifting or accumulation of material on the platform
(see "AZt" step, section 7.6). However you may need to press the ZERO key to rezero the scale if small amounts of
weight are shown when the platform is empty.
6.5 TARE FUNCTION
6.5.1 ENTRY OF SEMIAUTOMATIC TARE
Zero the scale by pressing the ZERO key if necessary. The "ZERO" symbol will be on.
Place a container on the platform, a value for its weight will be displayed.
Press the TARE key to tare the scale when the "stable" is light. The weight that was displayed is stored as the tare
value and that value is subtracted from the display, leaving zero on the display. The "NET" indicator will be on. As
product is added only the weight of the product will be shown. The scale could be tared a second time if another type
of product was to be added to the first one. Again only the weight that is added after taring will be displayed.
When the container is removed a negative value will be shown.
To remove the tare, unload the scale and press again TARE.
6.5.2 ENTRY OF PREDETERMINED MANUAL TARE
To enter the tare value type the value with the keyboard (including the decimal point) and press TARE.
The indicator automatically subtracts the entered value from the displayed weight (the NET symbol turns on) as long
as the value is not greater than the maximum capacity of the instrument.
The operation can be made with a loaded or unloaded platform.
In any case, the entry of a new Tare value cancels and substitutes the previous one.
6.5.3 TARE CANCELLATION
To cancel the stored tare:
- With an unloaded platform, press the TARE or ZERO keys.
- With a loaded platform press the numeric 0 key and then TARE.
