Platform Scale 9K0U Operator Guide SV61955 Rev. A

The weight hold feature is useful when weighing large enve-
lopes that block the display, if the keyboard-display module
is located near the platform and being blocked. This feature
retains the weight reading for a brief time after you remove
an item from the scale. It allows you to continue selecting
class and fees even though the item is no longer on the scale.
Pressing any key (for example, to select a class or fee) other
than zero extends the weight hold time for that transaction.
You may activate weight hold mode in two ways: manually
with the Scale Functions key or automatically through setup.

To use the manual weight hold feature (for one transac-
tion):
1. Use one of the following methods (with no weight on the
