4.2 Weighing
The Indicator is shipped with kilograms only enabled. When the Indicator is to be used with other Type Approved/Legal
for Trade units of measure, the desired unit must be enabled. Refer to paragraph 3.9 to enable other measuring units.
The Indicator is equipped with a G/N/T button which allows the viewing of gross weight, net weight and tare weight. A
Tare button allows taring the weight of container, and a separate >0< zero button, zero's the Indicator display reading.
4.2.1 Manual Taring
When weighing material or objects that must be held in a container, manual taring stores the container weight in the
Indicator’s memory, separate from the weight of the material in the container.
When a container has been placed on the pan and tared, its weight is stored in memory. Adding material to the
container is shown as NET weight. The gross weight is a combination of the tared weight and the material. The G/N/T
button allows switching between GROSS, NET and TARE weights.
