4.2.2 Preset Taring
Preset taring is used to enter a tared weight via the numerical keypad. If a container's weight is known, the Indicator
may be preset using the numerical keypad to enter the weight. When using this feature, a time constraint of 4 seconds
is imposed to start entering data, otherwise the Indicator defaults back to a weighing mode.
Procedure
• Press >0< button with no load on the pan to set the
Indicator reading to zero.
• Press the number 0 on the numeric keypad, the
display indicates P>TARE 00000.00 kg with the
second digit blinking. Using the keypad, enter the
desired tare weight. Remember the weight is either in
pounds or kilograms whatever was set previously. If
the number is not entered, the display indicates an
ERROR CODE 2.1; this is normal. The Indicator
returns to a weighing mode automatically. If entered
correctly, the tare weight is stored in the Indicator.
• Press Enter button, Indicator is now ready for weigh-
ing. The display indicates NET WEIGH and the
amount of tare weight as a negative number. The
illustration indicates a 2kg weight. The next two steps
are for an empty container and a full container.
• Place the empty container on the pan. If the weight
entered was correct, the display indicates 0.00 kg.
Material may be added to the container, the display
indicates the net weight.
• Place a container with material on the pan. The
display indicates NET WEIGH of the material only. The
weight of the container which was entered is automati -
cally subtracted. Illustration indicates a 10kg of
material in a 2kg container.
• Each press of the G/N/T button will advance the
display to NET WEIGH (net weight), B/G WEIGH
(gross weight) which includes the container's weight,
and PT WEIGH (preset tare weight of the container).
The tare weight remains in memory until the Tare but-
ton is pressed or the Indicator is unpluged from the
power source.
• Pressing Tare clears tare from memory.
