3.4 Weighing
Navigator TM balances are shipped with certain commonly used units of measure enabled. When the balance is to be
used with other units of measure, the desired unit must be enabled. Refer to paragraph 4.8 to enable other measur-
ing units and to the accompanying table which indicates the default settings.
Tare
When weighing material or objects that must be held in a container, taring stores the container weight in the bal-
ance’s memory separate from the weight of the material in the container.
( Example Material 1620g)
( Example Container 200g)
Procedure
• Press Zero button to rezero the display.
• Press Units button to select measuring unit.
• Press or button for desired measuring unit.
• Press Enter button, balance is now ready for weigh-
ing.
• Place the object(s) or material to be weighed on the
pan. Example illustrates a 200 gram weight on 6100g
capacity model.
• Wait for the stability indicator to appear before read-
ing the weight.
Procedure
• Press Zero button with no load on the pan to set the
balance to zero.
• Place an empty container on the pan. Its weight is
displayed.
• Press Tare button. The display flashes T SET, then
indicates zero net. The container’s tare weight is
stored in memory.
• Add material to the container. As material is added,
its net weight is displayed.
• Removing the container and material from the plat-
form will cause the balance to display the container’s
tare weight as a negative number. The tared weight
will remain in memory until Tare is pressed again or
the balance is turned off.
• Pressing Tare clears the tare value flashes T CLR and
resets the balance to gross weight.
Zero
If Tare has been previously entered, the balance will display T ENT, the balance will not be rezeroed. To zero the
display, press the Zero button. The zero range is limited to + 2% of the balance capacity.
