Toggle Gross/Net Mode

Press the

key to switch the display mode

from gross to net, or from net to gross. If a tare value
has been entered or acquired, the net value is the gross

Gross mode is indicated by the word

.

Accumulator Functions

The accumulator must be enabled before use in either
normal mode or setpoint operations. Once enabled,
weight (net weight if a tare is in the system) is
accumulated whenever a print operation is performed
using the

PRINT

key, digital input, or serial command.

The scale must return to zero (net zero if a tare is in
the system) before the next accumulation.

The

Display Accum

softkey can be configured to

display the current accumulator value. Printing while
the accumulator is displayed, or when the setpoint
PSHACCUM function is active, uses the ACCFMT
print format (see Section 6.0 on page 57).

Press the

CLEAR

key twice to clear the accumulator.

Softkey Operations

Softkeys can be defined to provide additional operator
functions for specific applications. Softkey assignments
are listed on the tabs shown at the bottom of the LCD
display; softkey functions are activated by pressing the
arrow keys below the softkey tabs (Figure 1-1 on
page 2
).

The particular set of softkeys shown on the display is
determined by the indicator configuration and
program.
