6.2 Weighing
Switch the balance on by pressing the key.
The balance will show “88888“ for approx. 3 seconds and then change to “0“. Now
it is ready for use.
Important: If the display does not show “0“ press the or key
(details in capture 7.2.2 or 7.2.3).
Only now (!) place object on the weighing pan. Make sure that the weighing object
does not stripe or touch the housing or base.
Now the weight will be indicated. After a successful „resting position“ control a
small triangle will appear on the far right at the bottom of the display.
If the object should be heavier than the weighing range allowance, the symbol “E“
(overload) will appear on the display and a tone can be heard.
6.3 Taring ( key)
Switch the balance on by pressing the key, then wait for the “0“ indication.
Place the jiffy on the weighing pan and press the key. Display again shows
“0“. Now the weight of the jiffy is memorised internally.
By pressing the key after a weighing procedure, “0“ will appear on the display
again.
The taring procedure can be repeated continuously, for instance when mixing sev-
eral components.
The limit is reached when the full weighing range is overlaid.
After having removed the jiffy the total weight will appear flashing as a minus indi-
cation.
6.4 Zeroing the balance ( ->verifiable balances)
Due to environmental influences, the balance may not display exactly "0.00“ even
when the weighing plate is empty. Nevertheless, you can zero the balance display
at any time to ensure that weighing actually starts at zero. Zeroing with some
weight on the balance can only be done within a certain range, depending on type.
If the balance does not allow zeroing with the weight on the plate, the weight is out-
of-range.
