Tare (tare A, tare B)
The tare function zero’s out the display. In the case of scale weight, tare
is used to eliminate container weight and provide net weight readings.
There are two tare functions; Capture Tare for channel A and B, and
Reset Tare. Display channel indicator letter flashes when a tare is used.
It will flash until the tare is reset.

Internal Calibration (ICAL)
The meter is factory calibrated prior to shipment
to read in milliamps and volts depending on the
input selection. The calibration equipment is
certified to NIST standards.
The use of calibrated signal sources is necessary to perform the internal
calibration of the meter.
Check calibration of the meter at least every 12 months. Each input
must be recalibrated separately.
Notes:
1. If meter is in operation and it is intended to
accept only one input type (e.g. 4-20 mA),
recalibration of other input is not necessary.
2. Allow the meter to warm up for at least
15 minutes before performing the internal
calibration procedure.
The Internal calibration menu is part of the Advanced Features menu.
1. Press and hold the Menu button for three seconds to access the
advanced features of the meter.
2. Press the Up arrow button to scroll to the Internal calibration menu
(ICAL) and press Enter.
