Tare (tare)
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 and Reset Tare.

Internal Source Calibration (ICAL)
The meter is factory calibrated prior to ship-
ment to read in milliamps and volts depending
on the input selection. The calibration equip-
ment is certified to NIST standards.
The internal source allows the user to scale the meter without applying a
signal.
The use of calibrated signal sources is necessary to perform the internal
source 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
source 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.
