• Tare (TARE):
Enabling the Tare function will set the current pressure reading as the zero
reference pressure in order to measure a net change in pressure as opposed to
measuring the gross pressure.
Enabling the Tare feature:
Step 1: Press to enter the main setup menu.
Step 2: Press or to cycle through the options until TARE is displayed.
Step 3: Press to access the Tare setting options.
Step 4: Press or to toggle between OFF and ON.
Step 5: Press button to apply the displayed option and return to main setup
menu.
NOTE 1: When tare function is enabled, the icon will appear in the upper
center of the display.
WARNING: Do NOT disconnect the gauge from the pressure fi tting while
the tare function is enabled. The gauge could still be under pressure even
though the reading shows 0.
NOTE 2: If the maximum gross full-scale pressure value is reached while the
Tare feature is enabled, the PG10 will automatically disable the Tare feature
and return to reading the gross pressure in order to help prevent the user from
accidently overpressuring the gauge.
NOTE 3: Pressing and holding with the tare function enabled will re-tare
the gauge at the current pressure value.
