Notice that the second page also has a , to
indicate that there are additional page(s) (in
this case, you have already viewed the other
page). Pressing the Menu Key again returns
the display to the first page.

The Menu Key has the same scrolling
function when a submenu is accessed.
Pressing the Menu Key scrolls through the
different pages of a submenu. Pressing the
Esc Key backs through the submenus one
level at a time and returns to the vessel
monitoring display.

F1, F2, and F3 Keys

The Function Keys — F1, F2, and F3 — are
used to select the items on the menus. The
faceplate has F1, F2, and F3 labeled under-
neath the LCD. When a menu is displayed,
the menu items are located above these
labels. Pressing the Function Key that
corresponds to the desired menu item
provides access to the menu item.

For example, when the Main Menu is dis-
played, the selections are:

Disp is above the F1 label on the faceplate,
I/O is above the F2 label, and Cal is above
the F3 label. Pressing the F3 Key accesses
the submenus under Cal.

Esc Key

The Esc Key has several functions:

• The Esc Key is used to back through the

submenus one menu level at a time.
Pressing this key while in the Main Menu
returns the display to vessel monitoring in
the Manual Mode.

• The Esc Key also has another function.

The Weigh II arrives from the factory with a
factory-set ID number assigned to each
channel. If you replaced the ID number
with a customer-defined ID while in the
Disp Menu, pressing the Esc Key while
the display is vessel monitoring in the
Manual Mode (Auto LED off) briefly
displays the factory-set ID.

Tare/Net/Gross Key

The Tare/Net/Gross Key is used when vessel
monitoring in the Manual Mode (Auto LED
off). This key works in conjunction with the
Shift Key:

• When the Shift Key is on (Shift LED

illuminated), the Tare Key is enabled.
Pressing this key ‘tares’ the vessel on the
display, setting the net weight value to
zero. The tare function is useful when you
want to monitor how much material is
added or removed from the vessel from a
given point. To tare the vessel, hold the
Tare Key for 1 second.

• When the Shift Key is off (Shift LED off),

the Net/Gross Key is enabled. Pressing
this key toggles the display between net
weight (weight added or removed from the
vessel since the last time the Tare Key
was enabled) and gross weight (total
weight of material in vessel).

Note

The Weigh II also has a remote tare
function. See TI-SP.W2-02 (single-
point) or TI-SP.W2.RTI-01 (multi-point)
in Appendix F, Technical Drawings for
wiring details. To tare the vessel from
the remote station, hold the remote
tare push button for 1 second.

The Weigh II must be vessel monitor-
ing in the Manual Mode (Auto LED off)
