ZERO: The ZERO key is used to zero the weight
display. Up to the selected limit of 4% or 100%
of the scale’s capacity can be zeroed. This limit
is selected during the setup and calibration of the
weight transmitter.
Note that the weight transmitter will not respond
to pressing the ZERO key unless the weight
display is stable.
TARE: The TARE key is used during normal
operation to store the current Gross weight as
the new Tare weight. The display will change to
the Net weight and the Net annunciator will turn
on.
NET/GROSS: The NET/GROSS key is used to
toggle between the Gross and Net weight
modes. The selected mode is indicated by
turning on the appropriate annunciator on the
display.
Note that if no valid tare weight has been
entered, pressing the NET/GROSS key will
cause a momentary display error (notArE) and
the weight transmitter will remain in the Gross
weight mode.
F1/ (Left Arrow): The F1/ key is used for
several functions.
During setup, the F1/ key is used to
advance the cursor left to the next position
when inputting setup parameters.
In normal operation, the F1/ key is used to
select the function it was assigned during
the setup of the Preferences parameter.
For example, if it was assigned the UNITS
function, it is used to select the units in
which the weight is to be displayed. The
available units of measure (primary or
secondary units) are selected in setup. The
available units include pounds, kilograms,
and grams.
