OPERATION WITHOUT ID, Cont.
Tare Weight Entry
1. With the scale in the Gross Weight mode (GROSS
annunciator illuminated and the Count display blank),
press the TARE key. The display will show zero or the
previously entered tare (if any) and the TARE
annunciator will turn on.
2. Using the numeric keypad, enter the desired tare
(container) weight. Note: When entering tare values, a
maximum of 4 digits can be entered and that the
numbers advance from right to left in the display. The
number of leading or trailing zeros required to obtain
your desired tare entry is dependent upon the DIVISION
VALUE selected in the calibration procedure.
For example:
Division Value: 0.001
Desired Tare Value: 0.50lb
Key Sequence: 5
Division Value: 0.01
Desired Tare Value: 1.5lb
Key Sequence: 1 5
3. After the desired tare value has been entered, press the
ENTER key. The display will show the Net weight
(Gross minus tare) and the NET annunciator will
illuminate.
4. Proceed with the counting or weighing operation.
Metric Conversion
To change weighing units, simply press the lb/kg key to
toggle between pounds and kilograms.
Note that either the lb or kg annunciator will illuminate to
indicate which weighing unit is selected.
OPERATION USING ID(S)
This section describes the various operating procedures of the Digital Counting scale using the
ID mode. The ID (identification number) function may be thought as a catalog of stored values for
up to 300 separately identifiable counting operations. Those values, stored under an assigned ID
number, are: the TARE WEIGHT
1
(if used), the UNITS (Average Piece Weight) and the
ACCUMULATED COUNT of a counting operation. They are accessed by entering the assigned
ID number.
1
A TARE WEIGHT value can be stored for both the Local and Remote scale, allowing the
operator to use a small container for the sample and a pallet, tote or the shipping box for the
final item count. If required, the stored Tare weight value for an ID can be added or updated
before or during a Count or Sample operation.
