KEYPAD FUNCTIONS, CONT.
This is the LOCK/RELEASE key. It is used to lock and unlock the display. If
the HOLD feature was enabled during setup and calibration, pressing this key
(after obtaining a stable weight) will cause the indicator to lock onto the
weight. Pressing this key again will unlock the display and return it to zero.
If the AUTO LOCK feature was enabled, the weight display will lock after
placing a load on the scale and obtaining a stable weight value. Pressing this
key will unlock the display and return the weight display to zero, or if another
load is applied to the scale, lock onto the new weight after obtaining a stable
weight value. NOTE: The lock feature is for non-commercial (NOT "Legal for
Trade") applications.
Body Mass Index (BMI) Functions
This is the NET/GROSS key. It is used to toggle between Net and Gross
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 this key will cause a momentary display -Err- and the indicator will
remain in the Gross weight mode.
This is the TARE key. It is a dual function key. Pressing it and pressing the
PRINT/ENTER key (Pushbutton Tare mode) will cause the current gross
weight to be stored as the new tare weight and change the weight display to
the net weight display mode (
Net annunciator will turn on). Pressing this key,
entering a numeric value (Keypad Tare) and then pressing the PRINT/ENTER
key will cause the value entered to be accepted as the new tare weight.
This is the ID/HEIGHT key. This key is used to display and enter an
identification (ID) number use in the ID Storage feature and to enter the height
(feet and inches or centimeters) for the Body Mass Index (BMI) calculation.
Pressing this key will change the display to show the currently selected
identification (ID) number and allow the entry of a new ID number.
The identification (ID) number can be up to 11 digits. When entering an ID
number, the digits start displaying on the right side of the ID display and
proceed to the left. When an ID greater than 4 digits is used, the digits will
automatically scroll off the left side of the display to show the additional digits
on the right as they are entered.
This is the CLEAR key. It is used to clear an incorrect entry from the display
without processing the data. If an incorrect entry is made, press the CLEAR
key and re-enter the correct data. When entering the ID, pressing the CLEAR
key will act as a “backspace” key (it will back up one space and delete the
character in that space). NOTE: The CLEAR key must be pressed before
the PRINT/ENTER key to ensure the data is not processed.
NOTE: Tare weights equal to or greater than scale capacity cannot be entered.
In addition, the keypad tare weight division value must be the same as the scale
division value. For example, a unit with .05 kg as the division value will display
-Err- if you attempt to enter 1.03 for the tare weight.
