Tare
Normal tare

Tare

. Normal and Automatic tare work in a similar way, except that
Automatic Tare automatically compensates for the slightly different weight
of trays or boxes that are placed on the platform.
This means that you can place different trays on the scale’s platform
without having to press the
TARE key every time you change trays –
the Automatic Tare function will do that for you.
Preset Tare
Preset Tare, however, is different in that it is the user himself who enters a
tare value of his own choice, instead of a weight detected by the scale.
This method can be useful in certain situations, for example in packing
systems where the weight of the packing material is known.
Preset Tare is only available in packing mode.
Tare in multiple range
weighing
For details on how tare functions in multiple range weighing, see “Multiple
Range Operation” on page 21.

Preset Tare is only available in market areas where the function has been approved by the proper authorities.
