Automatic Taring
The first weight on the scale that
exceeds the preset minimum load is
stored in the tare memory at stability.
The values for subsequent loads
are stored as weight values. The scale
returns to the initial state when the
load is less than 50% of the minimum
load. Operating menu setting:
Appl: (application)
weigh: (basic weighing)
3.7. (autotare first weight)
Minimum Load
To tare container weights auto-
matically, you need to set a minimum
load in the Setup menu, under:
Appl: (application)
weigh: (basic weighing)
3.5. (Min. load for autotaring)
You can choose from the following
10 levels, defined in scale intervals
(digits):
1 digit (no minimum load)
2 digits
5 digits
10 digits
20 digits
50 digits
100 digits
200 digits
500 digits
1000 digits
If the scale interval (d) is 1000 g, for
example, and the minimum load is set
to 1000 digits (=1000 scale intervals),
a load of at least 1000 g is required for
autotaring.

The first weight value that exceeds
the minimum load is printed.
