Normal Mode Functionality in Home Position
4.1 Functionality in Home Position
4.1.1 Zero Scale
Use function to set scale to zero.
After key operation, any zero point deviation (e.g. due to grime) is corrected on
relieved scale. Display reads 0.0 [unit]. In addition, symbol
is displayed.
Zero setting is possible only if
• Scale is not tared
zeroing range (visualized by a dot) • Gross weight of load on scale is within
• Scale is in no-motion (>< on display).
If this is not the case, an event message is output and display remains unchanged.
Sample application:
You are weighing vehicles with extremely dirty tyres. After several weighing
operations, scale platform is grimed. Empty scale indicates weight of grime in place of
zero. Use menu item to zero scale to prevent this from occurring.
4.1.2 Acquire Tare
After key operation, current GROSS weight is stored in the scale's tare
memory.
Attention: Existing values are overwritten.
Display reads 0.0 [unit] if NET display type has been selected (default). If the
display ist set to GROSS, the stored tare value is indicated by the 'T' symbol in
the display.
4.1.3 Clear Tare
Tare is set to 0 (scale's tare memory is cleared). NET = GROSS; display
shows weight of load on scale. Symbol 'T' or 'PT' effaces.
4.1.4 Function Keys
The [UP arrow], [LEFT arrow] and [RIGHT arrow] buttons provide six 'functions keys'
that can be assigned in combination with the [SHIFT] button. Since the available
functionality depends on the loaded scale software, we cannot give any detailed
description at this point. You can find out these buttons can be assigned in the
description of the specific scales in Section 6.
