Gross/Net/Tare (F30 = 0)
Gross weight refers to the total weight of a product and its packaging. Conversely, net weight
refers to the weight of the product alone, discounting the weight of its container or packaging;
and tare weight is the weight of the packaging alone.
Push Button Tare

Note: If the entered tare weight is out of range, for example if it exceeds scale capacity,
then the tare weight will be rejected.

Standard Digital Outputs
For the Gross/Net/Tare application, the digital outputs continuously track the displayed weight.
Specifically, each digital output tracks its corresponding set point: OUT1 tracks Set Point 1
(SP1); OUT2 tracks Set Point 2 (SP2), etc.
• When the displayed weight is below the set point, the digital output is Active.
• When the displayed weight is equal to or greater than the set point, the digital output is
Inactive (Cutoff).
