6. OPERATION

6.1 AUTOMATIC ZERO UPON START-UP

The indicator has an "auto zero at start-up" function: in other words it means that if at start-up a weight within the
configured percentage (see section 7.8.1) of the capacity is detected, it will be zeroed; if the weight is not within this
tolerance, the display shows "Err 4" and with a non approved instrument the present weight after a few instants, while
with an approved instrument "Err 4" is shown continuously (one has to remove the weight in excess and turn on again
the scale).

6.2 SCALE ZERO

If there are no objects on the scale and the display shows a weight different than 0, press the ZERO key to clear (the
"ZERO" symbol turns on). If the weight is greater than the programmed percentage (see section 7.8.1) in respect to
the capacity, the zeroing will have no effect.
The zero function may be disabled in the set-up environment; see section 7.8.1.
The scale has an automatic rezeroing function to account for minor drifting or accumulation of material on the platform
(see section 7.8.1). However you may need to press the ZERO/ENTER key to rezero the scale if small amounts of
weight are shown when the platform is empty.

6.3 TARE FUNCTION

Zero the scale by pressing the ZERO key if necessary. The zero symbol will be on.
Place a container on the platform, a value for its weight will be displayed.
Press the TARE key to tare the scale when the "stable" is light. The weight that was displayed is stored as the tare
value and that value is subtracted from the display, leaving zero on the display. The "NET" indicator will be on. As
product is added only the weight of the product will be shown. The scale could be tared a second time if another type
of product was to be added to the first one. Again only the weight that is added after taring will be displayed.
When the container is removed a negative value will be shown.
To remove the tare, unload the scale and press again TARE.

6.4 OVERLOAD MESSAGE

Please do not add item that is over the maximum capacity. When reading "—OL—" and hear beeping sound,
remove the item on the platter to avoid damage to the load cell.

6.5 TOTALISATION OF THE WEIGHT

The scale can be set to accumulate manually the weight on the scale by pressing the PRINT/M+ key (see charter 7.7).
The weight displayed will be stored in memory and printed when the PRINT/M+ key is pressed and the weight is
stable.
The display will show "ACC 01" and then the total in memory for 2 seconds before returning to normal.
Remove the weight, allowing the scale to return to zero and put a second weight on. Press the PRINT/M+ key, the
display will show " ACC 02" and then the new total.
Continue until all weights have been added.
To view and print the totals in memory press PRINT/M+ key when current scale in zero status (Zero indicator on)
To clear the accumulated total weight, press the F key when show total values.
It's possible to cancel the accumulated total also in the set-up environment (see section 7.3)
