4.0 KEY DESCRIPTIONS [0-9, •] These keys are used to manually enter a value for tare weights, unit weight and sample size. A secondary function is to enter alpha-numeric characters for PLU descriptions etc. [CE] Pressing this key clears the unit weight or an erroneous entry. It also clears the memor...

[Local Rem] This key is used to select the local or remote scale. [Tare/Zero] This key has a combined Zero and Tare function. If the net weight is below ±2% of maximum then it acts as a Zero key. This sets the zero point for all subsequent weighing by setting the display to zero. It also tares the s...

5.2 UNIT WEIGHT WINDOW • This display will show the unit weight of a sample. This value is either entered by the user manually or computed by the scale. The unit of measure is either gram on all scales with kilogram selected as weighing unit or in pounds. • When the scale has determined that there i...

6.0 OPERATION • The basic weighing functions are same for both the scales- local and remote. However the number of weighing divisions may be less on the remote scale dependant on the total capacity of the load cell/s used. • Each scale (local or remote) has the ability to count parts based on the cu...

• When the container is removed a negative value will be shown. If the scale was tared just before removing the container this value is the gross weight of the container plus all products that were removed. The zero indicator will also be ON because the platform is back to the same condition as it w...
