the scale will zero.
3) The scale will accept a zero setting over the full Range of the scale (NTEP and other Legal-for-trade models may
have a limited zero range). Zero settings above 4% of full scale will subtract from the overall capacity of the scale.
For example if you zero out 100 lb. on a 1000 lb. scale the overall capacity of the scale will reduce to 900 lb. plus

the allowed over-range amount.
TARE
Tare is typically used to zero out a known weight such as a packing container or pallet and display the load in
NET weight. A Tare value is entered in either of two ways:
1) PUSH BUTTON TARE – When the
TARE
key is pressed, the current weight is zeroed and Net Weight is
displayed.
2) KEYBOARD TARE – Using the numeric keys, the operator keys in the desired Tare Weight then presses the
TARE
Key.

Tare - Rules for Use:
1) Only positive gross weight readings can be tared. Weight can be tared in both the NET and GROSS modes.
When in the NET mode, the TARE is not cumulative, all the weight is tared off (to Net zero).
2) The motion annunciator must be off. The weight reading must be stable.
3) Setting or changing the tare has no effect on the Gross zero setting.
4) Taring will reduce the apparent over range of the scale. For example, taring a 10 lb. container on a 60 lb.
scale, the scale will overload at a net weight of 50 lb. (60-10) plus any additional allowed overload (usually
~4% or 9d).
5) The scale stores the Tare value in the current ID Code memory until cleared. Each available ID Code can
store independent Tare values.
