should be used if the indicator is used in process control applications where 
the indicator must power up running after a power outage. 
When the indicator starts “m2000" will scroll across the screen followed by 
the version number of the software. The indicator performs a full diagnostic 
of its internal circuits and will display any error messages if there is an 
internal problem with the indicator.
When the indicator is in calibration mode this key can be used to toggle
between displayed weight and AD converter internal counts.
3.1.2 ZERO Key
This key is used to zero the indicator. The scale cannot be zeroed if there is 
motion on the scale or the weight on the scale is out of the zero range. 
Three quick beeps will sound from the indicator if the zero key is unable to 
zero the indicator.
This key also functions as a ZERO key when the indicator is in calibration 
mode. 
3.1.3 TARE Key
This key is used for taring weight on the scale. A tare can also be entered
from the keypad. To tare from the scale simply press the tare key and what 
ever the weight on the scale will be tared. The NET indicator light should be 
illuminated showing that the indicator is in net weight display mode.
To manually tare from the keypad enter the weight using the numeric keypad 
followed the tare key. The indicator will only accept a tare from a stable and 
valid positive weight.
An invalid tare will cause error message 41 to be displayed. Pressing the tare 
key will always overwrite any previously stored tare weight. Use the clear key 
to clear the tare weight.
It is important to note that the tare key can be disabled in the calibration 
menu using parameter 50. 
3.1.4 CLEAR Key
This will clear any previously entered tare values entered using the tare key.
Clear will also function as an escape key to cancel any key entry operations.
3.1.5 PRINT SELECT Key
Print select is a dual function key. Pressing the key will cause a ticket to be 
printed to a connected printer. If you have typed a numeric value from the 
keyboard followed by the PRINT SELECT key then the key acts as a function 
select key. More information on this will be discussed below.
