Tare Operation
In NET mode, pressing the Tare button will zero out the scale.
Press the Tare button briefly and the scale in NET mode will now show 000.00, indicating
the TARE command was successful.
If the message “TARE FAILED” appears, wait for the scale to settle and try again. If
the tare operation continues to fail, check the Motion Tolerance parameter established
during setup and adjust to allow for the unstable scale environment.
NOTE A scale in motion will show the symbol “
~
“ in the lower right hand corner of the
screen to indicate the scale has not settled.
The TARE command can also be initiated from the web page by left clicking the TARE
button.
A Tare Value can be set two ways:
1 Place an object (such as a container) onto the scale, press the TARE button either
on the front panel display or in the webpage. The Tare weight has now been set as
the weight of the object on the scale.
2 In SET UP, navigate to the Operations section, choose the Tare parameter and
select the Tare Weight option. Manually input the Tare value and press the Enter
key. The Tare value has now been set as the weight of the object.
3 The Tare Value can be viewed by navigating to the Operations menu, choosing the
Tare parameter and selecting the Tare Value option.
