Reset Menu (reset)
The Reset menu is used to reset the tare (rst tr) and the maximum or
minimum readings (peak or valley) reached by the process; max & min
may be reset at the same time by selecting “reset high & low” (rst HL).
Note: Resetting the tare resets the max & min readings.
Tare Menu (Tare)
The Tare menu is used to select the tare mode. There are three modes
of operation: Capture Tare, Programmable Tare, and Off.
Capture Tare:
Pressing the Tare key zeroes the display and the “T”
indicator flashes indicating that tare is applied to the reading (e.g. Net
weight).
Programmable Tare:
Program a known value to be subtracted from the
display value to obtain the net value. Pressing Reset tare clears the tare
value to zero. Programmable Tare will not tare negative PVs. Use
Capture Tare for negative PVs.
Off
: Tare function is disabled and pressing Tare key has no effect.
Tare Functionality (tare)
The tare function zeroes out the display. In the case of scale weight,
tare is used to eliminate container weight and provide net weight
readings.
