preset unit price values correspond with what quick access keys). Numbering of quick access keys depend on the status
of the display tag REG (refer to paragraph 1.3 Quick Access Keypad). It may be necessary to change the status of the
display tag REG with the key
corresponding quick access key.

2.3 Entering Tare Weight

Tare weight is used when it is impossible to measure the weight of an item without tare or when an item is
prepackaged with tare of a preset value. A scale operator has to enter tare weight, so that the scale could calculate the
net weight of the item. In this case, the gross weight of a product (the total weight of the measured item together with
the tare) should not exceed Max. Max and Tare Max Weight parameters of the scale are indicated on the special sticker
under the display. After tare weight has been entered in one of the foreseen methods, the display tag NET switches on
and the scale displays the net weight of the measured product. The mode in which tare weight is being entered is called
Tare Weight Selection Mode.
There are three ways to enter tare weight value:
Measure a non-preset tare weight on the scale;
Key in tare weight value with the numeric keys;
Automatically select a preset tare weight from PLU.
If the scale is in Tare Weight Selection Mode (the display tag NET is on), it is necessary to discard the previously
entered tare weight value in order to enter a new tare weight value. If tare weight value has been automatically selected
from a PLU, it will be discarded by deselecting the PLU. Otherwise remove the product and the tare from the platter/pan
and press the key
. The display tag NET will turn off, and the display tag ZERO will turn on.
NOTE. It may be sometimes necessary to override a tare weight value of an item automatically selected from a selected
PLU (the display tag PLU is on). Use the key
value with the numeric keys or by measuring it on the scale. Deselecting an item with the tare weight set that way
would not discard the new tare weight value.

2.3.1 Measuring Unknown Tare Weight on Scale

To enter unknown tare weight value by measuring it on the scale, follow the procedure:
Make sure that the platter/pan is empty;
If the display tag ZERO is off, press the key
If the display tag REG is on, turn it off by pressing the key
Place the empty tare on the platter/pan and wait for the weight value readings to stabilize;
Press the key
Place an item in the tare and then put all together on the platter/pan.
NOTE. To do a series of weighing and cost calculation of miscellaneous products sharing the same tare (as well as to
print labels and/or add sales amounts to the grand totals memory for every measurement), a scale operator can use
the key
to repeatedly execute the tare-out operation: all the gross weight on the platter/pan will be treated as tare
before setting unit price. Then select the required unit price value by pressing a
to do it (to item will still be selected) and then enter a new tare weight
to set the weight value to zero. The display tag NET turns on;
– the tag ZERO will turn on;
