ARE
Press [TARE] alone to perform an auto-tare. (A net weight of zero is then
displayed.) To enter a known Tare Weight, key in the value and press
[TARE]. In either case, the controller is placed in the net mode, unless it is
already in the tare mode.
Auto-Tare and / or Keyboard Tare can be disabled in the setup mode
(P802). This parameter enables the standard auto-tare key operations or
allows a macro to be selected. If the macro is not programmed, the tare
key is effectively disabled. The macro can also be programmed to detect
keyboard entries. A macro setup such as this allows for keyboard tare
entries or strictly auto-tare operations.
Also refer to P162, P163 and P660 for setup parameters that control the
tare operation.
P
RINT
Press [PRINT] to send custom specified data to a printer, computer, or
other device. If the specified custom transmit does not exist (for example,
has not been set up yet) or is set for "off" at P991 then "NOT FOUND" is
displayed and the print operation is aborted.
ID
The [ID] key has multiple functions. You can use it to:
•
Access variables
•
Access the macro menu selections (see page 9-9)
•
Access the database menu selections (see page 11-6)
•
Invoke a specific macro (see page 3-41).
The exact function of this key depends on the how it is defined in the setup
mode at P806 (see page 3-41).
To access a variable using the [ID] key, simply key in the variable number
and press [ID]. For example, pressing
5 [ID]
will access variable #5.
A / F
RROW UNCTION
The arrow keys, also known as the cursor keys or function keys, have two
primary functions outside the setup mode – invoking macros and scroll in
alpha-numeric characters during an operator entry.
Invoking Macros
In the weigh mode, pressing [F1], [F2], [F3], [F4] or [F5] will invoke
macros 1 à 5 respectively. If a macro is not programmed for one of these
keys, the key is considered disabled for invoking macros in this manner.
Entering Alpha-Numeric Characters
During operator entries for string variables or entries initiated by a macro
command, the arrow keys take on the role of cursor keys allowing you to
