Net/Gross Switch

Switches the display between net and gross modes temporarily.
1. NET/GROSS works even when the scale is in motion.

3. In NET mode: displays gross weight for 4 seconds. GROSS displays then returns to NET.

Tare In/Tare Out Switch

Sets and removes tare.
1. Only positive weight readings can be tared.
2. The scale only tares when it is in gross mode.
3. The motion annunciator must be off and the weight reading must be stable.
4. Setting or changing the tare has no effect on the zero setting.
5. Taring reduces the apparent over-range of the scale.
Example: If a 1000 lb container was tared and the scale capacity is 5000 lb, the scale overloads at a net weight of
4000 lb plus additional allowed
If no current tare is set:
1. The entire range of the scale can be tared. If the motion condition is met the display temporarily displays TARE SET
then converts to NET display and the digits register Ø. All subsequent readings are deviations from the set tare value.
2. Once tare is set, the scale displays NET weight.
3. To remove the tare value, select TARE; The tare value is cleared, the scale returns to gross mode.
