Taring; Taring The Remote Scale; Memory Functions - Intelligent QHD Series User's Operation Manual

6.1.2 TARING

Select the local or remote scale as applicable by pressing the Local/Rem key.
Preset tare values can be used with both the local and remote scale. If a new tare value
is to be used, there are two methods for entering a tare value. The first method uses
the weight on the platform and the second uses a value to be entered by the user.
First method of entering a tare value:
• Zero the scale by pressing the Zero key, if necessary. The arrow indicator over
"Zero" will be on.
• Place a container on the platform, a value for its weight will be displayed.
• Press the Tare key to tare the scale. The weight that was displayed is stored as
the tare value and that value is subtracted from the display, leaving zero on the
display. The arrow over "Net" will be on. As product is added only the net weight of
the product will be shown. The scale could be tared a second time if another type
of product was to be added to the first one. Again only the weight that is added
after taring will be displayed.
• When the container is removed a negative value will be shown. If the scale was
tared just before removing the container this value is the gross weight of the
container plus all products that were removed. The zero indicator will also be ON
because the platform is back to the same condition as it was when the Zero key
was last pressed.
Second method of entering a tare value:
• This method allows you to enter a value for the tare weight from the keypad. This
is useful if all containers are the same or if the container is already full but the net
weight is required and the weight of the container is known.
• Remove all weights from the platform, press the Zero key to zero the display.
• Enter the value for the Tare weight including decimal point using the keypad,
press Tare to store the tare value. The weight will show a negative value equal to
the tare.
• Place the container on the platform.
• The display will then show the weight of the container minus the tare weight.
When the full container is placed on the platform the tare value will be subtracted
from the gross weight displaying only the net weight of the contents.
• If the value input is not consistent with the increment of the scale, the scale will
round the tare value to the nearest value possible. For example, if a tare value of
103g is entered into the 60Kg scale with 5g readability, then the display will show
-105g.
• The tare value for each scale is held in memory so that they are not lost when the
active scale changes.

6.1.3 TARING THE REMOTE SCALE

Select the remote scale by pressing the Local/Rem key and then follow the same
procedure for taring as mentioned in the above sections.
