Operation
Weighing
Purpose
The basic weighing function is available
in the compact scale at all times.
You can use this function alone, or in
combination with the application
programs (Toggling between weight
units, Gross/net toggling).
Features
– Zero the scale
Sometimes the scale does not show
a zero readout even though there is no
load on the weighing pan. This is gen-
erally due to unfavorable ambient con-
ditions. If the difference to zero does
not exceed 2% of the scale’s maximum
capacity, it can be corrected by zeroing
the scale.
– Tare the scale
To obtain a readout of the net weight
of a sample in a container, place the
empty container on the scale and press
the
)
[Tare] key before adding the
sample.
– Print the results (optional connection)
or transfer data over the interface
(optional connection) to a computer.
