OPERATION
POWER UP TEST
When the scale is turned on, all display segments will
be displayed for a few seconds, indicating that the unit
is self adjusting to zero. Once the "0" is displayed, the
scale is ready for use.
STABLE READING INDICATION
A star indicator will appear in the lower left corner of the
display when a stable reading has been reached.
OVERLOAD
If the applied load exceeds the capacity of the scale,
an "E" will appear on the display and the load should
be removed immediately. The scale will return to normal
operation.
TARE FUNCTION
Values can progressively be added to a sample. By
pressing the
ON/OFF ZERO
button, the scale display
returns to zero. After adding additional mass, press
ON/OFF ZERO
to zero the scale again. Additional mass
may be added up to the capacity of the scale.

When a load is removed from the scale, any zeroed
value will be displayed as a negative number. To
return to normal operation, the zeroed value can be
cancelled by pressing
ON/OFF ZERO
button.
