• As a product is added only the 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 those were removed. The indicator above “Zero” will also be ON b

6.3.6 Automatic Accumulated Totals • The scale can be set to automatically accumulate totals when a weight is placed on the scale. This eliminates the need to press the [M+] key to store values into the memory. However the [M+] key is still active and can be pressed to store the values immediately. In this case the values will not be stored when the scale returns to zero. • See the Section 9.0 on RS-232 Interface for details on how to enable Automatic Accumulation. 7.0 PARAMET
