2.3 Tare

In scale applications, tare is typically used to zero out a known weight such as

rigging, a container, or pallet and display the load in NET load/weight.

The MSI-8000HD tare function is defined as a Tare-In/Tare-Out operation.

The first press of the

Scale/Dyna-Link subtracts the value from the gross load and changes the display to

NET mode.

The second press of the

Tare- Rules for Use:

• Only positive gross load readings can be tared.

• The stable annunciator must be on. The load/force reading must be stable.

• Setting or changing the tare has no effect on the gross zero setting.

• Taring will reduce the apparent over range of the scale.

Example

Taring 100 pounds of rigging on a 1000 lb scale, the scale will overload at a net

load of 900 lb (1000-100) plus any additional allowed overload (usually about

4% or 9d).
