Notes

• Use the [O/T] key to erase the tare or zero the balance at any time.

•Pressing the [POWER] key in the interval timer standby state brings the

power supply standby state.

• Interval Timer setting can be cleared without menu operation, by press-

ing the [POWER] key for about three seconds. This does not clear the

set time interval value.

• Using the interval timer function to record data over a long period may

cause data error due to balance drift.

• Some instruments receiving the data may not operate normally if the set

time interval is short. To correct this, set the time interval to a longer

period. When the set time interval is short and the instrument connected

to DATA I/O is unknown, it is recommended to set the handshake to a

setting other than “H-tm” .

• Not more than one of these seven functions can be set at a time. Setting

the second one with the menu will automatically clear the previously set

function; Auto Print(13.3), Auto Zero(13.4), Peak Hold(14.3), Interval

Timer(14.4), Add-on mode(14.5), Animal Weighing mode(14.6), Formu-

lation mode(14.7).
