If you know the weight of an item such as a food container or wrapping that you use to contain or pack items on the scale and you want to use this as a tare weight, you can manually enter the tare weight into the scale. The scale deducts the weight of the tare item from the total gross weight and displays the net weight and the total price of the item only. N NOTE: When you have entered a tare weight the scale displays a minus figure in the weight display to represent the tare weight. N NOTE: At step 6 you can manually enter the unit price of the item or you can recall the item price using either a direct PLU or an indirect PLU. See Sections 4.9 - 4.12 for information about PLUs. To enter a tare weight that you know and then weigh an item that has the same tare weight do the steps as follows: Fig 4-4.

N NOTE: At step 6 you can manually enter the unit price of the item or you can recall the item price using either a direct PLU or an indirect PLU. Refer to Sections 4.9 - 4.12 for information about PLUs. FX50_User.book Page 31 Thursday, August 23, 2007 2:31 PM4.

You do this to multiply the total price of items that are priced in divisions of pound units, such as a quarter pound and half a pound. N NOTE: At step 6 you can manually enter the unit price of the item or you can recall the item price using either a direct PLU or an indirect PLU. Refer to Sections 4.9 - 4.12 for information about PLUs. To multiply a unit price you entered by a multiple of either two or four do these steps: Fig 4-9.

4.9 Programming direct PLUs

N NOTE: You can press the direct PLU keys to recall the units of weight and the item prices of particular items after you have saved this information in the scale’s memory. You can enter and store the units of weight (or the price base for UK, Europe and RoW scale variants) together with different unit prices to the twelve direct Price Look-Up (PLU) keys on the keyboard. This allows you to recall and use a unit price that you have already stored in the scale’s memory against a direct PLU key. This means you can quickly weigh items that you sell a lot of without the need to type unit prices for particular items each time you weigh them. To store the units of weight (or the price base) together with a price against an example direct PLU of number 8 do the steps as follows: Fig 4-10. Programming direct PLUs N NOTE: An additional 38 indirect PLUs are available. See Sections 4.11 and 4.12. FX50_User.book Page 34 Thursday, August 23, 2007 2:31 PMEnglish

When you have programmed unit prices against direct PLU keys you can weigh items more quickly by recalling the preset unit prices you programmed using the direct PLU keys such as . To weigh an item using an example direct PLU of number 8 do the steps as follows: N NOTE: You can use two methods to weigh items using direct PLUs. You can put the item on the scale and then press the direct PLU key or you can press the direct PLU key and then put the item on the scale (see steps 2 & 3 below). Fig 4-11.

4.11 Programming indirect PLUs

N NOTE: Indirect PLUs work the same way as direct PLUs except that, to recall an indirect PLU, you press the key and then manually type the indirect PLU number. You can enter and store the units of weight (or the price base for UK, Europe and RoW scale variants) together with different unit prices against up to 38 indirect PLU keys that have PLU numbers from 13 to 50 assigned to them. This allows you to recall and use a unit price that you have already stored in the scale’s memory. This means you can quickly weigh items that you sell a lot of without the need to type unit prices for particular items each time you weigh them. To store the units of weight (or the price base) together with a price against an example indirect PLU of number 20 do the steps as follows: Fig 4-12.
