							SF/SG Series Operating Instructions1. Zero Point Adjustment
The zero point is automatically adjusted when power is turned on. If the display shows a positive or
negative weight, the scale must be re-zeroed.
How to re-zero:
Step 1: Assure that nothing is on the weighing pan.
Step 2: Press                       .
Step 3: The WEIGHT display should read:
When weighing with a container, it is necessary to TARE out the weight of the container  in order to
get an accurate price/weight reading.
How to operate TARE:
Step 1: Place an empty container (e.g., 100 g) on the weighing pan. The display reads “ 100  ”.
Step 2: Press                       .
Step 3: The WEIGHT display should read:
Step 4: When removing the container from the pan, the display reads “ -100  ”.ZERO0NET  ZERO0.0000.000NET

TARENote:
When a TARE weight has been set, it is not possible to set a new TARE weight of
a lower value by the procedures above. It is necessary to delete the previous TARE

							SF/SG Series Operating Instructions3. Keypad Tare Entry
In addition to the tare adjustment described on the previous page, another tare adjustment is available.
It is to enter a TARE value with the numerical keypad.
How to enter a TARE using the numerical keypad:
       Step 1:  With nothing on the weighing pan, turn on the SF/SG scale.
                     The display should read:
                 If a unit price has previously been entered, the display may read, for example “2.00 ”,
   instead of  “ 0.00 ”. This is OK.
      Step 2:  Enter a new TARE (e.g., 100 g) using the numerical keypad. The TARE value appears in
   the UNIT PRICE display.
      Step 3:  Press the TARE  key.
   The new TARE appears in the WEIGHT display.1.00 UNIT PRICE7     8     9

							SF/SG Series Operating Instructions4. Setting a Unit Price
Step 1: Enter a unit price using the numerical keypad. Up to 6 digits may be entered.
 Example: Enter  a unit price of $5.50
Step 2: Unit price entry must be completed within 3 seconds. Any delay beyond 3 seconds  
        will require the unit price to be re-entered.Note about keypad tare entry:
•  When  a TARE weight has been set, an error message “ Err tr  ” will appear as shown below, if you
enter a lower value than the TARE weight.
•   If you enter a TARE weight greater than the weighing capacity of the scale, an error message “ Err tr  ”
 will appear as shown below.
•   To release the error shown above, press                        to return to the weighing mode.
•   Any previous TARE entries will be cancelled when                     is pressed.
•   To cancel a TARE weight that has been entered, remove any weight from the weighing pan
and press                       .0ZEROT

							SF/SG Series Operating Instructions5. Storing a Unit Price in Memory
Unit prices can be stored in memory for quick recall, by assigning a unit price to a Price Lookup (PLU)
key. The SF series scale has 30 PLU keys, thus can store 30 unit prices. The SG series scale has 12
PLU keys, thus can store 12 unit prices.
Assign a unit price to a PLU key as follows:
Step 1: Enter a unit price using the numerical keypad.
Step 3: Press the desired PLU key
within 3 seconds of entering
the unit price.
( If you do not select a PLU key within
  3 seconds, a beep will sound ).
The unit price is now stored in the 
selected key.
Step 1: Press the desired PLU key
Example:Obtain the total price of two items (A and B) purchased.
A. Weight 1000 g, Unit Price= $  5.00 / 100g, PLU key #1
B. Weight 5000 g, Unit Price= $10.00 / 100g, PLU key #2
Step 1: With nothing on the weighing pan, assure that the WEIGHT display reads “0.000 ”.
Step 2:  Place Item A on the weighing pan.
Step 3: Select an appropriate PLU key, PLU key #1, in this example.
Step 4:  Press                        to add the purchase to be totaled.
Step 5: Remove the item from the weighing pan. Place Item B on the weighing pan.
Select an appropriate PLU key, PLU key #2, in this example.
Press                         to add the purchase to the total in memory.Step 2: Press                       .

							SF/SG Series Operating Instructions9. Multiplier Function  (Max. pieces allowed = 99; Max. unit price = 999999)
Not all items are sold by the weight. Items such as canned goods and apples may be sold by the piece.
The SF/SG scale allows the operator to calculate all items purchased, those that require weigh/price
calculation and those that are sold by the piece, and provides the total price.
Example: A customer purchases 10 cans of tuna fish at a cost of $1.00 per can.
Step 1:  Enter the unit price using the appropriate PLU key, or the numerical keypad. The unit price
is displayed.
Step 2:Press the MULTIPLIER key. “PC “  appears
in the WEIGHT display.
Step 3:Enter the multiplier using the numerical
keypad. 10 in this example.
Each display reads:Note:  The multiplier function is not available in some countries.Note about Totaling Items:
•  The numerical keypad, PLU keys, and                          MULTIPLIER key may all be used during a single
transaction.                                                     (See “9. Multiplier Function” below.)
•  An item must be removed from the weighing pan before another item can be weighed and entered 
into totaling memory. The WEIGHT display must return to zero to re-set for next weighing..
•  The SF/SG scale has an automatic power off capability. If there is a long delay in the middle of a transaction
which causes the scale to shut off, press          . The displays read 0s.  Press                        to display the
total last calculated. Additional items may now be calculated into the total.XMODE(
