Overview
Stored tare weights allow for single weighments when the vehicle is full. Interact can store up to three tare types: Tare1, Tare2, and Tare3. the names of these tables can be custom configured according to the end user's specific application.
Tare Weight
Tare refers to the empty weight of the vehicle. Gross refers to the vehicle weight plus the load. Net refers to the gross weights minus the Tare weight.
Material Direction
Interact determines how a stored tare weight is used based on the default material direction set in Weigh Options. When the default material direction is set to Outgoing any stored tares will be stored in the Weigh In field during a transaction. When the default material direction is set to Incoming any stored tares will be stored in the Weigh Out field during a transaction.
The default direction can always be changed during a transaction or set differently in the Job Item.
