If you want to use a basket on your Mettler Toledo scale, you’ll need to tare the scale first. Please see video and instructions below:
Set Communication Mode
On the Mettler Toledo display, the default communication mode is HIDPOS. You’ll need to change it to Virtual USB.
Hold the UP button for about 5 seconds until the configuration screen appears.
Navigate to SETUP → COM → USB → VIRTUAL SERIAL.
Save and Reboot
Go back to HOME → END → SAVE → EXIT.
The scale will reboot automatically.
Tare the Basket
Once the scale restarts and shows 0.00, place your basket on the scale.
Press the M (Mode) key and select WtTare, then exit the menu.
Navigate to the T (Tare) icon.
The display should now show 0.00 again, meaning the basket weight has been tared out.
Ready to Weigh
Your scale is now tared and will send the net weight (excluding the basket) to the Cents Employee App.
