Tare Weight Database

LabSuite may be set up to keep a list of sample container IDs and weights. You can use this feature avoid weighing:

Instead of weighing your containers every time they're used, you can enter their weight and ID (any label that can uniquely identify the container) into the program's container weight database. When you use an ID'd container for a test, record the container's ID as part of your testing information and enter the ID into LabSuite instead of the container weight.

To set up the container list, select Options > Container List.

To add a new container to the list:

Click on the first blank row in the list and enter the container ID and container weight.

To remove a container from the list:

Click in either the Container ID or Weight columns of the row you want to delete then click on the Delete button.

After you're through entering your container weights, close the dialog then select Options > Program Setup, click on Data Entry in the Setup dialog's left-hand navigation panel, then select Tare ID in the Container weights are entered as box.
