- HOBART World Scale
World Scale 
Getting Started  2-6   
Mechanical 
Procedures 
You will need to familiarize yourself with the following 
Mechanical Procedures in your World Scale: 
♦  Short PRESS/Long PRESS (Beeps) 
♦  Sleep/Wake Modes 
Short PRESS/Long PRESS 
(Beeps) 
The World Scale requires two types of touch when pressing 
certain keys on the Console: 
  Short PRESS = PRESS and release. You 
will hear one beep. 
  Long PRESS = PRESS and hold until you 
hear a second beep. 
Sleep/Wake Modes 
Use Sleep mode when the scale will be 
inactive for an extended period of time. This 
conserves the life of the batteries. 
Note
  If you have a Tare in the scale’s memory and the scale goes into 
Sleep mode, the Tare will be lost. You have the ability to change 
the duration of the sleep timeout in Chapter Four: Supervisor 
Mode. 
To select Sleep mode: 
1.  Long PRESS the Display Test key.
