Calibration Instructions for the Type 

Approval Version of the SJ series

 

When is to Calibration Required? 

Calibration may be required when the SJ series initially installed or if the scale is moved a 
substantial distance. 

 

Calibration using a Calibration Weight 

1.  Entering calibration mode.

 

 

Remove the calibration switch cover at the bottom of the device 
and press the calibration switch while the device is in the 
Weighing Mode. 
Then 

 Cal  

  will be displayed. 

 

2. Zero 

calibration

 

 

Press the [RE-ZERO] key to calibrate zero. 

 Cal0 

 will be displayed. 

 

Wait for the Stable Indicator to be displayed then press the [RE-ZERO] key.   

 Calf 

  will be displayed after a few seconds.    Press the [BLIND]* key to perform only a 

Zero Calibration.    The scale will then automatically return to the Weighing Mode. 

3. Span 

calibration

 

 When 

 Calf 

 is displayed, place the weight at the center of the platform.  Wait for the 

Stable Indicator to be displayed, then press the [RE-ZERO] key.    The display will show   

 end 

  and the scale will automatically return to the Weighing Mode. 

See “SPECIFICATIONS” about the calibration weight. 

 

Calibration by Gravity Compensation 

If the acceleration of gravity at your location is not 9.798 m/s

2

 and you do not have 

calibration weights, the scale can be calibrated by compensating for the acceleration of 
gravity.    (Refer to “The Value of Gravity at Various Locations”.) 

1.  Setting a new acceleration value.

 

 When 

 Cal  

  is displayed, press the [BLIND]* key and 

 9.798 

  will be displayed. Press 

the [RE-ZERO] key to increment the blinking digit and press the [BLIND]* key to move the 
blinking digit. 

2.  Storing the value in the memory.

 

 

While pressing the [BLIND]* key, press and hold the [RE-ZERO] key and release the 
[BLIND]* key.    Then the display will show 

 end 

  and return to 

 Cal  

.    Turn the scale 

off to finish the procedure. 

Remarks*: The [BLIND] key can be activated by pressing the area between the [ON/OFF] and 

[RE-ZERO] keys.
