7.4. Calibration using a weight
This function adjusts the scale (indicator) for accurate weighing.
Calibration must be done when the SW-D is initially connected to a load cell (base unit)
or the combination is changed.
Calibration may also be required according the changes in the environment.
When the scale (indicator) has been moved.
When the ambient environment has significantly changed.
For regular calibration.
Note: Prepare a weight, preferably a weight with the same value as the weighing
capacity of the scale to be calibrated. Note that the calibration weight value
can be changed.
1. Turn the power ON and warm up the scale for at least half an hour.
Change the function setting “
poff
” or place something on the weighing pan to
disable the auto power-off function.
2. Refer to “7.1. Items of the calibration mode”, to enter
the calibration mode. The indicator displays “
Cal5et
”.
3. Press the UNITS key twice
and display “
Cal
”.
4. Press the TARE key. “
Cal 0
”
is displayed. Confirm
that nothing is placed on the weighing pan and wait for the
STABLE indicator to turn on.
5. Press the TARE key. The scale calibrates the zero
point and displays the value of the calibration weight
(SPAN calibration).
The calibration weight value is equal to the weighing
capacity. (factory setting)
If you want to calibrate only the zero point without
calibrating SPAN, press the ZERO1 key. After
“
end
” is displayed, go to step 9.
6. To calibrate with a weight different from the
weighing capacity, change the displayed value
using the following keys.
UNITS To shift the digit that is blinking
to the right.
PRINT To increase the value of the
blinking digit by one.
Using a weight with the same value as the
weighing capacity is recommended. If other
weights are used, use one with a value greater
than two-thirds of the capacity.
