Touch Screen Calibration

We recommend that you occasionally calibrate the screen to avoid making mistakes when 
selecting items.

1.

If you have a scale with a 7” display, insert the screen calibration template as shown in the 
drawing before starting the procedure. The arrows on screen (1) indicate which calibration 
target (2) on the template to press.

2.

3.

Press and hold the flashing circle for a few seconds until it moves to the next position, repeat 
until all nine points are set. 

Note

: While the machine starts up, you also have the option to calibrate the touch screen.
