Preparing the Bed for Calibration
Immediately following the successful completion of the
bed angle calibration procedure, you will be instructed to
clear the bed of all equipment (mattress, lines, etc).
Ideally, the mattress deck should be bare.
IMPORTANT: Do not place the calibration masses on
the bed at this point.

KG units used in this example
You will now be asked to set the calibration weight. This
is the total sum of the certified calibration masses used
to the calibration procedure.
1.
Press ENTER button to begin.
2.
Use the UP/DOWN Arrow buttons to select the
units that correspond to the calibration masses
that will be used.
3.
Press ENTER button to select the appropriate
units. You will automatically be taken to the
calibration weight input screen.
4.
Each time the UP/DOWN Arrow buttons are
pushed, an increase/decrease of 1 LB or 1 KG
(depending upon which unit was just selected)
will register.
5.
After the appropriate calibration mass has been
inputted, press ENTER button to set calibration
weight.
IMPORTANT: Correctly setting the calibration weight
and then using that exact total sum of calibration mass
is essential to ensure the accuracy of the scale. For this
reason, Carroll Hospital Group strongly recommends the
use of certified calibration masses.
