Electrical Check
Procedures Step 1. Check to see that there is power to the controller.
• If there is power to the controller The front panel display
should be lit.
Step 2. Allow the controller to warm up for about 15 minutes before
performing the calibration procedures.
Load Check Step 1. Place a load (weight) on the scale or feeder.
Step 2. Check to see if the weight reading changes on the display in
the proper direction. (e.g. if the display reads 100 pounds and
a 20 pound load is placed on the vessel or scale, the display
should read 120 or some value over 100. If it reads 80 pounds
the reading is going in the wrong direction and indicates some
problem with the system)
