CALIBRATION MENU
The calibration method described herein should be implemented using sample bulks and/or a product
pre-weighed on a sample scale.
Always perform zero point calibration before calibrating the full scale.
During calibration the display shows the weight alternating with the word CAL.
WARNING: If the unit is switched off without exiting the set-up menu, the set-up is not saved.
NOTE: If the system shows logical errors after calibration, ensure that the weighed structure is completely
free of mechanical constraints.
ZERO POINT CALIBRATION
ZERO
This step should be performed when the scale is empty (including the fixed tare) and weight is stable.
System zero is calibrated by pressing the 0 key.
The displayed weight is zeroed and the display shows CAL alternating with 0. This step can be repe-
ated several times.
FULL-SCALE CALIBRATION
TARE
Place the sample weight on the scale before performing this step and wait for stabilization; the display
shows a weight value.
Press the TARE key to adjust the displayed weight. The display shows 0. Enter the real value of the
weight placed on the scale using the numeric keys. Press the PRG key to adjust weight. The display
shows CAL alternating with the real weight value entered.
Full-Scale calibration can always be repeated.
Press and hold the PRG key to return to the CaL Ibr menu.
LINEARIZATION PROCEDURE
FUN
Up to 5 linearization points can be saved on the positive scale. The progressive number of the linearized
points is shown on the display as a flashing value (alternating with weight).
The linearization procedure can be discontinued and then resumed; the linearized points are not cle-
ared when the function is restarted.
Press the
CLR
key for 2 seconds to clear all the linearization points.
The linearization points can be entered at random (not necessarily from the lowest to the highest weight).
Press the TARE key to set the value of the loaded and stabilized sample weight. Upon confirming the
value by pressing the PRG key, the system automatically shifts to the next point.
The process ends automatically when the fifth linearization point is set. Less than 5 points can be saved.
Press the exit key
to end the procedure.
