Check Zero Weight
You should check the zero weight
regularly as part of the daily operating
routine. ALWAYS check zero weight if the
machine has been left idle for some time
and has cooled down.
The lifting procedure is different for
Dynamic and Static weighing modes. Note
the weighing mode set on the channel you
have selected and follow the appropriate
procedure below.
1.
Ensure that the bucket is completely
empty. Crowd (roll) the bucket right back
as far as it will go.
2.a
Dynamic weighing mode
: Lift the bucket
through the reference position. Two beeps
will be heard. The display will show a
value.
2.b
Static weighing mode
: Lift the bucket up
to the reference position and stop. A
single beep will be heard. If you lift too
high, the display will show 4 dashes (fig.
6). If so, lower the bucket back down to
the reference position.
3.
If the display reads within ±0.02t, or 20
kgs, or 40lbs (fig. 7 depending on the
display units selected, this is within the
repeatability of the Weighlog system and
can be accepted without zeroing the
weight. Simply continue loading as
normal.
4.
If the display reads more than ±0.02t, or
20 kgs, or 40lbs (fig. 8), then you should
zero the weight (see 3.4).
