CALIBRATION
23
NOTE: Note down the average frequency reading (fast/slow lift) with the empty bucket.
This figure is required to calculate the threshold value for the Load Alarm on the
TOTAL channel (ref. 6.2.6).
11.
Dynamic weighing mode
: Lift the bucket AT NORMAL SPEED through the
reference position. The display will show a value.
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. If
so, lower the bucket back down to the reference position.
Press or the REMOTE ENTER BUTTON to zero the weight.
(ii)
Set Cal. Factor (with a Test Load)
This continues from section 6.2.4 (i)
12.
The screen briefly displays “
LoAd
” and then the current cal factor (default =
“
1.000
”).
13.
Fill the bucket with a typical load, the weight of which is already known from a
weighbridge or portable weigh scales.
NOTE: If you are loading bags of known weight, ensure they are evenly distributed in
the bucket (or on the pallet). (Also see note 1 - page 18)
14.
Programme the known weight (section 6.1) and press to confirm.
The screen then displays “
LOAd LIFt
”.
15. Dynamic weighing mode
: Lift the bucket AT NORMAL SPEED through the
reference position. The display will show a value.
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. If
so, lower the bucket back down to the reference position.
Press or the REMOTE ENTER BUTTON to enter the weight.
The instrument then displays “
dONE
” before displaying the weighing mode for
that channel. The calibration factor is automatically calculated and stored in
memory.
When “
tons
” units is selected, the test load weight is entered in
tons /
tonnes
. A number of 1.000 denotes 1ton/tonne.
When “
kgs
” or “
lbs
” units is selected, the test load weight is entered in kg
or lbs.
A number of 1000 denotes 1000 lbs. For example a test load of 4000 lbs
must be entered as “
4000
”.
