Calibration
57
5. Up to five linearization points can be calibrated between the zero and span calibration values. Use the
following commands to set and calibrate a single linearization point:
SC.WLIN.V1=
nnnnn
<CR>
SC.WLIN.C1<CR>
The SC.WLIN.V1#
n
command sets the test weight value (
nnnnn
) for linearization point 1. The
SC.WLIN.C1#
n
command calibrates the point. Repeat using the SC.WLIN.V
x
and SC.WLIN.C
x
commands as required for additional linearization points.
6. To remove an offset value, clear all weight from the scale, including hooks or chains used to hang test
weights, and send the SC.REZERO#
n
command. The indicator displays
CALIBRATING
while the zero and
span calibrations are adjusted.
7. Send the SC.KUPARROW#
n
or the SC.KEXIT#
n
EDP command to return to normal mode.

To calibrate the indicator using Revolution, the indicator EDP port must be connected to a PC running the
Revolution configuration utility.
1. Place the indicator in config mode (display reads
SCALE
, —
see

weight from the scale platform.
2. From Revolution, select
File » New
. The
Select Indicator
dialog box appears.
3. Select

6. From the
Tools
menu, select
Calibration Wizard
.
7. Click
NEXT
to begin the Calibration Wizard.
8. Select whether you want to perform a standard calibration or a standard with multi-point linearization and
click
NEXT
.
9. In the text box, enter the test weight value to be used for span calibration.
10. Select the check box if you are using chains or hooks during the calibration, and click
NEXT.
11. Remove all weight from the scale and click
Click to Calibrate Zero
to begin zero calibration. If your test
weights require hooks or chains, place them on the scale for zero calibration.
12. When zero calibration is complete, the Calibration Wizard prompts you to place test weights on the scale.
Place the test weights on the scale and click
Click to Calibrate Span
.
13. If you chose to perform linear calibration, the Calibration Wizard now displays prompts (1–5). Enter the
weight value for Linear Point #1, place test weights on scale, and click
GO
. Repeat for additional
linearization points and click
NEXT
.
14. The new and old calibration settings are displayed. To accept the new values, click
Finish
. To exit and
restore the old values, click
Cancel
.
