zero-point. Move away any weight on the scale. Press 

TARE 

button to confirm, 

or press 

ON/OFF/ZERO

 to exit this mode.  

6.

 

When ‘

CAL.P1

’ is displayed, the scale will be calibrated on second calibration 

point. The default standard weight is 50%FS, and at the same, you can press 

ON/OFF/ZERO

 to exit the calibration mode. Or load 12.5%-100%FS weight, 

and use 

PRINT/HOLD 

 and

 

 UNIT 

 keys to input the loaded weight. If the input 

data is larger than 199999, it will show as “Hxxx” and “Lxxx”. If the triangular 
symbol on the left bottom of LCD window appears, it means that the digit being 
changed is the displayed most significant bit which can only be 0/blank or 1. Press 

TARE key to confirm your setting and the indicator will flash the input standard 

weight. Wait till the scale comes steady, and input A/D data as per the standard 
weight.  

     The indicator will automatically go to next step, if the second point can be 

calibrated correctly. If there’s an error occurred, the scale will display “CAL. Er” 
and return back to step 5 for re-calibration. 

7.  When ‘

CAL.P2’

 is displayed, the scale will be calibrated on third calibration 

point. When xxxxxx kg (or lb) is displayed (100% FS is default), you can press 

ON/OFF/ZERO

 to exit the calibration mode or Place a standard weight (must 

be in the range of 25%-100% FS, and equal or larger than that for the second 
calibration point; this is also the range of your input number) on the scale. Use 

PRINT/HOLD and

 UNIT

 key to input the standard weight’s value. Use

 TARE 

key to confirm the standard weight and input number are correct. If the 
calibration weight for third point is same with that for second point and the 
calibration weight is more than 25%FS, input the standard calibration weight 
same as second point calibration and press 

TARE

 key to confirm the setting. The 

indicator will flash the input weight. If the indicator get reasonable data (the input 
weight is correct, and the calibration weight of third calibration is more than 
equal to the calibration weight of second calibration), it will go to next step 
automatically. If there’s an error occurred, the scale will display “CAL. Er” and 
return back to step 5 for re-calibration. 

8.

 

When ‘

CAL.P0

’ is shown again, that means the scale will calibrate scale’s 

zero-point again. Now, you can press 

ON/OFF/ZERO

 to exit the calibration 

mode; or Move away any weight on the scale, press 

TARE 

key to confirm; the 

displayed data will blink. If the indicator gets reasonable data, it will calculate and 

store all parameters in EEPROM. And then it will auto-reset and display all 
segments of LCD, full capacity… like power on again. If there’s an error occurred 
in calibration, the scale will display “

CAL.Er

” and try to repeat from step5. The 

scale will return to normal weighing mode.

. DISPLAY ADC CODE OR INPUT WORKING VOLTAGE VALUE  

 

1.

 

In normal weighing mode, press and hold down 

ON/OFF/ZERO

 and 

HOLD/PRINT

 key more than 3s, until ‘

codE

’ is shown, this means you have been 

in display inner code mode; but first, the indicator will show the firmware version 
“xx.xx.xx”. In this mode, you can examine the inner working voltage, the stability 
of weighing system, the variety value of A/D data as per the loaded weight.

 

 

   NOTE:  

1)

 

The increment of A/D code for FS weight must be larger or equal to 2 times 
of selected display division-n; otherwise, the calibration cannot be properly 
completed. Eg. The display division is 0.1kg. Load 100kg standard weight 
on the platform, the increment of A/D code is at least 2x 100kg/0.1kg= 
2x1000=2000. In this case, the scale can be calibrated. Otherwise, smaller 
division needs to be chosen.  

2)

 

The data should be stable; otherwise, the calibration cannot properly 
complete.  

2.

 

In this mode, you can calculate the proper ADC data at zero point by examining 
the A/D data for loaded weight. If the ADC increase for full capacity is NFS, the 
power-on zero range is set to Zp% FS (P12 setting) and zero key range is set to 
Zk% FS (P13 setting). Then proper ADC data of zero point is larger than (Zp%+ 
Zk%) x NFS.  

   ADC increase for full capacity (N

FS

) can be making out by: Load the weight W on 

the platform, and the ADC increase for W weight is Nw. The ADC increase for 
full capacity W

FS

 is (N

FS

)= (Nw)x (W

FS

)/W 

.  

 

Negative value may be displayed because of error connect of loadcell or error 
position of the zero-point potentiometer on PCB; however, the software only 
deals with positive value. So, is you are the position of zero-point potentiometer
