FINE TUNING THE CALIBRATION NUMBER
FOR GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT METHOD WHEN
ONLY ONE CHANNEL PER TRUCK OR TRAILER IS USED
Figure 4-A: Calibration G.V.W. - One Channel Used
To properly calibrate a V600 system, all channels used need to be calibrated. Adjusting the Cal
Number or Cal Weight adjusts the system sensitivity as compared to a certified platform scale. The
Cal Number is a reference number that is used to help the user keep track of the system calibration.
The
Cal Weight Menu
displays the full weight for a particular channel and is used to aid the user in
properly adjusting the system calibration. This feature however,
can not
be used in all applications
because of certain system configurations. At least
500 lb
of weight must be applied to the specific
channel before the
Cal Weight
function is operable. Listed is a calibration procedure for the Gross
Vehicle Weight Method.
Note:
Each channel in use must be properly calibrated (Ex: A, B, C, and D).
If additional assistance is needed to fine tune your scale system, please follow the instructions shown
in Section 7.3 “ Assistance in Fine Tuning Your Scale System.”
