2. By placing a wet finger on the pins at the
bottom of the instrument (you can short out the
pins) and see if the instrument responds. If not,
it could be faulty
1. There is very little that can go wrong in the
with two loadcells. There is an electric
current flowing through each loadcell.
When an animal stands on the scale
there is a resistance change in the
loadcell; this change is in the range of
millivolts. So if there is any damage to the cable, plugs or loadbar
the instrument is reading that damage and displaying an in-correct
mass.
2.
To eliminate any fault that could be caused by the installation
of the platform/crate; first remove the loadbars and place on a
level concrete slab. Workshop floor is a good place. Now place a
wooden plank on the two loadbars so that when you climb onto
the scale they do not rock. See picture….
