Poor Linearity
Usually a mechanical
problem
Electronic Problems
Re-check repeatability
*Inspection of the flexures for damage
or loose hardware may be required
*Use the Linearity Function in the
service menu to reset linearity
*A problem in the analogue circuit board
or power supplies can cause poor
linearity. Make sure all mechanical
problems have been eliminated first
OTHER PROBLEMS:
Cannot calibrate
Zero shifted more
than allowed
Calibration timeout
*Check all flexures for damage
*Reset dealer calibration
*Verify linearity and repeatability
*The balance may be unstable. Verify
stability as above.
Calibration weight
motor does not stop
*Check the cables to the motor, try
plugging the balance into the power
again
*Look for friction in the calibration
weight movement
*Check the opto-coupler that controls
the motor position.
