CAP ZERO (Resetting the Capacity Sensor)
If the scale is turned on and the weight is not reading zero, or after placing the weight, the weight reading is not correct even after
performing a Full calibration, then the Capacity Sensor in the scale needs to be reset.
1.
Press MENU button (#5) ---- setup menu screen will appear
2.
Scroll to PLATFORM SETUPS and press ENTER.
3.
In the
Platform Setups
Menu, scroll to CAP ZERO and press ENTER.
4.
You will see the following message: “This will reset the capacity sensor. Remove all weight
from the scale and press [ENTER]
to continue”.
5.
Make sure there is no weight on the platform and press ENTER.
6.
Once CAP ZERO procedure is complete, go back to the main screen and check to see if the weight is reading correctly.
SAW CORRECTION (Advanced Operation Only)
It is NOT recommended to perform this operation unless advised by a scale technician. The SAW Correction operation corrects the
sensor’s slope in case it was adversely affected due to abrupt environmental change. To perform this operation correctly and
effectively, the scale needs to be in a completely vibration-free and noise-free environment. Due to these stringent requirements,
the operation may fail 50% of the time.
1.
Please follow the following steps to perform SAW Correction:
2.
Plug-in the scale, wait at least 10 min to let the scale warm-up.
3.
If the weight screen is not showing, press ON/OFF button on the indicator --- the weight screen will appear.
4.
Press MENU button (#5) ---- setup menu screen will appear
5.
Highlight PLATFORM SETUPS option (use the arrow buttons on the panel) and press ENTER button --- the Platform Setups
screen will appear.
6.
Highlight SAW CORRECTION line and press ENTER button.
7.
A prompt will appear asking you, “
Would you like to perform a C1 parameter correction? Press [ENTER] to continue.
”
Press
the ENTER button to proceed.
8.
A prompt will appear telling you to “
Remove all weights from the scale and press [ENTER] to continue
.”
9.
Make sure there are no weights on the platform, then press the ENTER button again on this screen ----
the “Processing…”
screen will appear. After sometime, the screen will turn back to Platform Setups.
10.
Press MENU button several times until reading screen will appear.
11.
Scale is ready to operate.
12.
If a timeout occurs during this procedure, please unplug the scale and repeat calibration from the start.
QUICK CAP ZERO (Advanced Operation Only)
You can perform a quick SAW Correction within 3 button presses without going through the entire process listed above. To do this,
follow the proceeding steps.
1.
Press SHIFT (ON/OFF key) + ZERO. A prompt will appear asking you to remove all weights on the platform.
2.
Make sure there are no weights on the platform, then press the ENTER button again on this screen ----
the “
Processing
” screen
will appear. After that, just wait until the process completes. If a failure happens, remove the power cord from the outlet and
then plug it in again. Then try the calibration process again.
That’s it. You don’t need to do anything else. Place a known weight on the platform to check if everything is reading okay.
If at any time you received an error while performing this calibration, you must do a hard reboot of the scale (unplug the power
adapter out and then plug it into the outlet again) to retry the calibration.
