Scale Calibration
The RAM 280-F Frozen Fry Dispenser will
maintain and dispense fries from two hoppers.
Each side has a scale which weighs and
dispenses frozen fries independent of one
another. These scales may require calibration
periodically.
1) Open the cabinet door and remove the
hopper from the dispenser for the side to be
calibrated.
Note:
The accumulator housing(s) should
remain in place on the accumulator doors.
Calibration of the scales is performed using the
operator panel on the front of the Dispenser.
2) Press the Up Arrow
Button until "
U2
" is
displayed then press the Enter
Button. The
display will change to "
[CAL]
" (“
[---]”
metric)
with flashing brackets alternating from left to
right.
3) Select the side to be calibrated by pressing
a Basket Size
Button on the side to be
calibrated. The display will change to "
[ --
" if
the left side’s scale is selected or "
-- ]
" if the
right side’s scale is selected.
4) Place an empty fry basket under the
accumulator doors for the side to be calibrated.
Lift the front of the basket slightly and slide the
basket forward over the window for the basket
sensor. The accumulator doors will open and
close to dispense any contents into the basket
to ensure the Accumulator Housing is empty
before zeroing the scale.
5) The display will change to "
0.0
". The scale
now tares (zeros) itself automatically.
6) After it achieves a stable tare the display will
change to "
1.0
" or “
450
” in metric. Place a 1 lb
(450 g) reference weight on the accumulator
doors for the side to be calibrated. (Note: Four
frozen ¼ lb patties can be used in place of a 1
lb reference weight.)
7) Once the scale stabilizes the display will
change to "
2.0
" or “
900
” in metric. Place a 2 lb
(900 g) reference weight (an additional 1 lb
(450 g)) on the accumulator doors for the side
to be calibrated.
8) After the scale stabilizes the display will
change to "
---
". Remove the reference weight(s)
from the accumulator doors and reinstall the
hopper for the side that was calibrated.
9) Close the cabinet door.
The dispenser will return to normal operation
with no basket size selected for the side that
was calibrated.
10) Repeat for the opposite side’s scale if
required
