Carrying a Product Dynamic Calibration Out 

Before processing a new PLU, the operation of DYNAMIC CALIBRATION needs 
to be carried out. It is a learning process through which the machine compensates 
the  lack  of  accuracy  inherent  in  the  mechanic  detection  system  of  the  item  in 
motion. 
 
To carry a dynamic calibration of a product out, follow the procedure below: 
 
Access the “ARCHIVES” menu 
Access the “PLU” menu 
Select  the  product  object  of  dynamic  calibration.  If  the  product  has  not  been 
created yet, create the product as in the previous item. 
Press “CALIBRATION DYNAMIC”. 
Enter the product actual weight and confirm pressing ENTER 
Now  the  instrument  starts  the  conveying  system  and  shows  a  red  writing  in  the 
path  area  meaning  the  number  of  detections  to  go  to  go  through  with  the 
operation. 
Let  the  product  pass  the  needed  times.  If  once  while  passing  by  the  product 
cannot be weighed, the number of detections to go does not decrement. 
At the end of the operation, the dynamic calibration value is stored in the selected 
PLU and opening the “CTRL” parameters under item “CALIBRATION DYNAMIC”. 
 
The procedure can be deleted anytime tapping “STOP. CALIBRAT.”. 
 
In the moment of dynamic calibration, the parameters which variation interval can 
limit the validity of the dynamic calibration value are stored in the PLU. 
In particular, NOMINAL WEIGHT and TEMPERATURE are stored. 
 
At the beginning of a process, the machine carries a check out to make sure the 
current  value  of  said  parameters  is  between  the  validity  interval  of  dynamic 
calibration. If it is not, the PLU process is prevented and the dynamic calibration 
procedure is required again. 
For new PLUs the dynamic calibration procedure is always required. 
 
Note: it is also possible to execute again the dynamic calibration procedure on a 
PLU  already  processed,  with  a  bound  process;  the  process  is  updated  with  the 
new value of dynamic calibration. In this case, as it is not possible to access the 
PLU,  the  new  dynamic  calibration  value  can  be  read  only  accessing  the  area 
“MODIFY DATA” from the process page.
