The next soft key is 

About

. The About menu shows an assortment of information about 

your Dillon instrument. This can be handy for maintaining calibration, troubleshooting 
or determining if the firmware can be upgraded. Press this and access the following soft 
key set (refer to Figure 3):

Device

Points

Press this key to display the calibration loading points.

O.Load

Lists the number of overloads that have occurred since the unit was 
manufactured.

Zero

Lists the current zero point compared to the calibration zero point. If 
the zero point has moved significantly, this may indicate a serious 
overload has occurred and the instrument should be returned for 
service.

5.3 Setup>Test

The Test functions can help service technicians remotely diagnose your Dillon 
instrument by showing information on key internal functions. Typically these menus will 
have significance only to trained technicians . You may look at these menus without 
technical guidance, but the information may have little meaning, or an error may be 
reported that may not exist.

Press this key to access several items described below (refer to Figure 

5.1

):

Batt

Press this key to perform a battery test. This shows the battery level in A-
D counts and approximate voltage. Voltage is not calibrated.

A-D

Press this key to test the A-D section of the EDjr. You need to apply force 
to change the counts and test the unit. The A-D is the electronics portion 
that converts analog load cell signal to digital numbers.

Disp.

Press this key to perform a display test. Stop the test by pressing the 

ESC

 

key.

Sometimes the individual soft keys are referred to as the F1, F2, F3 and F4 keys as 
numbered from left to right.

Dillon suggests that calibration data be recorded and saved.
