The five other digits represent the load weight readout
Calibration / Setup Procedures Concept
The
ED2 Series
SkidWeigh systems calibration/setup procedures are very simple. There is no input of the
complicated codes as found on the majority of forklift / loader on-board weighing systems on the market;
but the simple procedure that utilize two buttons and few steps to complete the
automatic calibration.
Automatic calibration of the empty forks/ bucket being lifted and than automatic calibration of the
known load weight being lifted is all what is required.
Note
: At any point if you make a mistake, for whatever reason, turn the power to the system OFF / ON and
start all over. All final calibration and set-up values will be automatically stored after the calibration/setup
procedures are finished
. If power to the ED2 Series is disconnected information will NOT BE LOST.
•
The
ED2 Series
system has to be calibrated with a known load weight
•
Use the customer’s floor scale or find a known load weight within the operating facility
•
Keep that known load weight nearby to complete the calibration
•
For best results, use at least 30% to 50 % known load weights of the particular lift truck’s lifting
capacity
.
