5.9 Adjustment
As the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at every location on earth,
each balance must be coordinated - in compliance with the underlying physical
weighing principle - to the existing acceleration due to gravity at its place of location
(only if the balance has not already been adjusted to the location in the factory). This
adjustment process must be carried out for the first commissioning, after each
change of location as well as in case of fluctuating environment temperature. To
receive accurate measuring values it is also recommended to adjust the balance
periodically in weighing operation.
With an adjustment weight, the weighing accuracy can be checked and re-adjusted
at any time.
Procedure when adjusting:
Observe stable environmental conditions. Stabilisation requires a certain warm-up
time.
Start balance by
Press
and hold for approx. 5 sec until “--------“,
followed by “
CAL
“ briefly appears on the screen.
Afterwards an internal value will be shown.

Press
briefly and the size for the adjusting weight
(See chap. 1, Specifications) will be displayed on the
screen.

Now set the adjusting weight in the centre of the weighing
plate.
“--------“ will be shortly displayed, followed by “F“.
