Appendix
Calibration - Old Style
This section applies to earlier models of the SGSM.
The transducer on the SGSM should be calibrated periodically to ensure
accurate readings. The calibration is performed with a dead-weight set.
1. Remove the transducer from the SGSM and place it on one of the slotted
weights.
2. Make sure the SGSM is connected to the computer and that the software
is running.
3.
Select “Calibrate SGSM” from the “Utilities” menu.
4. You will be prompted to take a reading with no weight on the transducer.
Simply click the “Accept” button.
5. You will now be prompted to add weight to the transducer. Place the
appropriate weight on the transducer and click the “Accept” button.
The first time the unit is calibrated, the software will not tell you what
weights to use. The correct weights are: 0g, 100g, 200g, and 400g.
6.
Continue adding weight according to the prompts and click “Accept” every
time.
7. When the calibration is complete, click the “Save” button.
8. Reinstall the transducer onto the SGSM.
