The Scout has two methods of calibration: Span and Linearity. Following is a quick guide on how to
perform a Span calibration. Span calibration uses two calibration points: zero and a specified calibration
weight (usually full scale capacity).

b) Clear any obstructions around the pan; make sure the transportation lock under the pan and the
security switch under the unit are unlocked
c) The unit is on for at least 5 minutes to warm up and stabilize
d) The unit is level
e) The location is stable: avoid vibrations, drafts, electromagnetic fields and extreme temperatures
