Weight (Span) Calibration (With Test Weights)
After having performed the Tare Weight Zero Setting, this function allows correct calibration to be done using test weights of
known value and, if necessary, any deviations of the indicated value from the known value will be corrected.
Load the test weight onto the scale using as high a percentage of the maximum quantity to be weighed as possible. Otherwise
make sure that the instrument measures a corresponding mV signal.
The PC sends the following ASCII string containing the calibration command:
$aasxxxxxxckckCR
in which
:
Possible instrument responses:
• Correct reception:
&aaxxxxxxt\ckckCR
• Incorrect reception or full scale equal to zero:
&&aa?\ckckCR
For correct calibration, the read value must be equal to test weight.
Example:
Calibration for instrument with address 1 and test weight of 20000 kg:
query:
$01s02000070(Cr)
response:
&01020000t\77(Cr)
For correct calibration the read value will be 020000.
Keypad Lock (Access Protection To The Instrument)
The PC transmits:
$aaKEYckckCR
$01KEY56CR
Possible instrument responses:
• Correct reception:
&&aa!\ckckCR
• Incorrect reception:
&&aa?\ckckCR
Keypad Unlock
The PC transmits:
$aaFREckckCR
$01FRE50CR
Possible instrument responses:
• Correct reception:
&&aa!\ckckCR
• Incorrect reception:
&&aa?\ckckCR
Display And Keypad Lock
The PC transmits:
$aaKDISckckCR
$01KDIS14CR
Possible instrument responses:
• Correct reception:
&&aa!\ckckCR
• Incorrect reception:
&&aa?\ckckCR
