2.1.5 Zero Value Manual Entry
Perform this procedure only if it is not possible to zero off the scale structure, for example because it contains
product that can not be unloaded.
Enter the estimated structured dead load value that would be zeroed.

2.1.6 Weight (Span) Calibration (With Test Weights)
After performing the theoretical calibration (
) and the Zero setting (
), this
function allows calibration to be done using test weights of known value. If adjustment is required, change the displayed value
to display the test weight value.
1. Load the test weight onto the scale, use as high of a percentage of the maximum quantity to be weighed as possible.
2. Press and hold
, then press .
is displayed.
3. Press

is displayed.
4. Press or until
is displayed.
5. Press
. The value of the weight currently on the system will be flashing on the display. All of the LEDs are off. (If
adjustment is not required, skip to step 8.)
6. Adjust the value on display to match weight loaded on the scale if necessary, by pressing or . The LEDs will
begin scrolling.
7. Press
, the new set weight is displayed with all the LEDs flashing.
8. Press
,
will be displayed again.
9. Press twice to exit set-up menu.
Example:
For a system of maximum capacity of 1000 kg and 1 kg division, two test weights are available, one 500 kg and one 300 kg.
Load both weights onto the system and correct the indicated weight to 800. Now remove the 300 kg weight, the system must
show 500; remove the 500 kg weight, too; the system must read zero. If this does not happen, it means that there is a
mechanical problem affecting the system linearity.
Identify and correct any mechanical problems before repeating the procedure.
If theoretical full scale and recalculated full scale in Weight (Span) Calibration are equal, it means that the theoretical
calibration is currently in use; otherwise, the Weight (Span) Calibration based on test weights is in use.
If the correction made changes the previous full scale for more than 20%, all the parameters with settable weight
values are reset to default values.
Linearization Option On Max 5 Points:
It is possible to perform a linearization of the weight by performing the Weight (Span) Calibration (With Test Weights) with up to
a maximum of five points, using five different test weights. The procedure ends by pressing or after entering the fifth value.
At this point it will no longer be possible to change the calibration value; a new Weight (Span) Calibration would need to be
performed. To perform a new calibration, return to the weight display and then re-enter the calibration menu.
By pressing after having confirmed the test weight that has been set, the full scale displays the value of the maximum test
weight entered and references the cell sensitivity set in the theoretical calibration (
).
