Once the Dead Weight adjustment is
entered, a “Please Wait…” message is displayed while the
system begins performing an internal self-calibration for zero-offset and full-scale gain for each of
the four analog gain levels. This process will complete within 40 seconds (approx.), at which point
control will return to the main menu.

Calibrate Weight
Select this menu option by pressing the Enter Key while the display appears as shown in Figure 18.

Entry of Calibration Weights generally requires that known, accurate weight(s) be physically placed on
the scale. The purpose is to correlate a unitless value read from the AD7730 to an actual absolute
measurement value. Given there are four transfer curves (one for each analog gain level), there can be
up to four unique Calibration Weight values. For best results, the known calibration weight should
represent a large percentage of the available range for a given gain level WITHOUT exceeding the
maximum weight that the load cell(s) can support.

Procedure
The procedure for navigating the Calibrate Weight submenu follows the control flow diagram depicted
in Figure 19.
