8.Calibration

8.1.Calibration Group

Calibration

Automatic self calibration (Calibration due to changes in temperature)

Calibration using the internal mass (One-touch calibration)

Calibration using an external weight that you have

Calibration test

Calibration test using the internal mass

Calibration test using target mass that you have

Correction of the internal mass value

Correction of the internal mass value

Caution

Do not allow vibration or drafts to affect the balance during calibration. Calibration test does not perform calibration.

To output the data for GLP using the RS-232C interface, set "GLP output (info)" of "Data output (dout)". Refer to "10. Function Table". Time and date can be added to GLP report. If the time or date is not correct, adjust them. Refer to "10.7 Clock and Calendar Function".

Calibration test is available only when "GLP output (info)" of "Data output (dout)" is set . The calibration and calibration test data can be stored in memory. To store them, set "Data memory (data)". Refer to "12. Data Memory" for details.

Caution on using an external weight

The accuracy of an external weight can influence the accuracy of weighing. Select a mass for calibration and calibration test from the following table.

The calibration mass in bold type: factory setting

The calibration mass value can be adjusted within the range above.

Display

This indicator means "In process of measuring calibration data".

Do not allow vibration or drafts to affect the balance while the indicator is displayed.

About the internal mass

The internal mass may change due to corrosion or other damage caused by the operating environment, or due to aging. Check the internal mass periodically and correct the internal mass value if necessary.
