CALIBRATION

When to Calibrate

Calibration may be required when it initially installed or it is moved a substantial distance. Also periodical calibration will be recommended.

Calibration using a Calibration Weight

1. Enter calibration mode.

Calibration switch

Press the [ON/OFF] key to turn the power off. While pressing both the [RE-ZERO] and [UNITS] keys, press the [ON/OFF] key. Cal will be displayed.

Or remove the calibration switch cover on the bottom

Wait for the stable indicator to be displayed and press the [RE-ZERO] key. Calf will be displayed in a few seconds. If the zero calibration only is to be done, press the [UNITS] key. The scale will automatically return to the weighing mode.

3. Span calibration

When Calf is displayed, place the weight at the center of the platform. Wait for the stable indicator to be displayed, then press the [RE-ZERO] key. The display will show end and the scale will automatically return to the weighing mode. See “SPECIFICATIONS” about the calibration weight.

Calibration by Gravity Compensation

The scale is calibrated at 9.798 m/s2 at the factory. If the acceleration of gravity at your location is not same and if you do not have calibration weights, you can calibrate the scale by compensating the acceleration of gravity. (Refer “The Value of Gravity at Various Locations”.)

1. Set a new acceleration value.

When Cal is displayed, press the [UNITS] key and 9798. will be displayed. Press the [RE-ZERO] key to increment the blinking digit and press the [UNITS] key to move the blinking digit.

2. Store the value in memory.

While pressing the [UNITS] key, press and hold the [RE-ZERO] key and release the [UNITS] key. Then the display will show end and return to Cal . Turn the scale off to finish the procedure.
