CALIBRATION
Calibration
Your scale has been properly calibrated at the factory and should not require any further
adjustments. The following procedure should be performed only to correct any error in
calibration. Calibration is protected by a security code to avoid inadvertent access. For
maximum accuracy, calibration must be done in grams. If you only have certified weights in
pounds, convert them to grams (i.e. 10 pounds = 4536 grams).
Scale Calibration
1. Press the ON/ZERO button on the console and wait for the display to show "0.0".
2. Place an accurately known "sure" weight (3,000 to 5,000 grams. recommended) on
the platform. If the display reads other than the known weight value by +/- 1 gram,
then the scale is out of calibration.
IMPORTANT NOTE: A "sure" weight is a weight that has been accurately calibrated
and its license is traceable to NBS weights & measures. Weight room free weights are
not normally suitable to use as check weights as they may vary from their stated value.
3. Remove weight from platform. The calibration security code must be entered before
attempting to calibrate the scale. Hold the MENU button down and press RECALL
button. Release both buttons. "Set-0" will be displayed and the "0" will be flashing.
4. Press the
button repeatedly until "Set-2" appears. Press the ENTER button.
5. Use the
and
advance to the next digit. After entering the third digit, press ENTER and the scale will
return to normal weighing mode. The security code needs to be entered only once,
unless the scale is powered off. Access to calibration is denied if the proper code is not
entered.
6. With the known weight on the scale, press REWEIGH. Quickly, before WeightLock
activates, hold the MENU button down and press RECALL button. Release both
buttons. "Set-0" will be displayed and the "0" will be flashing.
7. Press the
button repeatedly until "Set-6" appears. Press the ENTER button.
8. A weight value will display representing the current calculation of the known weight.
The hundreds of pounds digit will be flashing. Use the
proper value. Press ENTER to advance to the next digit. After entering the tenths of
pounds digit, press ENTER and "-CAL-" will display while the scale calibrates itself.
9. The readout will then quickly show the old weight, then re-weigh to show the
new calibration weight.
10.Remove weight and press the ON/ZERO button. Wait for "0.0" to display and verify
calibration by placing the same known weight back on the platform.
