CALIBRATION
This scale has been factory calibrated, and does not require calibration prior to
use. There are no requirements for calibration in the field; users should adhere to their
institution's calibration policies. If required, the scale can be calibrated. Calibration of
your scale is performed using 80 kilograms (KG) or 200 pounds (LB), according to the
units of measure used upon entering into the calibration path.
®
If Everlock
is engaged the scale can only be calibrated in the locked unit of measure.
Note: Only weights certified and traceable to national standards should be used
for calibration procedures.
1. Press and hold the lb./kg and ZERO buttons at the same time, and press and release
the ON button to turn on the scale. Remain pressing the lb./kg and ZERO buttons until
"CAL" appears on the display. Release all buttons. Note: The display will show "CAL"
until the button combination is released.
2. Once the buttons are released the following message will appear : "– 2Ero SCALE – ".
With no weight on the platform, press the ZERO button.
3. The scale will zero and the following message will appear: "- PLACE 200 ON SCALE
PrESS ON–" (if in pounds) or "– PLACE 80 ON SCALE PrESS ON– " (if in KG). You
may toggle between pounds and kilograms using the lb./kg button. If Everlock
engaged you will only be able to calibrate in the locked weight measurement unit.
4. Once the proper weight is placed on the platform, press the ON button. The message "–
CAL –" will flash on the screen while the scale is calibrating.
a. If the weight is within calibration range, a four digit number will display on
the screen. Remove the weight from the scale and the scale will restart.
Note: the 4 digit calibration count will stay until the weight is removed.
B. If the weight placed on the scale does not match the correct calibration
standard (200 lb or 80 kg), the following message will be displayed: "– Out OF
RANGE –". Calibration is not performed. Press ZERO button to exit the
calibration mode. The scale will restart and go through the power up sequence to
show 0.0. Power off the scale and begin the calibration process again.
