CALIBRATION NUMBER

The “CAL” number is adjusted to make scale read proper weight for different

load cells and to make accuracy adjustments on a scale system. Systems

should be checked with known weights and adjusted if necessary to insure

accuracy. Both setup and calibration numbers are changed to convert a scale

from lbs to kgs.

Calibrating Scale For Maximum Accuracy

Note:

To accurately calibrate scale, you need a large amount of weight that

has a known value. For best results you should have at least as much weight

as largest load you plan to weigh.

Calibration Numbers

1. Press to Zero-Balance.
