Recalibrating the
Monitor To improve the monitor’s calibration accuracy, you can add or eliminate a
calibration load and recalibrate the monitor at any time. If you have not
achieved satisfactory calibration results after entering 4 to 5 calibration
loads something is wrong. Refer to the Troubleshooting Section instead of
adding more actual weights.
Periodic Checks
for Accuracy Throughout the season you should occasionally check the monitor for
calibration accuracy by weighing a monitor load of cotton. If you find the
monitor is not accurate, enter that actual weight into the monitor and
calibrate the monitor again.
It is recommended you verify the calibration when you observe a change in
lint density or seed mass for example; when changing seed varieties or
continuing harvest after a heavy rain.
If a difference is found, you would want to create a new Cal Set, otherwise
previous data will be affected.
