GAIN 

Function:

Sets (returns) input amplifier gain

Summary:

Sets (returns) the input amplifier gain. This is used to compensate for different
load cell impedances, and re-scaling of device input gain. Valid gains are 1, 2,
4, 8, 16, 32 and 64. Factory default is 64.

Example:

GAIN 32

5.1.6

SPS 

Function:

Sets (returns) ADC sample rate

Summary:

Sets (returns) the currently selected number of ADC samples/second.
Remember! Accuracy increases with fewer samples/second, so always choose
the slowest rate your application can tolerate. Valid samples rates/second are:
7.5, 15, 30, 60, 120, 240, 480, 960, 1920, 3840. Factory default is 120

5.1.7

CAL 

Function:

Sets (returns) calibration type

Summary:

Sets or returns the currently selected calibration type. Acceptable values are:

1. m for milliVolt calibration

2. 2 for 2 point calibration

Example:

CAL m

← (sets mV calibration mode)
