5.0 CALIBRATION
Calibration of the scale is possible only by using a standard mass which is equal or
near to the maximum capacity of the scale. If metric units (i.e. Grams or Kilograms)
are selected, the value of the calibration mass required is the maximum capacity of
the scale in Kilograms. If imperial units (i.e. Pounds, Ounces or Pounds & Ounces)
are selected, the value of the calibration mass required is in Pounds as shown in the
following table:
Maximum Scale
Capacity in kg
Calibration
Mass (kg)
Calibration
Mass (lb)
1.5 1.5 3
3 3 5
6 6 10
15 15 30
30 30 60
The software includes checks to prevent the calibration from being performed if there
is no weight or a grossly incorrect weight on the scale or it is overloaded.
Procedure:
• Press and hold the [Cal] key (display shows ). After 3
seconds the display will change to
. Release the key. If the
[Cal] key is released within 3 seconds, the calibration request
will be ignored and the scale will return to normal weighing.
• Ensure there is no weight on the scale then press the [Cal] key
again. The display will show “
”. Release the key.
