Page 21: Calibration
Calibration Calibration The MSI-8000HD is calibrated using standard precision test weights. It is required that the weight used is at least 10% of full capacity in order to achieve rated accuracy. Example: Use at least a 500 kg test weight to calibrate a 5000 kg capacity unit. The MSI-8000HD RF Indicator supports load cell linearization with up to four span points that can be calibrated in any order. -
