Setup And Calibration - Cardinal 204 Operation Manual

Your 204 indicator has been thoroughly tested and calibrated before being shipped to you. If
you receive the indicator attached to a scale, calibration is not necessary. If the indicator is
being connected to a scale for the first time or recalibration is necessary for other reasons,
proceed as indicated.
Calibration of the 204 indicator is accomplished
entirely by the keypad. To enter the setup and
calibration mode:
1. With the power off, remove the Calibration
Access Screw on the upper left corner of the
rear panel, see Figure No.8.
2. With the screw removed, insert a small non-
metallic tool into the screw hole and press the
calibration switch.
3. Press the ON/OFF key.
4. The display will show FLASH. The indicator is
now ready for setup and calibration.
During the setup and calibration process it will be necessary to enter operational parameters
via the 204's keyboard. Pressing the PRINT key will cause the data entered or displayed to
be retained and the 204 will advance to the next prompt. The cursor location is identified by
the blinking character and can be advanced to the left to the next position by pressing the
ASTERISK key. Pressing the UNITS key will change the blinking character to the next
value.
