Preparing the Scanner/Scale for Calibration

Calibrating the Scale

4-4
1. Assure that the scanner/scale is stable, secure and properly installed.
(Refer to
Chapter 2, Site Preparation and Installation
tions on the proper installation of the scanner/scale).
2. Power-up the scanner/scale.
3. Allow the unit to reach temperature equilibrium for at least one
hour. If the scanner/scale is already at room temperature, allow at
least 15 minutes for acclimatization.
4. Before performing the calibration, the scanner/scale must be pre-
stressed with a weight of more than 15kg. With power turned on,
place the entire weight set (including the case) on the weighing sur-
face of the scale. The display should show an underscore and three
hyphens
5. Remove all weight from the weighing surface and ensure that there
are no obstructions in the debris chutes of the scanner/scale. See
.

1. Before proceeding, ensure that the scanner/scale has been prepared
for this process by performing the preceding steps titled,
the Scanner/Scale for Calibration
2. Remove the weigh platter and make sure that there are no obstruc-
tions in the debris chutes.
3. Cut and remove the seal that secures the calibration switch access
cover as shown in
the initial installation of the scanner/scale.
