Page 27: Trimming And Calibration
5. Turn all load cell potentiometers (individual and section) in the junction box clockwise until a clicking noise is heard while turning. This eliminates any initial resistance so all signals are at full strength. Individual signal trimming may now be done. © Rice Lake Weighing Systems ● All Rights Reserved... - Page 28 SURVIVOR Advantage Series IM-Axle Scale Side 1 The first objective is to adjust individual load cells along each side of the scale for equal signal output when equal weight is put on those cells. For convenience, that side of the scale will be referred to as Side 1. The trimming weight used is the load of the certified test weights.
