Before executing auto-balance ___________________________________
To execute auto-balance ________________________________________
The 8969 Strain Unit can perform auto balance.
When auto balance is performed, the reference output level of the conversion
unit can be matched with the specified zero position.
It is applicable only to a 8969 Strain Unit.
• Turn power on and wait 30 minutes to allow the internal temperature of the
input module to stabilize.
• With the sensor connected to the input module, execute auto-balance under
stable input conditions.
• Auto-balance cannot execute during measurement.
• Key operations are not accepted while auto-balance is executing.
See: Opening the [Each Ch]

See: Opening the Channel settings window
In the following cases, auto-balance should be executed again.
• After changing the vertical axis (strain axis) range
• After an input module has been removed or inserted
• After the strain gauge transducer has been replaced
• After power has been turned off and on
• After performing a system reset
• When ambient temperature has changed significantly (the zero position may
drift)
If "Warning: Auto balance failed." appears:
The channel on which auto-balance failed is displayed.
Verify the following, and execute again:
• Is the sensor in a discharged state? (Make sure that it is not being subject to
vibration, etc.)
• Is the sensor connected correctly?
