Page 12: Calibration
Calibration The indicator converts an input voltage from a load cell to a "mass" value and displays it. Calibration is the adjustment function so that the scale (indicator) can weigh correctly. 5.1. Items of the Calibration Mode There are four items in the calibration mode. How to enter the calibration mode: In the weighing mode, press the CAL key which is located behind the CAL cover at the lower right of the front panel. -
