Calibration - Health O Meter 500KL User Instructions

CALIBRATION

This scale has been factory calibrated, and does not require calibration prior to use.
If required, the scale can be calibrated. Calibration of your scale is performed using kilograms
(KG) or pounds (LB), according to the units of measure used upon entering into the calibration
path. When calibrating in pounds, a total of 500 lbs is required (or 300 lbs for newer models),
applied in increments of 100 lb, 200 lb, 300 lb and 500 lb. If calibrating in kilograms, a total of
200 kg is required (or 120 kg for new models), applied in increments of 40 kg, 80 kg, 120 kg and
200 kg.
Note: Only weights certified and traceable to national standards are to be used for
calibration procedures.
*For scales with date codes higher than 1515, only 300 lb (120kg) of weights are required
for calibration. Refer to the white label on the back of the display head to determine your
scale's date code.
Example: Date Code 4215, calibration procedure is complete after 300 lb (120 kg).
Pressing and holding the LB/KG and ZERO buttons at the same time,
press the ON/OFF button to turn on the scale. Release all three buttons
when "CAL" appears on the display. Numbers will appear indicating that
you can begin calibration.
When calibration numbers stabilize, press the ZERO button. "C-100" (for
LB mode) or "C-40" (for KG mode) will flash on the display, followed by "0"
or "1".
Place 100 lbs or 40 kg on the scale. Numbers will appear on the display.
When calibration numbers stabilize, press the ZERO button. "C-200" (for
LB mode) or "C-80" (for KG mode) will appear on the display, followed by
"0" or "1".
Place an additional 100 lbs or 40 kg on the scale, for a total of 200 lbs or
80 kg. Numbers will appear on the display. When calibration numbers
stabilize, press the ZERO button. "C-300" (for LB mode) or "C-120" (for KG
mode) will appear on the display, followed by "0" or "1".
Place an additional 100 lbs or 40 kg on the scale, for a total of 300 lbs or
120 kg. Numbers will appear on the display. When calibration numbers
stabilize, press the ZERO button. *For models with date codes higher than
1515 the calibration procedure is now complete and "END" will appear on
the display. For models with date codes lower than 1515, "C-500" (for LB
mode) or "C-200" (for KG mode) will appear on the display, followed by "0"
or "1".
Place an additional 200 lbs or 80 kg on the scale, for a total of 500 lbs or
200 kg. Numbers will appear on the displaly. When calibration numbers
stabilize, press the ZERO button. "END" will appear on the display,
followed by "OFF". The scale will automatically shut off.
