FAD - 4 DIGITAL LOADCELL JUNCTION BOX 02.05.00 FAD4_2RM 2 15 of 20
5 CALIBRATION EXAMPLES
5.1 STANDARD (WEIGHTS)
Assume a scale of 150kg / 50 g with dual interval at 60kg. The scale is constructed with 4x 100kg loadcells
2mV/V at 5 conversion/sec with normal digital filter. The calibration procedure should be as follows :
- Power on the FAD–4 .
- Send scale parameters
STX ADD P 1 2 0 4 0 1 2 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
STX ADD P 2 05 15 06 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
STX ADD P 3 2 0 0 1 1 0 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
STX ADD W BCS2 BCS1 ETX Write to EEPROM
- Wait FAD–4 to power up.
- Empty scale and send command.
STX ADD c 0 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
- Place a test weight (20kg) on CORNER 1 and send command:
STX ADD c 1 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
- Place the same test weight on CORNER 2 and send command:
STX ADD c 2 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
- Place the same test weight on CORNER 3 and send command:
STX ADD c 3 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
- Place the same test weight on CORNER and send command:
STX ADD c 4 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
- Empty scale and send command:
STX ADD a BCS2 BCS1 ETX DEADLOAD CALIBRATION
- Place a calibration weight (100kg) on the center of scale and send command:
STX ADD b 10000 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
Save calibration in EEPROM
STX ADD W BCS2 BCS1 ETX
- End.
