Increasing- Load Test (Phase 2)
After completing the Shift Test, you must complete the Increasing Load
Test using 4, 5 and 6 kilograms of weight.
NOTE
The upper limit of the scale is configurable accor
ding to POS interface type and may not neces-
sarily be set at 15 kilograms, which is the standar
d setting. For this test, continue to place
weights in 1 kilogram increments only to the upper weight limit set for your scale.
1. Place 4 kilograms in the center of the weighing surface and check
that the Remote 
Display reads between 3.998 kg and 4.002 kg.
2. Place an additional 1 kilogram in the center of the weighing sur-
face and check that the display reads between 4.998 kg and 5.002
kg.
3. Place an additional 1 kilogram in the center of the weighing sur-
face and check that the display reads between 5.998 kg and 6.005
kg.
4. Increase the weight on the center of the weighing surface to 7.50
kg
and check that the display reads between 7.495 and 7.505 kg.
5. Remove the weights and verify that the display reads 0.000 kg.

Shift Test (Metric — 5 Kilograms)
The Shift Test checks to ensure that items placed anywhere on the weigh-
ing surface of the scanner/scale ar
e weighed properly. Refer to Figure 6-3
when performing this test.
1. Place and remove, in succession, a 5.0 kilogram load on the cen-
ter of each of the four quadrants: 2, 3, 4, and 5, and in the center
(1)
of the scanner/scale’s weighing platform (see
Figure 6-3). Ver-
ify that the Remote Display shows a reading of between 4.995
and 5.005 kg
for each quadrant/center test. Check that the dis-
play returns to 0.000 between each load.
2. After verifying the accuracy of each quadrant and the center of
the
weighing surface, remove all weight from the scale. This com-
pletes the Shift Test (Metric — 5 Kilograms).
