4.4 More About Calibration
The following topics provide additional information
about compensating for environmental factors
(
Section 4.4.1) and diagnostic information for
determining expected zero and span coefficients.
4.4.1 Adjusting Final Calibration
Calibration may be affected by environmental factors
including wind, vibration, and angular loading. For
example, if the scale is calibrated with 1000 lb, a
strain test may determine that at 2000 lb the
calibration is 3 lb high. In this case, final calibration
can be adjusted by tweaking WVAL to 998.5 lb. This
adjustment provides a linear correction of 1.5 lb per
1000 lb.
To adjust the final calibration, return to the WVAL
prompt and press TARE(En ter ) to show the test weight
value. Press
or to adjust calibration up or down.
Press Calibrate softkey to save the value, then press to
return to the CALIBR menu.
