CHAPTER 6: CALIBRATION 6.1 CALIBRATION OVERVIEW The scale is calibrated by following the procedures embedded in F16 (Zero) and F17 (Span) of the Setup Menu. Each procedure enters a value into the scale's non-volatile memory - F16 the zero value (deadweight) and F17 the span value (test weight). The minimum test weight that can be used is 1% of full-scale capacity.
4. After setting the exact value, press the ACCU key to save the value. 5. If the calibration was successful, the display will show "EndC1" momentarily, then revert back up to F17. At this time it is suggested that the calibration values be recorded for future use (see Section 6.4). 6. If the calibration was not successful, one of the error messages below will appear. Take the indicated action to correct the problem, then perform a new calibration.
6.6 KEY-IN SPAN CALIBRATION VALUE (F20) Note: This procedure is intended for emergency use only in the case of non-volatile memory loss. A valid span calibration value, obtained from a successful F17 calibration procedure, must be used. 1. While in the Setup mode, scroll to "F 20", then scroll down once using the ZERO key. 2. The display will momentarily show "CAL 1", followed by a flashing zero. Use the directional keys (shown in Figure 6-1) to adjust the displayed value to the span calibration value. 3.
CHAPTER 7: OPERATION 7.1 DISPLAY The Model 600E indicator utilizes a 6-digit LED (Light Emitting Diode) to display weight and system information. 7.1.1 LIGHT EMITTING DIODE (LED) DISPLAY Figure 7-1 shows the display detail of the 600E LED display. lb ACCU kg PCS STABLE ZERO FIGURE 7-1: 600E LED Display Detail LED Annunciator MEANING ZERO Better known as the “Center of Zero” annunciator, this light is active whenever the displayed weight is within ± 0.25 divisions of true zero.
7.2.1 FUNCTION KEYS lb/kg – This key toggles the indicator between lb and kg units if enabled in the User (“A”) Menu. See Chapter 5 for more information. Zero - This key sets the indicator to display zero and resets the bag accumulator provided the following conditions are met: 1. The displayed weight is within the zero reset range that is programmed in F4 of the Setup (“F”) Menu. 2. The scale is not in motion. 3. The scale is not in overload (see Appendix D for error codes).

B.1.1.1 RECOGNIZED HOST COMMANDS “P” - This command is sent to the indicator to print the indicated display. The indicator will not respond if the scale is in motion, positive overload or negative overload. “Z” - This command is sent to the indicator to zero the scale. The indicator will not respond if the scale is in motion, positive overload or negative overload. The indicator will also not respond if it is not in gross mode or within the zero range specified in F4 of the Setup Menu.
B.1.3 SIMPLEX MODE The Simplex Mode provides a continuous serial transmission mode and is selected by setting A3 to “C” and A6 to “0”. The Continuous mode is used to interface to computers, scoreboards, and other remote devices requiring constant data updating. The transmission occurs at the end of each display update. Figure B-5 shows the serial data format for Continuous Mode. xxxxx.
APPENDIX C: DETERMINING PROPER SPAN GAIN (F2) C.1 SPAN GAIN OVERVIEW The Span Gain parameter found in F2 of the Setup Menu is directly related to the ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) integration time. This means that the lower the setting, the higher the number of measurements per second. A span gain setting of 25 produces about 25 to 30 measurements per second, while a span gain of 200 produces only about 3 or 4 measurements per second.
