METTLER TOLEDO WILDCAT Scale Technical Manual
(12/00) 3-10
Calibration
When the WILDCAT scale is used in legal-for-trade commercial applications, it must be
calibrated with certified test weights to the capacity and increment size shown on the
data plate. The capacity and increment size is selectable in the programming mode in
sub-block F1.2. Calibration is also completed in sub-block F1.2.
Gravity Adjustment
The WILDCAT scale terminal has built in compensation to allow factory calibration with
destination correction capabilities to compensate for variances caused by gravitational
forces. If the WILDCAT scale is subjected to a different gravitational force at its
destination location, this can be compensated for electronically by adjusting the geo
value. The GEO value has 32 settings. The GEO value for any world location can be
found in the GEO value table in Appendix 4 as long as the geographical coordinates
and elevation above sea level are known. This value is programmed in the Scale block
when prompted for [GEO xx].
