SECTION 2 - OPERATION<br />

Load Cell Calibration<br />

Displays shown here are in full grams. MB, 100 and 200 series models are in 1/10 grams,<br />

with a decimal.<br />

If your load cells already display a weight close to zero, plus or minus 10 grams, you may skip this section and go<br />

directly to:<br />

TURNING ON OUTPUTS (next page).<br />

If your unit DOES NOT display an acceptable weight, you should recalibrate them, that is reset your ZERO weight,<br />

at this time.<br />

To do so:<br />

BE SURE<br />

BE SURE<br />

the weigh bin is EMPTY.<br />

the load cell plug is plugged into the side of the controller.<br />

the weigh bin is resting on the load cells freely.<br />

the air line to the dump valve is connected as it would be during normal operation. A disconnected<br />

air line adds weight.<br />

The load cells and bin are not jammed in any way. To test for this see that a light touch on the bin<br />

causes the display to change. When the pressure is removed the display must return to exactly<br />

where it was, plus or minus 1 gram.<br />

If this does not happen, something is touching something and the bin is not entirely free to move.<br />

Check EVERYTHING around the bin.<br />

LOAD CELL CALIBRATION:<br />

The sequence of keystrokes is as follows:<br />

Load Cell Zero Calibration Keypad Sequence:<br />

Press<br />

Display will say: (PASSWORD)<br />

Press Display will say: (P x)<br />

Press<br />

Display will say: (CAL OFF)<br />

Press<br />

Display will say: (CAL WSB)<br />

Press * again for LIW CAL (later versions)<br />

Press Display will say: (P x)<br />

Press Display will say: (-- WAIT --)<br />

Followed by: (P 0)<br />

Press Display will say: ( x)<br />

The ZERO point of the load cells is now set properly. FULL weight calibration may also be done at this time,<br />

however, it probably is NOT NECESSARY. When load cell readings shift due to rough handling, the entire range<br />

of readings from ZERO to FULL shift together. The ZERO weight calibration routine resets the full range of the<br />

cells and, therefore, corrects FULL weight readings as well. For information on FULL weight calibration, see<br />

RECALIBRATION OF LOAD CELLS.<br />
