1. This unit was properly calibrated at the factory to match the load cells that were supplied with it If you are going to recalibrate note the following Recalibration can not be done until the Recalibration flag is turned ON The proper sequence of keystrokes is given below BE SURE the load cell plug is plugged into the side of the controller BE SURE the weigh bin is hanging from the load cells freely BE SURE the air line to the dump valve is connected as it would be during normal operation A disconnected air line adds weight Air pressure to the line is not necessary BE SURE there is nothing touching the weigh bin or air line BE SURE the bin is EMPTY when ZEROING the load cells ZERO WT must be done before FULL WT Since changes in ZERO WT will also shift the FULL WT scale by the same amount it may not be necessary to go any farther than this When SETTING FULL WEIGHT BE SURE you know the exact weight in GRAMS that you are adding to the bin Place this weight in the bin and then press the FULL WT key Five dashes FU UL will be displayed Enter the EXACT weight in GRAMS that you have placed in the bin The weight should be close to the designed full bin weight 400 1000 2000 4000 9000 or 18000 The example below uses 2000 When done their is no need to turn the Calibration Flag off The next time power is turned off th
