Ronan X96S WEIGH SCALE - Manual (Page 47)

43
High Calibrate
PROCEDURE (Option 1)
Passing or collecting a known amount of material through the scale and manually entering the L.F.
value(Loading Factor)). Initially (if you are first commissioning the gauge) you should start off the L.F.
value with the active detector length (in feet). You will want to make sure you run at least a 30 minute load
through the scale to get an accurate calibration. This is achieved by first zeroing the totalizer. Next, you
pass the known amount of weight past the Ronan X96S weigh scale. You then calculate the new L.F. (Load
Factor) by comparing the measured weight to the actual weight. You enter the new calculated value into the
X96S microprocessor. You should run two to three more test loads and make sure the Ronan Weigh Scale
is within the accuracy of the scale. (See original quote to determine the accuracy of your scale to your
application).
Zero the totalizer
Using the Ronan local display or HART communicator find the Main Menu;
Scroll down until you reach and highlight Reset Totalizer.
Access Reset Totalizer by pressing the right arrow key.
Press the F4 key (OK) to the prompt ‘WARNING – This will reset the Totalizer’.
Press the F4 key (OK) to the prompt ‘Totalizer Cleared’.
Pass a known amount of process through the Ronan X96S Weigh Scale
Access the totalizer by pressing the Status Display key (Top Right blue key with the mark >>> ) The line
with ‘Total Weight 0.00000’ is the totalizer. If this option is not enabled you can return to the Main Menu
and select ‘Status Display’ to assign one of the status display lines as Totalizer.
After you have passed a known amount of process through the scale, wait until the totalizer stops
accumulating weight. Record this value (measured). Record the actual weight passed through the weight.
