4. Make sure all weight is removed from the scale and press the
Cal-Match
softkey to begin the calibration. Cal-
Match calibration can be cancelled by pressing the
CLEAR
key or the
CANCEL
softkey.
Cal-Match will overwrite any previous calibration. You can discard the Cal-Match and revert to the previous
calibration by cycling power to the
iQUBE
2
before pressing Save and Exit.
5. After initializing, the display will show Cal-Match
Point 1.
Place a test weight over first cell or section to be
tested, then press
ENTER
.
It is not necessary to measure the cells in any particular order.
6. Once the iQUBE
2
has read the cell, the 920i display will show Cal-Match
Point 2
.
7. Move the test weight to the next cell or section and press
ENTER
. Repeat until all cells have been measured.
8. When the last cell has been measured, the iQUBE
2
automatically sets the load cell trim factors. Press
TWEAK
or
ENTER
to view trim values.
9. Press
UP
( ) to return to the
SCALES
menu. Press the
Save and Exit
softkey to exit setup mode. To continue
with linearization, see Section 4.1.2.
4.1.2 Advanced Calibration Options
Temporary zero calibration and theoretical calibration are available regardless of the number of load cells con-
nected or the calibration type selected. The calibration options described in this section are optional. Basic calibra-
tion can be performed by following the instructions in Section 4.1.1.
Linearization
Five-point linearization is used to compensate for non-linear scale systems by calibrating the indicator at up to five
additional points between the zero and span calibrations. Linearization is optional; if linearization values have pre-
viously been entered, these values are reset to zero during the zero calibration.
1. Once basic calibration is complete, with
WLIN
displayed, press
ENTER
or
DOWN
to go to the first lineariza-
tion point (
PT-> 1
).
2. Place test weights on the scale and press
ENTER
twice to display the weight value entry prompt.
3. Use the numeric keypad to enter the actual test weight value. Press
ENTER
to accept the value.
4. Enter the
Calibrate
submenu. Use the
CALIBRATE
softkey to begin calibration of the linear point. When com-
plete, the A/D count for the linear calibration is displayed. Press
ENTER
to acknowledge the value.
5. Use the
LEFT
and
RIGHT
keys to enter the next linearization point
PT-> 2
.
6. Repeat for up to five linearization points.
7. To exit the linearization parameters, press
UP
to return to
WLIN
. To perform a rezero, see Section .
Selection
Description
Last
Zero
Recalls the last established zero value to allow calibration without removing test weights or
product from the scale. This must be followed by a span calibration.
Temp
Zero
Temporarily zeroes the displayed weight of a non-empty scale. After span calibration, the
difference between the temp zero and the previously calibrated zero value is used as an off-
set. Requires a previous calibration. This must be followed by a span calibration.
