twice to exit set-up menu.

All other settings (setpoints, hysteresis, calibration ...) are
expressed in weight value. If you want to convert them to the
new unit of measurement, perform one of the following
procedures for changing the system calibration.

The parameter must remain set to 1.0000.

Theoretical Calibration For Other Units Of Measure

Set in the parameter the F.SCALE value divided by the conversion coefficient

from kg to the new unit of measure.

Example: The 4 load cells of 1000 kg are placed under a scale for oil, which
has a specific gravity of 0.916 kg / l. Setting the F.SCALE = (4x1000) / 0916 =
4367, the system works in liters of oil. If you set the unit to liters, the system
will display and print the symbol ‘l’ instead of ‘kg’. See Section 2.1.6 “Setting
Units of Measure” on page 17.

Weight (Span) Calibration For Other Units Of Measure

Load a known quantity of product liters on the scale (equal to at least 50% of the

maximum amount that you must weigh) and enter in the parameter UEI GHt, the

product loaded value in liters. If you set the units to liters, the system will

display and print the symbol ‘l’ instead of ‘kg’. See Section 2.1.6 “Setting Units

of Measure” on page 17.
