4.2 Testing the Balance
The amount of offset with respect to the reference weight can be checked. This is called “span test.”
Performing a span test will not calibrate the balance.
Use a weight for calibration that weighs 50% of the weighing capacity or heavier. To calibrate more
accurately, use a weight that is equivalent to the weighing capacity.
Please contact us if you wish inquire about or place an order for calibration weights.

The error is displayed. The display first indicates “dIFF” and then the weight error

A weight error is as follows:
Weight error = True value – Current weight
When a weight error is more than “0”, the displayed weight is
less than the actual weight.
Press any key to return to normal display.
