5.20 Using AC-Adapter
The optional AC-DTMX AC Adapter can be
used as an alternative to batteries. Plug one
end of the adapter into an appropriate AC
outlet and the other end into the receptacle
located on the side of the DTMB.
NOTES:
1. When using the AC Adapter,
do not remove the batteries as they are used
to save the data in memory when the power is turned off.
2. If the units of measure were changed while the AC Adapter was in use, the
units of measure will revert back to the one’s selected prior to the change.

7.00 CALIBRATION
The DTMB is factory calibrated by taking a series of measurements with
known weight standards suspended from Factory Calibration Standard
Materials. The built-in microprocessor uses this calibration data with a complex
formula to calculate a calibration curve which takes into account the material
thickness and orientation of use. The factory calibration works well in most
cases. However, if the process material to be measured differs significantly
from the Factory Calibration Standard Materials (see table below) or if the
application requires the highest accuracy possible, perform a Field Calibration
Adjustment (refer to Section 7.20) or return the gauge to the factory for an
optional Special Calibration.
Note: When ordering a Special Calibration, please supply a 10' sample of the
process material for calibration purposes.
