Step 7.

Remove the calibration weight and
recheck that the zero reading is still 4 ma
(0.4 V). Adjust the FINE control if neces-
sary.

Step 8.

Place the calibration weight back on the
scale and recheck that the calibration read-
ing is still correct. Adjust the SPAN con-
trol if necessary.

Step 9.

Repeat steps 7 & 8 until no further adjust-
ment is necessary to keep both measure-
ments within the system tolerances.

Step 10.

Calibration is complete.

Trouble Shooting
Procedures

This section is intended to provide assistance in solv-
ing minor system problems.

Malfunction: No
Output

Checks to be made:

1.

Check voltage at + & - loop connections. You
should get a reading of 15 VDC to 50 VDC.

2.

Verify load cell connections.

3.

Using an Oscilloscope, verify that you have a
pulsed 5 VDC between terminals labeled - & +
excitation.

Malfunction: No
Change in Input

Checks to be made:

1.

Load Cell signal output below original setting. If
the signal level returned by the Load Cells is
below the previous deadload setting, measure
approximately 2.3 ma between the loop + & - ter-
minals.

2.

Load Cell signal output above original setting. If
the signal level returned by the load cell is above
the previous Span setting, measure approxi-
mately 23 ma between the loop + & - terminals.

Malfunction:
Output Drifts

Checks to be made:

1.

Verify load cell connections.

2.

Verify Power Supply output and confirm that it is
outputting a constant voltage.
