CALIBRATION EXAMPLES
5.1 STANDARD
(WEIGHTS)
Assume a scale of 150kg / 50 g with dual interval at 60kg. The scale is constructed with 4x 100kg loadcells
2mV/V at 5 conversion/sec with normal digital filter. The calibration procedure should be as follows :
-
Power on the FAD–4 .
-
Send scale parameters
STX ADD P 1 2 0 4 0 1 2 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
STX ADD P 2
05 15 06 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
STX ADD P 3 2 0 0 1 1 0 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
STX ADD W
BCS2
BCS1
ETX
Write to EEPROM
-
Wait FAD–4 to power up.
-
Empty scale and send command.
STX ADD c 0
BCS2 BCS1 ETX
-
Place a test weight (20kg) on CORNER 1 and send command:
STX ADD c 1
BCS2 BCS1 ETX
-
Place the same test weight on CORNER 2 and send command:
STX ADD c 2 BCS2 BCS1 ETX
-
Place the same test weight on CORNER 3 and send command:
STX ADD c 3
BCS2 BCS1 ETX
-
Place the same test weight on CORNER and send command:
STX ADD c 4
BCS2 BCS1 ETX
-
Empty scale and send command:
STX ADD a

CALIBRATION
-
Place a calibration weight (100kg) on the center of scale and send command:
STX ADD b

Save calibration in EEPROM
STX ADD W BCS2 BCS1 ETX
- End.
