8.6. Optional Linearisation of the Scale Curve
The standard scale calibration may be supplemented by a linearisation with up to 5 correction points. Hereby
the correction points have to be in a stricly increasing order, which is:
Min. capacity < Point 1 < Point 2 < Point 3< Point 4 < Point 5 < Max. capacity of the scale
Important: Before any linearisation you have to define the basic setup (see chapter 8.1), the scale parameters
(see chapter 8.3 respective 8.4) and you have to calibrate the scale (see chapter 8.5). If you have to configure
a multi scale system, then select the wished scale no. ("1" or "2") within the weight display (Fig. 7.1).
1. Open the window “nWweigh Settings“
2. Open the register “Linearisation“
3. Correction point 1: A calibration weight will be
put on the centre of the scale. The true applied
weight as a multiple of the scale interval e has
to be entered. Then you use the slider to correct
the display value until it equals the calibration
weight
4. Define correction point 2, if applicable (this is
done like correction point 1 but uses a higher
weight)
5. Define further correction points, if applicable
6. For saving the calibration data click the button
“Save calibration data”. Now a warning appears
which describes the consequences in legal for
trade applications. (“Attention! After saving
the calibration data, the internal calibration
counter (TAC) is still counted forward.
Afterwards the scale has to be re-approved
by the Calibration Authority!”)
7. For confirming the saving click the button
“Save”.

Hint: After the linearisation you have to close the window FlintWeigh II Settings by clicking the button “X“ (upper
right window corner). In multi scale applications you may select and correct the second scale now.
