CALIBRATION
8.1. Calibration Mode
The balance has the following modes.
 Calibration using the internal mass (One-touch calibration, only for the FZ-i / FZ-iWP / FZ-GD series)
 Calibration using an external weight
 Calibration test using an external weight (Calibration test does not perform calibration.)
Terms
The following terms are defined as follows:
External weight = A weight that you have. Referred to as a calibration weight when used for
calibration.
Calibration weight = A weight used for calibration
Target weight = An external weight used for calibration test
Caution
 Calibration adjusts the balance for accurate weighing.
Besides periodic calibration and before each use, perform calibration when:
• The balance is installed for the first time.
• The balance has been moved.
• The ambient environment has changed.
 Do not allow vibration or drafts to affect the balance during calibration.
 To output the GLP / GMP compliant using the RS-232C serial interface, set “GLP output
( info )” of “Data output ( dout )”. For details, refer to “10. FUNCTION TABLE”.
 Calibration test is available only when “GLP output ( info )” of “Data output ( dout )” is set to “1” or “2”.
 When calibrating, use the accessory breeze break. (All models of the FZ-i series, FZ-i WP series
and FZ-GD series, and the 120/200/300 of the FX-i series, FX-i WP series and FX-GD series
(including the 500 for the the FX-i series))
Caution on using an external weight
 The accuracy of an external weight will influence the accuracy of weighing. Select an
appropriate weight as listed below:
