The vertical "Load Bar" indicates the actual load on the load cell and will be displayed as a
small horizontal line when there is no eye end or grip fitted to the load cell.
Please note that when an eye end and grip is fitted to the load cell, the "Load Bar" will
indicate
a small tensile load (bar above horizontal line) due to the weight of the grips or fixtures. Also
note that the “Load Bar” does not reset to zero when the “ZERO” button is pressed on the Jog
Control Panel. For the CLC-250G load cell there may be a 10% shift on the load bar graph
when nothing is attached to the load cell. This is due to gravity pull on the load cell shaft.
The "Load Bar" changes color to show the actual load relative to the load cell capacity for
both Tension and Compression loads.
The Load Bar is green from zero force to 75% load cell capacity.
The Load Bar is yellow from 75% load cell capacity to 90% load cell capacity.
The Load Bar is red above 90% load cell capacity.
