ZERO COUNT ADJUSTMENT (Dual slope model)
• Why should I adjust ZERO count?
Situations in which ZERO count need to get adjusted
o Load cell damaged because of over load; beyond scale’s capacity.
o Main board has been replaced.
o Because of rough handling of scale, the ZERO count move out of range.
o Load cell has been replaced.
o / message displays on the display.

• How to quick check ZERO Count?
Please refer to Calibration procedure on P.17
*Only Non-Approved models need to adjust Zero Count. Approved Models don’t need any such
adjustment.
Range Chart: ZERO count must be within the range (6000~12000), if it’s out of this range it
need to be adjusted.

When ZERO count is out of range, there can be two possibilities:
1. ZERO count value is below the lower limit i.e. 2000
2. ZERO Count value is above the upper limit i.e. 9000.
Please adjust R1/R2 on the main board, to bring the ZERO count value in the range limit.
