Measuring
Adapting to the transducer
MGCplus A0534-30.0 HBM: public 139
7.3.1.2 Calibrating the characteristic curve of the transducer
Transferring the signals supplied by the transducer at a defined
loading
Example: A calibration weight of 4 kg is used to calibrate a 10 kg load cell.
Information
If the zero point and nominal (rated) value are not changed (for example in a
recalibration), you can skip steps 1-10.
