Function 80 Calibrate - Multi-point Linearization
Use function 80 to calibrate the scale using up to 5 calibration points to 'linearize' the
load cell. Set the Scale Operation Parameters before using function 80. Best results are
obtained when the IDS 440 and load cells have reached thermal equilibrium (power
applied for approximately 30 to 120 minutes depending on load cell size). NOTE:
function 80 automatically adjusts parameter 19 (deadload offset).
1. Hold the CLEAR key down and press the ENTER key to enter the configure mode.
2. Enter CFG 80. The IDS 440 prompts "dEAdld". Remove all weight from the scale.
Press the ENTER key to obtain the deadload weight. Press the Units key (↓) to
continue without reading a new deadload weight.
3. The IDS 440 ‘s display alternates between "CAL 1" and the weight on the scale.
Place the first calibration weight on the scale. Enter the calibration weight using the
numeric keypad. Press the ENTER key. The IDS 440 reads the calibration weight.
4. The IDS 440 ‘s display alternates between "CAL 2" and the weight on the scale.
Repeat step 3. The IDS 440 will accept up to 5 calibration points. Press the CLEAR
key to complete calibration if less than 5 calibration points are used.
5. The IDS 440 prompts "CFG 80". Press the CLEAR key to exit the configure mode
• Parameter 79 must be set to 1 to enable the IDS440 to use the multi-point
Linearization calibration parameters.
• Use the UNITS key (↓) to continue to the next calibration point if the current point
has already been calibrated.
