Tension calibration
errors
Calibration was successful. No Errors found.
Signal read by the amplifier is too large when maximum tension is
applied. This is caused by maximum tension being too large. Reduce
maximum tension.
Signal read by the amplifier is too small. Too little of the load cell range is
being used, thus the gain is greater than 32:1. Use more of the load cell
range or set maximum tension higher.
Roller weight too large. Roller weight exceeds 90% of the load cell rating.
Make roller weight smaller.
Calibration tension is greater than Maximum tension. Make Maximum
tension larger than Calibration tension.
Maximum tension exceeds the load cell rating. Lower wrap angle, make
roll weight smaller or get higher rated load cells.
