3.7.1 Calibration
Adventurer Pro balances offer a choice of five calibration methods: Internal Calibration (InCAL
TM
),
Span Calibration, Linearity Calibration, Calibration Test
TM
and Calibration Adjust.
•
InCal InCal
InCal InCal
InCal
TM
- For models equipped with Internal calibration (InCAL
TM
), calibration of the
balance is accomplished by an internal mass.
•
SpanSpan
SpanSpan
Span - Span calibration ensures that the balance reads correctly within
specifications using two weight values: zero and a weight value between
25% and 100% of the balance’s capacity.
•
LinearityLinearity
LinearityLinearity
Linearity - Linearity calibration minimizes deviation between actual and displayed
weights within the balance’s weighing range. Three weight values are
used: zero, a weight value at midpoint of the balance's weighing range,
and a weight value at or near the balance’s specified capacity.
•
Cal Test Cal Test
Cal Test Cal Test
Cal Test - Calibration test allows the stored calibration data to be tested against the
current mass being used for the test.
•
Cal Adj Cal Adj
Cal Adj Cal Adj
Cal Adj - For models equipped with InCal
TM
, allows adjustment of the internal
calibration.
Notes: Calibration may be locked out to prevent unauthorized personnel from changing calibration.
if calibration has been locked out, you can only access Cal Test on InCal
TM
models.
Before beginning calibration, have masses available. Masses required for calibration are
listed in the table in section 3.7. 2. Default Span Calibration Points are shown in Bold
print.
