3.8 Weight calibration
Since the Earth's gravity is not the same everywhere, each balance
must be adjusted to compensate for the gravity at each location, in
accordance with the underlying physical weighing principle. This
adjustment process, which is known as "calibration", must be carried
out on initial installation and then each time the instrument is moved
to another location. However, in order to get exact measurements, the
instrument should also be recalibrated periodically.
The calibration is set in the configuration menu (see chapter 5.3.5
"Balance calibration").
With the aid of the "Intelligent Calibration Mode" (ICM), the
instrument can determine the size of the calibration weight itself,
facilitating exact calibration with different size weights (in 10 g
increments) (see chapter 8.3.1 "Balance calibration").
3.9 Firmware and serial number
After a reconnection of the balance to the mains and switching on for
the first time the serial number as well as the firmware will be showed
in the upper display
.
NOTE
The moisture analyser must be calibrated when it is initially
installed and then each time it is moved to another location.
If you work in accordance with "Good Laboratory Practice GLP",
observe the prescribed intervals between calibrations (adjustments).
