External Linearization with User-Defined Weights
Setup information
– This function is accessible only if the software and the functionality of the connected
weighing platform permit this operation.
– External linearization when weighing in legal metrology is only possible when the menu
access switch is open.
– The J key must be assigned the “External linearization" function, see “Function Allocation
of the J Key for Linearization and Setting/Deleting the Preload."
–
Activating the display of geographical data has no effect on this function.

Once linearization has been completed, the J key must be reallocated back to its original
function in the Setup menu, e.g. external calibration/adjustment with default weights.
Configuration
t Set the linearization weights, see “Entering Adjustment and Linearization Weights."
Procedure
t For scales used in legal metrology, slide the menu access switch to the left
(= “open" position).
y The display goes out and the device restarts. Then weighing mode is active.
t Press ( to unload and zero the scale.
t Press J to start the external linearization.
y The display “L.EXT.U" appears briefly.
y After approx. 2 seconds, the target value for linearization weight 1 is shown as a negative
value on the display (in example shown here, 1.500 kg) .
t Place the required linearization weight 1 on the platform.
t Press J to apply linearization weight 1 or press ( to cancel the linearization function.
y After a short time the difference between the measured value and the true weight of the
sample will be displayed.
