4.4  Calibration Weighing Point ‚Internal A’ 
Calibration using weights, mV/V or load cell data can be done using the VNC program. During calibration, the 
instrument must be set to gross weight display (reset tare, if necessary).  
For a ’legal-for-trade’ application, set the mode under 
[Weighingpoint]-[Calib]- [Param] to [W&M] before 
starting calibration; see Chapter 
4.4.13.1. Select [New] to go to the maximum capacity [Max] 
(see chapter 4.4.3), select the scale interval and determine the dead load. Now calibrate the maximum capacity 
by applying a calibration weight, in mV/V or with load cell data. After determining the test value, the menu 
can be closed as described in Chapter 4.4.12, in order to save the new settings. Calibration data can be 
protected by the CAL switch (see Chapter 4.1.1), which must be sealed in the closed (write-protected) position 
for ‘legal-for-trade’ applications.  
4.4.1  Displaying Calibration Data 
When the CAL switch is closed, the following message is displayed; only 
data display possible with [Param]: 
 
With [View], the calibration data can be displayed, but not changed.

The calibration data and parameters (press [Param]) are displayed in the format entered/determined during 
calibration. 
*  After input with mV/V, the maximum capacity and the mV/V value entered are displayed. 
 
4.4.1.1  Increased Resolution (10-Fold) 
In the  -[Weighingpoint]-[Calib] menu, the weight is displayed with 10-fold resolution (also with the CAL 
switch closed) when you press the key 
, and marked as an invalid weight with 
 
above the weight unit. 
After 5 s, the display returns to normal resolution.  
You can press the key 
 
to return to normal display immediately.
