4.CALIBRATION

Calibration Error 2
Initial dead load exceeds the zero adjustable range of the F159. Check if the cell
is loaded with any extra object.
If the Calibration Error 2 persists while the system is loaded correctly, Zero
calibration must be performed again after inserting a resistor between +EXC and
–SIG terminals of the load cell for shifting zero point. The relation between input
signal shift and resistor values are summarized in the table below.
・The values contained in the table assume single 350Ω load cell configuration.
・Temperature coefficient of the resistor directly affect reading accuracy. Use
resistor with temperature coefficient better than 50ppm/ ℃ (5ppm/ ℃ class
recommended)
