• Factory defaults will be loaded for the stored setup, zero and calibration
values, then the raw ADC counts will be displayed as described above.
• This mode can be exited at any time by pressing the [Cal] key, at
which point, since the zero and calibration values have been defaulted,
the scale will automatically enter a calibration routine as described
above. A calibration procedure must then be carried out to ensure
reading accuracy. It is therefore vital that a standard calibration mass is
available for this purpose.
• A successful calibration at this point will return the scale to normal
weighing mode, but any errors will be unrecoverable, and the scale
must be switched off and back on again to allow the calibration to be
completed. Normal weighing will not be possible until a successful
calibration has been performed after loading the default values.
9.0 ERROR MESSAGES
During the operation the software will attempt to ensure that the results obtained are
sensible. Potential error messages and their possible causes are detailed in the
following table:
At power-up
A/D counts more than 10% of scale range below the default no-load value.
A/D counts more than 10% of scale range above the default no-load value.
Taring
Taring could not be performed because the readings were not stable.
No-load Calibration
A/D counts more than 10% of scale range below the current no-load value.
A/D counts more than 10% of scale range above the current no-load value.
No-load value could not be determined because the readings were not
stable.
Full-load Calibration
A/D counts more than 10% of scale range below the stored full-load value.
A/D counts more than 10% of scale range above the stored full-load value.
Full-load value could not be determined because the readings were not
stable.
Weighing
!
Weight is more than 0.03% above the maximum range.
!
Result exceeds the range of display.
