4.2.2 Zero Calibration
The scale performs zero calibration with one calibration point. The zero-calibration point is established with no
weight on the scale. You can use this calibration method to adjust for a different static load without affecting the
span or linearity calibration.
Calibration Procedures:
1. Long press the Menu button until you see mM.E.N.U.
2. Release the button and wait for the display to show C.A.L.
3. Press the Yes button. And you can see the display shows ZErO.
4. Press the Yes button. The display shows --C--, and then -DonE- when the Zero calibration is finished. The
display shows SPAN.
NOTE: If zero calibration fails or if after 40 seconds the calibration is still not successful, CAL E is
displayed for 3 seconds and the previous calibration data will be restored.
5. Press the Exit button to exit.
4.2.3 Span Calibration
The scale performs span calibration with one calibration point. It is established with a calibration mass placed
on the scale.
NOTE:Span calibration should be performed after zero calibration.
Calibration Procedures:
1. Long press the Menu button until you see mM.E.N.U.
2. Release the button and wait for the display to show C.A.L. Press the Yes button.
3. Short press the No button to navigate until you see SPAN.Press the Yes button.
4. The calibration point and the unit flashes on the display based on the scale capacity and unit set in the
menu. (e.g. 030.000 kg) If you do not need to change the calibration point, skip to step 6.
5. To change the calibration point:
a) Short press the No button several times until the desired number appears.
b) Short press the Yes button to accept the number and move on to the next digit.
c) Repeat the process until all the digits are correct.
d) Press the Yes button to accept calibration point. It is flashing on the display.
6. Place a calibration mass of the specified weight on the platform and press the Yes button.
7. The display shows --C--, and then -DonE- when the calibration is finished.
8. Then the display shows LIN. Press the Exit button to exit.

NOTE:
•If the scale does not perform the calibration successfully, CAL E is displayed for 3 seconds and the
previous calibration data is restored.
•After waiting for 40 seconds, if the scale still fails to perform the calibration, CAL E is displayed for 3
seconds, and the previous calibration data is restored.
4.2.4 Linearity Calibration
The scale performs linearity calibration with 3 calibration points. The full calibration point is established with an
item (Refer to Table 4-1 for the exact weight value of the item) on the platform. The mid calibration point is
established with a weight equal to half of the full calibration weight on the platform. The zero calibration point is
established with no weight on the platform. The full calibration and mid calibration points can be altered during
the calibration procedure.
Calibration Procedures:
1. Long press the Menu button until you see mM.E.N.U.
2. Release the button and wait for the display to show C.A.L. Press the Yes button.
3. Short press the No button several times to navigate until you see LIN.
4. Press the Yes button, then the display shows --C--.
5. Then the first calibration point and the unit will flash on the display based on the scale capacity and unit
you set in the setup menu. (For example, 015.000 kg). If you do not need to change the calibration point,
skip to step 7.
6. Change the calibration point:
a) Short press the No button several times until the desired number appears.
NOTE: press the Back button can decrease the digit.
b) Short press the Yes button to accept the number and move on to the next digit.
c) Repeat the process until all the digits are correct.
d) Press the Yes button to accept calibration point. It flashes on the display.
7. Place a calibration mass of the specified weight on the platform and press the Yes button. The display
shows --C--.
8. The second calibration point and the unit will flash on the display based on the capacity and unit you set in
the setup menu. (For example, 030.000 kg)
NOTE: After waiting for 40s, if the scale still fails to perform the calibration, CAL E is displayed for 3
seconds and the previous calibration data is restored.
9. Steps 6 and 7.
10. The display shows --C--, and then -DonE- when the Linearity calibration is finished.
11. After that the display shows GEO. Press the Exit button to exit.
4.2.5 GEO Code Adjustment
Geographical Adjustment Factor (GEO) code is used to adjust the calibration based on the current location.
Settings from 0 to 31 are available with 12 being the default. Refer to 8.3 Table of GEO Code Values to
determine the GEO factor that corresponds to the terminal's location.
Set the GEO factor:
1. Long press the Menu button until you see mM.E.N.U.
2. Release the button and wait for the display to show C.A.L. Press the Yes button.
3. Short press the No button several times to navigate until you see GEO.Press the Yes button.
4. The GEO point flashes on the display (For example, 12).
5. Short press the No button several times until the desired GEO number appears. Press the Yes button to
confirm.
NOTE: Press the Back button can decrease the digit.
6. Then the display shows END.
7. Press the Exit button to exit.
