CALIBRATION MODE WEIGHT SETTINGS FOR SW1N OR Z SERIES
  1. Make sure the scale is off. Remove the platter assembly (metal and/or plastic platform.)
  2. On the right hand side you will find a hole and a screw at the bottom. This is the sealing screw. Remove the sealing screw and then turn the scale upside down to find the calibration screw and silver plate located on the right side of the bottom of the scale (if keyboard is facing you and you tilt the scale upwards by the front.)
  3. Remove the calibration screw and the silver plate. Under the plate is the calibration switch.
  4. Press and hold the switch while turning the scale on. The display will show “ONE” and then “CAL 1”. Release the calibration switch.
  5. The “TARE” key advances through the cal settings whereas the “UNIT” goes down. The “ZERO” key enters the cal setting.
  6. Press the “UNIT” key twice to go to “CAL 10”. Press the “ZERO” key to enter into the settings.
  7. The display will flash “UNIt” and then a number. 0 is for calibrating in KG and 1 is for calibrating in LBS. Select the unit by using the “UNIT” key. that is being used for calibration and press the “ZERO” key.
  8. When putting in the values you must adhere to the capacity and increment on the serial number plate and match the correct values according to that or else the scale will not be NTEP or “legal for trade” subject to being RED TAGGED and a fine by Weights And Measures.
  9. The display will flash “CAPA” and then show the current capacity. The chart below shows the capacities to be set. Only use the capacity setting that is shown on the front of the scale. The “UNIT” key will increment the flashing digit while the “TARE” key selects the digit that will flash. If 1 was selected for the unit follow the settings listed under 1. If 0 was selected for the unit follow the settings under 0. You cannot make the scale different then what is on the spec plate or else the scale will not be NTEP and subject to a fine and being red tagged by Weights and Measures.

  10. After the capacity is set press the “ZERO” key. The display will flash “ ld” and show the middle up/down weight to be used in calibrating the scale. This can not be set to 0. Later versions a value of 0 can be entered. The value must be between 10% and 90% of the full capacity.
  11. Press the “ZERO” key and the display will flash “u-dP” and display the weight decimal point. Use the W-dP from the above chart for the capacity of the scale. Press the “ZERO” key.
  12. The display will flash “ld” and then show the increment. Use the ld from the above chart for the capacity of the scale. Press the “ZERO” key.
  13. he display will flash “dUAL” and then show a number. 0 disables dual range while 1 enables dual range. Select 0 or 1using the unit key. Press the “ZERO” key.
  14. The scale will flash “tArE” and display a number. The “UNIT” key changes the number. Only 0 or 1 is allowed. 0 allows for full scale tare. Selecting “1” and then pressing the “ZERO” key allows limiting the tare from 0 to full scale. The display will show 5 digits. As an example on a 50LB scale if it is made to be 05000 the scale will only tare up to 4.99.
  15. Press the “ZERO” key and the display will go back to “CAL 10”.
  16. If all the calibration settings are done turn the scale off and then on. The display will show the version number, count up, and go to the weigh mode.
SPAN CALIBRATION FOR SW1N-SERIES FULL CAPACITY CALIBRATION
