8.0 USER CALIBRATION
The Highland series of balances comes standard with HandiCal
TM
internal calibration
to make calibrating the balance quick and easy. However you can also calibrate the
balance using an external verification weight if needed. The HandiCal method is the
default but if you would like to use external calibration then you must first enable
this via the parameter (section 7.6 Selecting the Internal or External Calibration).
Install the handle for the calibration as shown below. To calibrate the balance the
handle is pushed to the side which will lower the calibration mass.
Internal Calibration using HandiCal
1) Press and hold the [Air/Liquid] and [Density] keys at the same time and
power on the balance.
2) Release both keys when the display shows unload.
3) Remove any weight from the pan assembly and press the [Tare] key when the
stable sign is shown.
4) The display will show C Int. Press the [Tare ] key and the display will show
LoAd.
5) Move the handle fully across as shown above which will lower the internal
calibration mass onto the pan assembly inside the balance. Press the [Tare]
key once the stable sign is shown.
6) The display will show PASS if the calibration is successful. Move the handle
back to its original position and the display will show zero.
