Introduction
There are several calibration methods available, and not all are available on every BP model. Most BP instruments do NOT have
internal weights, so internal calibration is not possible on those. Whatever calibration methods are available will be selected
through the menu. For standard calibration with external weight, proceed directly to External Calibration below. For standard
calibration, using the internal weight (unit must be so equipped) , proceed directly to Internal Calibration. Otherwise, enter the
configuration menu system to choose a calibration type, as follows
Configuration Menu
1 Switch the unit OFF, then ON again, with the pan empty. During the power-up sequence (all display segments showing) press
TARE. (If the display shows "1", then the configuration menu has been locked. The configuration swithc is located on the rear
panel to the LEFT (looking from the rear) of the power connector. In order to access the menu system, this switch must be
moved to the RIGHT. ) DO NOT actuate the switch located to the right of the power cable connector.
