Calibration
After the MSI has been properly installed, calibration of the weighing system must be
done in conjunction with the integrator. Refer to the integrator instruction manual for
programming and calibration. The calibration is initially done using the supplied test load.
Material tests are recommended to achieve maximum accuracy.
Test Load
The test load value is required for calibration of the integrator. Enter the calculated value
into the associated programming parameter of the integrator in kilograms per meter or
pounds per foot.
The test load value is calculated as follows:
test load = Total weight of all test weights
Zero
Perform the zero calibration as described in the Calibration section of the integrator
manual (included on the Manual CD).
Span
The test load used in the calibration procedure is a set of factory sized and supplied test
weights (1 to 12).
The test weights are all to be placed on the test weight bar as shown.
Perform the span calibration as described in the Calibration section of the integrator
instruction manual.
After the span calibration has been completed, remove the test load and store it.
