SCALE OPERATION
CALIBRATION
The scanner/scale must be calibrated if:
• it is a first time installation
• the scale cannot be re-zeroed
• the calibration verification tests indicate errors
• there is a change in the units of measure [i.e. from pounds (lbs.) to kilograms (kg)]
• if the scale load cell has been replaced
• the calibration seal is missing or torn
The certification of the weighing mechanism of the scale version of this scanner is subject to federal, state and local Weights
and Measures statutes and regulations and can only be performed by authorized government agencies and/or their duly
registered agents. Each time the scale or weighing mechanism is calibrated, it should be properly sealed with a paper seal or a
wire seal prior to being placed into service in commerce.
It is the responsibility of the owner of the scale to confirm compliance with the relevant Weights and Measures statutes and
regulations applicable in your area by checking with the appropriate government agency before placing a newly calibrated unit
into service or removing any official seals.
Tools Required
• Field Standard 30.0 pound Weight Set or 15.0 kilogram Weight Set
• Phillips #1 Screw Driver
• Wire or Paper Seal
Type of seal to be used will depend on the guidelines specified by the local Weights and Measures authorities.
Scale Calibration Methods
• Scale Calibration with Remote Display uses the scale display to sequence through the calibration steps and store critical
calibration points.
• Bar Code Scale Calibration without Remote Display* uses the scanner / scale only and assumes there is no remote scale
display. A bar code is used to initiate the calibration sequence and the speaker volume switch is used to store critical range
values.
* This calibration procedure will also work with the remote display connected to the StratosH.
