Confirm by pressing the button7. Now enter the quantity of platforms. As per standardthere are 2. (up to 6 platforms available)7.7 AdjustmentAs the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at every location on earth,each display unit with connected weighing plate must be coordinated - in compliancewith the underlying physical weighing principle - to the existing acceleration due togravity at its place of location (only if the weighing system has not already beenadjusted to the location in the factory). This adjustment process must be carried outfor the first commissioning, after each change of location as well as in case offluctuating environment temperature. To receive accurate measuring values it is alsorecommended to adjust the display unit periodically in weighing operation.• Prepare the required adjustment weight. The weight to be used dependson the capacity of the scale. Carry out adjustment as near as possible tothe scale’s maximum weight. Info about test weights can be found onthe Internet at: http://www.kern-sohn.com.• Observe stable environmental conditions. Stabilisation requires a certainwarm-up time.
