7. CALIBRATION
The AD-4531B measures voltage signals from sensors and displays the
values. Calibration is performed so that the AD-4531B performs correctly.
The decimal point (Cf-01), minimum division (Cf-02) and rated
capacity (Cf-03) are set using the function mode.
The zero point input voltage (Cf-04), the span input voltage (Cf-05)
and the displayed value for the span input voltage (Cf-06) are
adjusted using the calibration mode.
Calibration setting using the function mode is also available. (Digital
span)
* During calibration, maintain a stable environment to prevent
calibration errors.
* When the measured value is stable, the HOLD LED is turned on.
* The decimal point blinks to indicate that the current value is not a
measured value.
7.1. Calibration Modes
In the measurement mode, press and to enter the
calibration mode.
Enter the zero point calibration mode.
Return to the measurement mode.
7.1.1. Zero point calibration mode
With nothing on the load cell, wait for
the HOLD LED to turn on and press .
Perform zero point calibration and
proceed to the span calibration mode.
Cancel zero point calibration and
proceed to the span calibration mode.
Hold down to display the mV/V value of
the zero point.
7.1.2. Span calibration mode
Input the value to be displayed when the actual load
for span calibration is applied to the load cell.
Wait for the HOLD LED to turn on and press .
Select the digit to be changed.
Increase the value of the digit to be changed.
Change the polarity.
Perform span calibration and
proceed to the storing mode.
Cancel span calibration and
proceed to the storing mode.
* After span calibration, the AD-4531B displays the mV/V value of
span calibration for 3 seconds, and then proceeds to the storing
mode.
7.1.3. Storing mode
Save the calibration zero, span and displayed
value acquired.
When calibration is not performed, data is not
saved.
Save the data acquired and return to the
measurement mode.
Do not save the data acquired and
return to the measurement mode.
7.2. Calibration Errors
Display Cause Remedy
C?e2
Voltage at zero point
calibration exceeds in the
positive direction.
C?e3
Voltage at zero point
calibration exceeds in the
negative direction.
Confirm the rating
and connection of the
load cell.
Display Cause Remedy
C?e4
The value of the calibration
weight exceeds the rated
capacity.
Use a proper calibration
weight.
C?e5
The value of the calibration
weight is less than the
minimum division value.
Use a proper calibration
weight.
C?e6
The load cell sensitivity is
insufficient.
Confirm the load cell
connection. Use a proper
calibration weight.
C?e7
Voltage at span calibration is less
than the voltage at the zero point.
Confirm the load cell
connection.
C?e8
The load cell output voltage is
too high when loaded to
capacity.
Use a load cell with a
greater rated capacity or
set a smaller rated
capacity value.
8. FUNCTION MODE
Use the function mode to set various functions. The set values are saved in
non-volatile memory and are maintained even if the power is disconnected.
8.1. Description of Functions
The first 2 digits of the function No. are the function group. The last 2 digits
of the Function No. are the function item.

displayed value for the span input voltage (Cf-06) in the calibration mode.
* Set the upper limit value (f1-01) and lower limit value (f1-02) in the
comparator mode.
* When setting a function, the decimal point blinks to indicate that the
current value is not a measured value.
* In the digital filter setting mode (f0-02), press to confirm the
measured value.
When the measured value is displayed, the OK LED blinks.
Press to set the display to zero. And press to return to the
measurement mode.
8.2. Key Operation
In the measurement mode, press and to enter the function selection mode.
8.2.1. Function selection mode

Select the function item. (Last 2 digits)
Enter the setting changing mode.
Save the setting in non-volatile memory and then return to the
measurement mode.
