Abstract

The calibration process is initialized as a function of the past measurement results. The time to the next calibration is dependent on the quality of the calibrations in the past. Before the calibrating of the balance, the program checks a number of parameters, which can affect the weighing result and compares the results with predetermined limits. If set conditions are exceeded, the program in each case returns to the beginning and starts anew.
