After entering the password, you can enter the corresponding interface.

Fig39

3.4.7.1 calibration force


The force calibration interface is shown in Figure 40, corresponding to two pages, used for force calibration
and force correction respectively.

Fig40
Calibrate the force sensor
Select the Force Sensors tab, as shown in Figure 6. There are four force sensor channels shown on the left:
"50kg", "0.0kg", "0.0kg", "0.0kg".
The calibration procedure is as follows:
1) Plug in the force sensor to be calibrated, such as a 50 kg force sensor, select a force sensor channel on
the left;
2) Enter the range of the sensor in the "Range" input box, eg "50" kg;
3) Enter the zero force of the sensor in the "Zero Value" input box, and input "0".
4) Click the Empty button to empty the calibration table.
5) Calibration point 1: Load the sensor in the "Standard weight value" on the right of the input box, enter "0"
kg, then click "take point" button, the first point AD value and standard weight The value is taken into the
calibration table;
6) Calibration point 2: load the sensor load of a certain value, such as hanging 5kg of weight, and the
"standard weight value" on the right side of the input box input load value of "5" kg, and then click "take point"
Button, the second point of the AD value and the standard weight value is taken into the calibration table;
7) Calibration point 3: method with the first two points, if you continue to calibrate the first three points, the
"AD value" and "standard weight value" can only be larger than the first two points, otherwise the calibration will
be inaccurate;
Page 27
Guangdong Hongtuo Instruments Technology Co.,Ltd.
8) Calibration point 4: method with the first two points, if you continue to calibrate the first four points, the "AD
value" and "standard weight value" can only be larger than the first three points, otherwise the calibration will be
inaccurate;
9) Calibration point 5: method with the first two points, if you continue to calibrate the first five points, the "AD
value" and "standard weight value" can only be larger than the first four points, otherwise the calibration will be
inaccurate;
10) Calibration point 6: method with the first two points, if you continue to calibration point 6, the "AD value"
and "standard weight value" can only be greater than the first 5 points, otherwise the calibration will be
inaccurate;
11) Click the "Write calibration data to capture card" button. If prompted "Write successful", complete the
calibration of a force sensor. If prompted "Write failed", please try again.
12) If you need to connect the second force sensor, repeat steps 1 to 11 above. Otherwise, set the range of
all other sensors to 0, and click the button "Write calibration data to capture card".
Note: At least two points should be calibrated. Steps 7 to 10 may not be performed. According to the current
characteristics of most of the sensors, the general point calibration can achieve very good accuracy, the second
point of the general value of the sensor range of 3 to 5%, the first three generally take the sensor range of 30 to
50% . If you calibrate more than 3 points (including 3 points), you must ensure that the "AD value" and
"standard weight value" of the latter point must be larger than the previous point, otherwise the calibration will
be inaccurate. If the "standard weight value" increases, the "AD value" becomes smaller and can be increased
by exchanging the two signal lines of the force sensor. AD value is generally about 8400000, the sensor load
"AD value" is proportional to change, if the load "AD value" unchanged, indicating the hardware is not working
properly, may be damaged or the sensor card is a collection card Fault, please contact the manufacturer to
replace.
If the measured force value is found to be slightly different from the standard weight after calibration, it can be
corrected by recalibrating once, or by directly modifying the standard weight value data in the calibration table. If
the measured value of the software is larger than the standard weight value , You can change the standard
weight value of the second point in the calibration table to a smaller value, and then click the "Write calibration
data to capture card" button, and then clear the alignment again until the two values are equal.

Force correction respectively

Fig41
When it is found that the force displayed by the software is different from the actual force, it can also be
solved by force correction, and the correction data can be written into the acquisition card. There are two
types of correction methods:
1) The actual strength value has been stored in the calibration list. For example, the standard weight
value used for calibration was 2 kg, and now it is found that the 2 kg weight is displayed as 1.95 kg, so
directly modify the software display force to 1.95, Then write the corrected data to the capture card.
2) The actual strength value is not in the calibration list. For example, after calibrating 2 kg, it is found
Page 28
Guangdong Hongtuo Instruments Technology Co.,Ltd.
that the 5 kg weight is not accurate. If 5.13 kg is displayed, you can click the "Insert" button to insert the 5
kg weight value, and then enter the software Display force input 5.13, and then write the calibration data
into the acquisition card.

Fig42
Note: If you need to modify multiple points, please modify the correction value at a time, and then write it to the
capture card, instead of correcting one, write one. Because after rewriting the acquisition card, the calibration data
is corrected, the correction value obtained before is inaccurate, and the correction value needs to be tested again.
For example, in the above example, if it is found that there are deviations between 2 kg and 5 kg, then after
modifying at the same time, the corrected data as shown in Figure 42 is obtained, and the data is written into the
acquisition card, that is, the correction is successful.
