Calibration 

This chapter of the software it is for authorized personnel only (installation and maintenance). It allows trained personnel to calibrate the 
system using one of the following methods: 
 

 

With sensor characteristics, Twistlock diameter  

 

With a parameter file, or directly with calibration data (these must be prepared in advance) 

 

With a load test on each Twistlock individually  

 

Verify / adjust the calibration with a known weight container  

 

 

 

CAUTION! 

This part of the software is for authorized persons only! 

If the calibration is not done correctly, the system will not work properly. 

Conductix-Wampfler will not be responsible for system malfunctioning if the calibration is not 

correctly done.
