  1. Load scale corners
  2. Read correction value from diagram
  3. Activate balancing resistor

Additional features include EMC-compliant cable glands for cable diameters ranging from 4-6.5mm. HBM has devised a shielding design that provides full EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) in compliance with the EN 45501 standard or the international OIML R76 guide.

Special EMC-compliant cable glands for diameters up to 7.5mm are also available, enabling cables with larger diameters to be used for connection to scale electronics over longer distances.
