Gen 6 calibration error

[Davidfranklin]

Having trouble calibrating my gen 6 scales it’s only reading 27g when trying to weigh the 50g calibration weight.
any one had this problem before and know what could possibly be wrong.

I have found the cold weather can make them go a bit funny

Ignore the 3 minute warm up, mine is plugged into surge protection and left turned on but powered down , until needed... . Negates a lot of the problems associated with the cold .
Also check there isn't any spurious kernels under the weigh plate . Though you've probably already done that.

Check that there is nothing jammed under the scale patten.
Check the power supply is delivering correct voltage.

I have had 2 Gen 6 scales and they all seem to be a bit flakey even under ideal conditions.
I stopped trusting it fully about a year ago and now use it as a thrower and trickle to weight with a Targetmaster.

Scales should be in the room

Very sensitive to temperature id store them overnight where i intend to use them to let them settle, they don't like draughts or mobile phones

Have you resolved the problem?

Might be static wipe down with a used dryer sheet, works on my Pact unit.

No still having same issue. It’s giving me different weights for the 50g calibration weight. Any we’re from 22g highest I got was just shy of 40g.
iv kind of gave up now and just using beam
