Method for determining the necessity of adjusting a high-resolution electronic balance
First Claim
1. A method for determining the necessity of adjusting a high-resolution electronic balance comprising the steps of:
- for each of a plurality of parameters that interfere with the accuracy of a weighing result, monitoring said parameters to detect changes in said paramaters affecting accuracy of a weighing result;
converting each detected change in a parameter into a numerical point value that is a function of the magnitude of the change, using different functions to convert the changes in at least some of the different parameters;
accumulating the numerical point values to obtain an accumulated point value associated with the changes in all the different parameters; and
determining whether the accumulated point value has reached a triggering point number.

Abstract
In a process according to the invention for automatic calibration and/or linearization of a high-resolution electronic balance, point values are assigned by a function to the disturbance variables (parameters) that can affect the weighing result. A calibration and/or linearization is indicated or triggered when the accumulated point values reach a triggering point value (Xa) that is presettable, balance-specific and/or dependent on the environment. The calibration and/or linearization can also be triggered when the accumulated point value of a single disturbance variable reaches a triggering point value which is below point number (Xa).
