required.
Standard calibration feature automatically selects pre-programmed load bar calibration.

performed by your Service Centre when applicable.
Any Tru-Test load bars will operate with the latest indicators.

Calibration
Tru-Test indicators automatically identify and calibrate to the load bars you connect. The Tru-Test indicators
operate with the complete range of Tru-Test load bars. This is known as standard calibration.
There is no requirement to re-calibrate the indicator when swapping from one load bar to another. The standard
calibration feature eliminates the need for time consuming and inconvenient calibration using test weights.
Applications requiring the use of other manufacturers' load bars, which are not pre-programmed, can be satisfied
using span calibration with known test weights (refer to your Tru-Test Service Centre). Once calibrated in this
manner, the indicator can still be used with the Tru-Test load bars using standard calibration. Span calibration
with test weights can also be applied to any Tru-Test load bar if required.

Heavy duty (HD) load bars

The HD series load bars have been specially designed for heavy duty use and permanent installation under cattle
crates, crushes or squeeze chutes. Their unique footing absorbs the tremendous side loads which can occur and
prevents damage to the load cells.
Note: The load bar foot pads have been locked in position for transportation and installation, and must be
released before weighing (see instructions below).
Load bar options
Cattle crush or squeeze chute
A cattle crush or squeeze chute includes entrance and exit gates together with a head bail/gate.
Load bar adaptor cable kit
This kit allows four HD series load bars to be connected together, thereby doubling the system capacity. The load
bar adaptor cable kit is ideal for applications such as group animal weighing.
Installation instructions are included in the kit. Contact your Tru-Test Dealer for details.
