Does this have to be calibrated?

I did not have to calibrate it but I can only speak for myself. I use it to ship out first class items or 1-3 pound items. When I get a reading of 4.5 ounces, I send out package at 5 ounces. I've never had an item weigh too much. Hope that helps.

I do not believe this unit required calibration. I checked it against some 1 to 4 oz letters I had and it registered correctly. I have used this for up to 13 oz, including flats, and have sent a lot of mail using it. So far, no issues. Good unit for the price.

I got it and I think the only thing I had to do is turn it on and let it "zero" out - after that, it works like a charm and I havent had to do a thing to it.

You have to calibrate it. It was beyond me. But i had a friend who'd done well in chemistry. He was unsuccessful in getting a reading that made sense, but I blame that more on him, than the reader. I would look for a pre-calibrated meter for someone with limited tech skills. i needed it to test PH in pond water. I have several mud ponds. The PH is a little different in each of them.

Hi I have never had to calibrate. This is the second remote I have gone through. I do have the Roku XR model from years ago. When I am desperate I use the free Roku remote app via my kindle fire . Hope this helps you. Cathleen

The documentation of this product did not say anything about calibration. Thus I assume it is already calibrated at the factory. But you bring up a good point. What if at some point the calibration may be off and what do we do? Documentation said nothing about this.

Its always best to calibrate to a known weight. I did not have any known weights, so I calibrated it to zero (ie no weight). For my purposes, this was sufficient.

I didn't look to see if it could be calibrated. It gives reasonable results out of the box.

I have owned a couple of them, and I have never calibrated...so I would say no...it's a very simple, pedometer...

I do not know of anyway to calibrate it. There might be a way, but I do not know. Ask BOSCH.

Well in a relative sense, the answer is yes. The reason I say that is you have to calibrate it yourself. If you immerse the meter tip into something that you know is 100% saturated, you have the ability to set the meter reading to the maximum, which is 10. Therefore, all other readings should become accurate. This is explained in the instructions that come with the meter.

For me it was ready to rock and roll. However I would suggest you run some basic tests to make sure yours is, and that the calibration is to your personal liking.

Yes it can be re-calibrated if necessary. When I do it the scaleasks for a 1000.0 g weight. I don't have any so I just check itwith the smaller weight set I have. You can buy the weighton ebay for 17 USD or so. Wish they stated this in the productdescription.Good luck.Joe

I found no calibration feature. You can contact the manufacturer and they will answer your question further.

It can be calibrated the same way any torque wrench is cal'd. Any precision calibration shop will be able to do it. Scott Reilly, A&P; Mechanic

No special calibration is needed. As far as what tools to use, there should be instructions with your kit about the installation process.

It comes with maybe a ketchup packet worth of calibration solution which will calibrate initially. You can go about a month without calibrating. It falls off a point or 2 by then.

Lol.I haven't tried yet. As I stated,mine is off by 10lbs. I guess check on line and see if they have instructions on how to calibrate. Good luck

No, it should be calibrated. Make sure you have it set to read salinity. The pool water should read around 0.3 percent, or 3 ppt or 3000 ppm. My chlorinator also reads the amount of salt and it agrees well with this instrument.
