Power on the scale, waiting the screen appears zero, then you can put you scale on your scale. If not stable, you need to calibrate your scale as the instruction said.
Digital pocket scales are commonly used for business, shipping, cooking, and more. You should calibrate your scale every 4-5 times you use it, to make sure you get accurate readings. You can calibrate your digital pocket scale by cleaning it and following the calibration steps with weights, coins, or household items.
Calibration involves the use of a known mass to correct the accuracy of a scale. Many digital scales require a specific weight to calibrate with and to procedure varies between different models, so you will need to check your user manual for the required weight and steps. Pro Tip: Don't use nickels to make a "calibration weight". It would take tens or hundreds of nickels to equal the weight needed to calibrate most scales, and nickels are also not always exactly 5.0g. Sometimes they can be 4.9g or 5.1g depending on wear and tear. You are very likely to make your scale's accuracy worse if you try calibrating with nickels.
Here is the most common AWS - 500 scale's manual, you'll find the instructions on how to calibrate it properly: see link below.
A digital scale is a scale that measures mass but the numbers pop up digitally.
Take it to a Wedderburn Service department and they will do it for you
There is no adjustment or "calibration" for this.
It is 0.5 on a digital scale
To calibrate a scale means to place a known mass on the scale and note the value indicated on the display to see if the scale is accurate. Many times, when people say "calibrate a scale", they actually mean to perform adjustment. Adjustment is the process of using a known weight to correct the scales accuracy. Calibration is technically only the process of placing the weight on the platform and observing the error.
An old fashioned dial scale is more accurate than a digital scale. The error rate for digital scale is only 1%, which isn't too bad.

this video will show you how to calibrate the us-magnum digital scale : see link below: THIS VIDEO'S ADVICE IS FLAWED AND ILL ADVISED. One hundred, mixed date, US nickles, with no obvious wear, have an average weight of 499.05 grams; with a standard deviation of 1.65 grams. A 500 gram weight recommended for calibrating a 0.1 gram resolution scale would weigh between 499.97 to 500.03 grams, or have an even tighter tolerance.
