Calibration Sketch:


#include "HX711.h"

#define LOADCELL_DOUT_PIN 3
#define LOADCELL_SCK_PIN 2

HX711 scale;
float calibration_factor = -7050; // Change as needed

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("HX711 calibration sketch");
  scale.begin(LOADCELL_DOUT_PIN, LOADCELL_SCK_PIN);
  scale.set_scale();
  scale.tare();
  long zero_factor = scale.read_average();
  Serial.print("Zero factor: ");
  Serial.println(zero_factor);
}

void loop() {
  scale.set_scale(calibration_factor);
  Serial.print("Reading: ");
  Serial.print(scale.get_units(), 1);
  Serial.print(" lbs    Calibration Factor: ");
  Serial.println(calibration_factor);

  if (Serial.available()) {
    char temp = Serial.read();
    if (temp == '+' || temp == 'a') calibration_factor += 10;
    else if (temp == '-' || temp == 'z') calibration_factor -= 10;
  }
}

Example Program:


#include "HX711.h"

#define calibration_factor -7050.0
#define LOADCELL_DOUT_PIN 3
#define LOADCELL_SCK_PIN 2

HX711 scale;

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("HX711 scale demo");
  scale.begin(LOADCELL_DOUT_PIN, LOADCELL_SCK_PIN);
  scale.set_scale(calibration_factor);
  scale.tare();
}

void loop() {
  Serial.print("Reading: ");
  Serial.print(scale.get_units(), 1);
  Serial.println(" lbs");
}
