A method and apparatus for calibrating load cells in the filed after the uncalibrated load cells have been installed. Two known weight conditions are used in conjunction with a storage device in which the uncalibrated load cells are installed. The method will calibrate the load cells, calculate load

A method and apparatus for calibrating load cells in the filed after the uncalibrated load cells have been installed. Two known weight conditions are used in conjunction with a storage device in which the uncalibrated load cells are installed. The method will calibrate the load cells, calculate load cell offsets, scale factor differences between load cells, and flexure/stresses in a supporting structure which rests upon the uncalibrated load cells.

The need for maintenance is identified through the collection of various door system (112) parameters, calculating current energy and time consumption from these parameters, and determining the rate of degradation based on current energy and time consumption of the door system (112) as compared with historical energy and time consumption. From the rate of degradation, maintenance can be scheduled as needed. ording to said universal identifier. 21.
