How to Correctly Calibrate a Load Cell Using HX711 Library for Accurate Weight Measurements?
Hello everyone, I am trying to calibrate a load cell to obtain the correct weight. I followed the instructions from the HX711.pio library, which explains to start with no weight and then divide the raw value by the known weight to obtain the scale factor and use the tare method. However, the resulting values always show a ±10 error. How can I obtain the correct parameters to get the actual value from the load cell, or how can I achieve a better value if no weight is present? The result should be 0 when there is no weight.
