Calibrate by Shunt Command (CS) 
The Calibrate by Shunt (CS) command is used to calibrate the cell using the shunt 
calibration factor expressed in pounds (or pound-inches for a torque cell).  This 
command will only function if you have already issued a Calibrate Begin (CB) 
command.  Note that the cell should not have any load or torque on it for this command 
to operate correctly.  The format is CS(shunt value in Lb or LbI)#.  The example shows 
calibration of a load cell using a shunt value of 553.26 Lb.

(CIS).
