6.5.2 Switch Off
Switch off balance using .
6.5.3 Balance zero display
Environmental influences can lead to the exact figure of zero not being displayed in
spite of an empty weighing dish. It is, however, possible to reset your balance to zero
at any time and thus ensure that weighing really does commence at zero. Setting to
zero when a weight is applied is only possible within a certain type-dependent range.
In the event that the balance cannot be reset to zero with an applied weight, this range
has been exceeded (± 0,2 % max).
To reset the balance to zero, press key . A triangle pops up next to the
symbol on the display.
6.5.4 Stability display
If in the display next to the symbol a triangle appears, the balance is in a
stable status. If the status is instable the display disappears.
6.6 Adjustment
As the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at every location on earth,
each balance must be coordinated - in compliance with the underlying physical
weighing principle - to the existing acceleration due to gravity at its place of location
(only if the balance has not already been adjusted to the location in the factory). This
adjustment process must be carried out for the first commissioning, after each
change of location as well as in case of fluctuating environment temperature. To
receive accurate measuring values it is also recommended to adjust the balance
periodically in weighing operation.
• Prepare adjustment weight, see chap. 1.
The adjustment weight you use is dependent on the capacity of the balance.
Perform adjustment as close as possible to the maximum load. Info about test
weights can be found on the Internet at: http://www.kern-sohn.com
• Observe stable environmental conditions. A warm up time (see chapter 1) is
required for stabilization.
