5.5 Connection of peripheral devices
Before connecting or disconnecting of additional devices (printer, PC) to the data
interface, always disconnect the balance from the power supply.
With your balance, only use accessories and peripheral devices by KERN, as they
are ideally tuned to your balance.
5.6 Initial Commissioning
In order to obtain exact results with the electronic balances, your balance must have
reached the operating temperature (see warming up time chap. 1). During this
warming up time the balance must be connected to the power supply (mains,
accumulator or battery).
The accuracy of the balance depends on the local acceleration of gravity.
Strictly observe hints in chapter Adjustment.
5.7 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 during the initial start-up, after change in
location and variation of surrounding temperature. To receive accurate measuring
values it is also recommended to adjust the balance periodically in weighing
operation.
5.8 Adjustment
The adjustment should be made with the recommended adjustment weight (see
chap. 1 "Technical data"). Adjustment is also possible with the weights of other
nominal values (see table 1), but not the optimum for measuring technique.
