Designation Explanation
1 SmartSens Two hands-free sensors.
Both of these hands-free sensors can be assigned a specific
function (e.g. zeroing, printing or display resolution adjust
ment).
See settings for SmartSens and ErgoSens in the respective
applications.
A specific function can be activated by moving the hand over
the respective sensor (maximum distance about 5 cm). The
sensor beeps to confirm that it has recognized the command.
2 Status bar The green icons in the status bar indicate the functions assigned
to the SmartSens left or SmartSens right. The F symbol repre
sents a function key. SmartSens is deactivated when no green
symbol is illuminated.
The yellow LED at the bottom of the status bar lights up briefly
when a key is selected or a menu function is initiated.
3 Home This key is used to return to the user profile Home from any

tings can be saved in a user profile. This allows the balance to
be adjusted to a specific user or weighing task.
For defining basic settings for each user profile. These settings
apply to all user applications.
10 Design and Function
6 Open/Close For opening and closing the glass draft shield doors. For conve
nient right and left-handed operation, one of these keys is pro
vided on both sides of the terminal.
7 Select application This key is used to select a required application.
8 Configuration For displaying menus for the configuration of a current applica

tion. The application can be adjusted to a specific task via
numerous settings.
9 Print This key is used to transfer data via the interface, e.g. to a print
er. Other devices, e.g. a PC can also be connected. The data to
be transferred can be freely defined.
10 On/Off For switching the balance on and off (standby mode).
Note
It is recommended not to disconnect the balance from the power
supply unless it is not going to be used for an extended period.
11 Tare This key is used to tare the balance manually (only necessary
for normal weighings). When the balance has been tared, the
Net symbol is displayed to indicate that all displayed weights
are net.
Note
A negative weight is not permitted. An error message is generat
ed.
When the stability detector icon extinguishes (small ring on the
left of the weight display), a stable weight is indicated.
The procedure for taring the balance is not the same as for zero
ing.
12 Zeroing This key is used for setting a new zero point manually (only
required if the balance is used for normal weighings). After zero
ing "Zeroing", all weights (also the tare weight) apply to this
new zero point and the following applies: tare weight = 0, net
weight (= gross weight) = 0.
13 Status indicator Indicates the current balance status. The status indicator shows
that the balance is ready to use.
Green = balance is ready to use.
Flashing green = balance is busy. Example: Internal adjustment
in progress.
Yellow = task pending, balance can still be used. Example:
Automatic internal adjustment pending.
Red = balance cannot/must not be used. Example: Balance is
not correctly leveled.
