Despite unfavorable operating conditions, your MP8 balance will deliver accurate weight results. Simply adapt it to
your requirements by programming the appropriate codes via the balance operating program. For this purpose,
please refer to the final pages of the English section.

After connection to line power, allow for >30 minutes warmup.

Important!

Pull out the power supply unit (AC/LDC adapter) prior to connecting or disconnecting peripherals.

Operation.

The weight display provides the following special messages for your information:

BUSY

The processor is still busy processing other information and will not accept other functions at this time.

STANDBY

The balance was switched off with the ON/OFF function and is now in the STANDBY mode.

POWER OFF

The balance was separated from line power (fresh power connection, power failure).

CAL

The calibration function has been called.

Use the ON/OFF button (7) for switching on or off. You can also switch on with the tare bar (11).

After connection to line power, only the weight display will go off whenever you switch the balance off. The electronic
circuits remain power-supplied (STANDBY). This feature provides for instant operability the moment you switch on,
without having to wait for warmup.

After power-on, there is an automatic test of all electronic functions. Successful completion of the test is signaled by

Calibration.

Internal Calibration:

Clear the pan and zero the display. Once the display reads 0.0000 g, push the CAL button (8). The display now
reads “C”. If

YOU get “CE”, zero the display and push the CAL button again.

After a few seconds, the display will read “CC”, followed by 0.0000 g. A beeper confirms successful completion of
calibration.

External calibration:

This requires an accurate calibration weight.

Clear the pan and depress the tare button for at least three seconds until the calibration weight appears in the
display.

Place the calibration weight on the pan.
Now the weight unit symbol appears and a beeper sounds to signal completion of calibration.
You can lock both the external and the internal calibration function – see “Balance operating program.” Both

functions are active whenever the balance operating program has been unlocked with the access switch.

In addition to grams, this balance gives you a variety of other international weight unit options to work with.

Select the weight unit you need from the table in the balance operating program, and set the appropriate code as
described in section “Balance operating program.”

Balance operating program.

The balance operating program permits adaption of your balance to ambient conditions at the point of use and
different weighing requirements, plus selection of various weight units. At the factory, we have set the codes for a
standard program, which is protected by a locking function to prevent accidental changes.

same time depressing the tare bar.

After completion of the automatic power-on test, the status of the balance operating program appears in the weight
display: “L” stands for the list mode. In this mode, you can only verify the code setting, but you cannot program new
codes. If you want to change a program code, you must first unlock the program access.

To do so, slide the unlocking switch (10) at the forward right of your balance in the arrow direction.

The display will signal “C” representing the change mode, and you can now proceed to make the necessary code
changes.

After the balance operating program has been called, the display will show a continuous numerical sequence from 0
to 5 representing the page selection, in addition to the status signal “L” or “C”.

When the 0–symbol apears, this marks the actual setting.

To make changes (“C” mode), press the tare bar when the appropriate code appears.

Brief display of “BUSY” and the o–symbol confirms your selection, followed by return to the “zero” representing the
“line”.

To return to the weighing program:
push the tare bar each time a 0 appears in the numerical cycle (word, line, page). If you have made code changes,
your code entry is stored as soon as the display returns to the weighing mode. Lock the balance program with the
menu access switch (display “L”) and replace the protective cap.
