Purpose

The basic weighing function can be
used alone or in combination with
an application program (counting,
weighing in percent, etc.).

Features

– Taring the balance.
– Assigning IDs to weights (as needed).
– Printing weights.

Using Verified Balances as Legal
Measuring Instruments in the EU*:

The type-approval certificate for verifi­cation applies only to non-automatic
weighing instruments. For automatic
operation with or without auxiliary
measuring devices, you must comply
with the regulations applicable to the
place of installation.

● Before using the balance as a legal

measuring instrument, calibrate and
adjust it at the place of use using the
built-in motorized calibration weight;
for details, see “Calibration/Adjustment"
in this chapter.

$ The temperature range (°C) indicated

on the verification label may not be
exceeded during operation.

Example:
BD BL 200
+10°C to +30°C
0°C to +40°C isoCAL

* Including the Signatories of the Agree-

ment on the European Economic Area

Working with LE26P… Models:

Working with the microbalance requires a
steady hand and a smooth, uninterrupted
technique.

Use forceps or other suitable utensil to
place the sample on the weighing pan.

Perform a number of test measurements
before you begin weighing, to allow the
temperature inside the weighing chamber
to adjust to the ambient temperature
outside the chamber. Otherwise, if the
chamber door was closed for a longer
period of time prior to beginning weighing,
the sudden change in temperature inside
the chamber when you open the door
might affect the weight readout. This
is why a series of test measurements is
recommended; the repeated opening and
closing of the weighing chamber door,
at the same rate of speed as will be used
during the actual weighing sequence,
will both compensate this difference in
temperature to some extent and help you
develop a smooth working rhythm.

Place the sample gently on the weighing
pan. The weight readout should stabilize
within 15 to 20 seconds.
The degree of precision attained increases
in proportion as the weighing operations
become more homogenous.

Basic Weighing Function

15

Preparation

A circle in the upper right-hand corner of the display
indicates that the balance was disconnected from
power.
This symbol is shown, for example, the first time
the balance is put into operation, or after a power
outage.

● Switch on the balance: Press e.

> All symbols on the display light up briefly.

> The balance performs a display test.

$ Tare the balance, if necessary: Press w

When you turn on the balance, the b symbol is
displayed until you press a key.
If the b symbol is displayed during operation,
this indicates that the processor is performing
a function and cannot receive further commands
at the moment.

Additional Functions

● Switching off the balance: Press e

A circle in the lower left-hand corner of the display
indicates that the balance has been switched off and
is in stand-by mode.

16

Below-Balance Weighing

A port for a below-balance weighing hanger
is located on the bottom of the balance (for models
with a weighing capacity of 12 kg or more, order the
hanger directly from Sartorius).

$ Below-balance weighing is not permitted in legal

metrology.

● Open cover plate on the bottom of the balance.

● Using the built-in hanger (1): Attach the sample

(e.g., using a suspension wire) to the hanger.

$ Bore hole (2): Carefully fasten the special hanger,

or order a hanger directly from Sartorius.

$ If necessary, install a shield for protection against

drafts.

Calibration and Adjustment

Purpose

Calibration is the determination of the
difference between the weight readout
and the true weight (mass) of a sample.
Calibration does not entail making any
changes within the balance.

Adjustment is the correction of any
difference between the measured value
displayed and the true weight (mass)
of the sample, or the reduction of the
difference to an allowable level within
the maximum permissible error limits.

Using Verified Balances as Legal
Measuring Instruments in the EU*:
Before using your balance as a legal
measuring instrument, you must per­form “internal calibration" at the place
of installation after the warmup period.

Features

Calibration/adjustment can be

performed only when:
– there is no load on the balance,
– the balance is tared, and
– the internal signal is stable.

If these conditions are not met, an error

message is displayed (Err 02).

Adjustment can be performed
– automatically following calibration

(1 10 1), or
– manually, at operator discretion,

after calibration (1 10 2)

* Including the Signatories of the Agree-

ment on the European Economic Area

The weight displayed for the sample
on the balance must not differ from the
nominal weight by more than 2%.

You can use any of the following weight
units to calibrate/adjust the balance:
g, kg, lb (1 11 1 to 3, factory setting:
1 11 1)

You can block calibration/adjustment

of the balance as follows:
– Select menu code 1 9 7, and
– Close the menu access switch on the

back of the balance
– You can have calibration/adjustment

start automatically when a specified

time or temperature limit is reached

(isoCAL function; 1 15 3).

You can have calibration and adjustment

results documented as an ISO/GLP-

compliant printout; see page 47.

External Calibration in Verified

Balances of Accuracy Class K

– When the balance is used in legal

metrology, external calibration is

blocked by a seal over the menu access

switch.

19

Internal Calibration/Adjustment

The menu code setting 1 9 3
must be selected in the Setup menu.

Inside the balance housing is a motori­zed calibration weight which is applied
and removed automatically for internal
calibration.

● Activate calibration: Press q

> The built-in calibration weight

is applied automatically

> The balance is calibrated

> If “Calibrate, then auto adjust in one

operation" is selected in the Setup
menu, the balance is now adjusted
automatically.

> The internal calibration weight

is removed.

Calibration and Adjustment Sequence

In the Setup menu, you can configure
whether:

– calibration is always followed automati-

cally by adjustment (1 10 1; factory
setting), or

– you have the choice of ending the

sequence or starting adjustment after
calibration (1 10 2)

If no difference is determined between
nominal and actual weights, you can
end the calibration routine following
calibration.
Two keys are active at this point:

– q = start adjustment

– c = end the sequence

20

isoCAL:
Automatic Calibration and Adjustment

The menu code setting 1 15 3 must be
selected in the Setup menu.

– Temperature range with isoCAL:

0°C to +40°C

The “AUTOCAL" display automatically
begins flashing if the ambient tempera­ture has changed in relation to the
temperature at the time of the last cali­bration/adjustment, or after a defined
time interval has elapsed.
The balance is telling you that it wants to
self-calibrate and adjust.

This adjustment prompt is activated
when:

– The change in temperature or the

elapsed time interval is greater than that
shown in the table below

– The load on the pan has not been

changed within the last 2 minutes

– The balance has not been operated within

the last 2 minutes

– The weight on the pan is no more than

2% of the maximum capacity of the
balance

– Then let the balance perform the

adjustment procedure

When these requirements are met,

the following symbols are displayed:
– C in the measured value line
– AUTOCAL flashes in the symbol display

In the Setup menu, you can configure the

balance to display the adjustment prompt

only, without performing

calibration/adjustment automatically

(menu code 1 15 2)

isoCAL Deactivated on Verified Balances:

The permitted operating temperature

range for balances used in applications

subject to legal metrology (legal for

trade) is restricted as follows:
– Balances of accuracy class k:

+15°C to 25°C (+59 to +77°F)
– Balances of accuracy class K:

+10°C to +30°C (+50 to 86°F)

Fully automatic adjustment is initiated under the following conditions:

Counting

Menu code: 2 1 4

Display symbol: Z

Purpose

With the Counting program you can
determine the number of parts that
each have approximately equal weight.
To do this, a known number of parts
(the reference sample quantity) is
weighed first, and the individual piece
weight (reference weight) is calculated
from this result. Thus the number
of parts subsequently placed on the
balance can be determined from
their weight.

Reference Sample Updating

Automatic reference sample updating
optimizes the counting accuracy.
You can activate or deactivate this
function in the Setup menu.

When this function is active, automatic
reference sample updating is performed
when the selected stability criterion has
been met.

> The abbreviation opt, for “optimizing,"

is displayed briefly with the new
reference sample quantity.

Reference Balance/Scale

(Counting with two balances/scales)

Purpose:
Use of a reference balance/scale affords
higher precision in counting large
amounts of parts. The LE balance is
used to determine the reference weight.
The following weighing instruments or
terminals can be used for sample
weighing in conjunction with a refer-

ence balance/scale:
– For a QC scale: set menu code 8 8 2
– For an FB/FC/LA/LP balance/scale:

set menu code 8 8 3
– For an isi terminal:

set menu code 8 8 4

§ Please order the required connecting

cables directly from Sartorius.

The following settings must have the

same configurations in both

balances/scales:
– Counting program
– Weight units
– Settings in the LE balance:

Menu codes 7 1 2 and 7 2 2
– All data interface parameters:

– Baud rate

– Parity

– Number of stop bits

– Handshake mode

Transferring the Reference Value from

the LE Reference Balance:
– Press the v key

Data Input Format

You can connect a computer to your balance to send commands via the balance interface
port to control balance functions and applications.
The commands sent are control commands and may have different formats.
Control commands consist of up to 13 characters. Each character must be transmitted
according to the settings configured in the operating menu for data transmission.

Format for Control Commands
Format 1: Esc ! CR LF
Format 2: Esc ! # _ CR LF

Esc: Escape CR: Carriage return (optional)
!: Command character LF: Line feed (optional)

Command character Format 1:

Synchronization

During data communication between the
balance and a connected device (comput­er), messages consisting of ASCII characters
are transmitted via the interface. For error­free data communication, the parameters
for baud rate, parity, handshake mode and
character format must be the same for
both units.

You can set these parameters in the
Setup menu so that they match those of
the connected device. You can also define
parameters in the balance to make data
output dependent on various conditions.
The conditions that can be configured are
listed in the descriptions of the application
programs.

If you do not connect a peripheral device
to the balance interface port, this will not
generate an error message.

Handshake

The balance interface (Sartorius Balance
Interface = SBI) has transmit and receive
buffers. You can define the handshake
parameter in the Setup menu:

– Hardware handshake (CTS/DTR)
– Software handshake (XON, XOFF)

Hardware Handshake

With a 4-wire interface, 1 more character
can be transmitted after CTS (Clear to
Send).

56

Software Handshake

The software handshake is controlled via
XON and XOFF. When a device is switched
on, XON must be transmitted to enable any
connected device to communicate.

Data Output by Print Command

The print command can be transmitted by
pressing r or by a software command
(Esc P).

Automatic Data Output

In the “auto print" operating mode, data

is output to the interface port without a
print command. You can have data output
automatically at defined print intervals,
with or without the stability parameter.
The length of a print interval depends on
the settings for “Adapting the filter"
(1 1 x) and “Time-dependent automatic
printing" (6 3 x).

If you select the auto print setting,
data will be transmitted immediately the
moment you turn on the balance. In the
operating menu, you can define whether
automatic printing can be stopped by
pressing r.

Faster Output Speeds

If you require output speeds faster than
10 Hz, please contact Sartorius for
information.

Female Interface Connector:

25-contact D-Submini (DB25S) with screw lock hardware

Male connector used (please use connectors with the same specifications):
25-pin D-Submini DB25 with integrated shielded cable clamp assembly
(Amp 826 985-1C) and fastening screws (Amp 164 868-1)

! Warning When Using Pre-wired RS-232 Connecting Cables:

RS-232 cables purchased from other manufacturers often have incorrect pin assignments
for use with Sartorius weighing systems. Be sure to check the pin assignments against the
chart below before connecting the cable, and disconnect any lines identified differently
from those specified by Sartorius (e.g., pin 6).
Failure to do so may damage or even completely ruin your weighing system and/ or
peripheral device.

Weighing Instruments for Use in
Legal Metrology:
Council Directive 90/384/EEC
“Non-automatic weighing instruments”

This Directive regulates the determination
of mass in legal metrology.

For the respective Declaration of Type
Conformity for weighing instruments that
have been verified by Sartorius for use as
legal measuring instruments and that have
an EC Type-Approval Certificate, see the
page after next.

This Directive also regulates the
performance of the EC verification by the
manufacturer, provided that an EC Type­Approval Certificate has been issued and
the manufacturer has been accredited
by an officer of a Notified Body registered
at the Commission of the European Com­munity for performing such verification.

Sartorius complies with EC Directive
No. 90/384/EEC for non-automatic weigh­ing instruments, which has been in effect
since January 1, 1993, within the Single
European Market, as well as the accredita­tion of the Quality Management System of
Sartorius AG by Lower Saxony’s Regional
Administrative Department of Legal Metrol­ogy (Niedersächsisches Landesverwal­tungsamt – Eichwesen) from February 15,

1993.
