Installation Instructions.
Your Sartorius Scale provides exact readouts even under less
than ideal conditions.
However, exposure to extreme heat, vibrations or drafts may
adversely affect the weighing accuracy and should be avoided
whenever possible.
The scale can be adapted to your particular requirements and
to the specific ambient conditions simply by changing the
menu code settings in the scale operating program. Please
contact your dealer for assistance.
After you have plugged your scale into the AC adapter and
turned it on, allow for at least 30 minutes warmup. Once the
scale has been warmed up, the STANDBY feature will enable
you to skip the warmup procedure.
Important Note
Make sure to unplug the AC adapter from the wall outlet before you connect or disconnect additional devices (printer or
PC) to or from the interface connector (Option).
Startup.
Remove the white backing from the adhesive disks on the
dust cover. Attach the dust cover to the scale base by
slightly pressing down on the adhesive disks.
Mount the weighing pan (1) on the scale.
Double-check to be sure that the base dust cover does not
come in contact with the weighing pan.
Your scale is powered by an AC adapter. Check that the voltage rating printed on this unit is identical to your local line
voltage.
Plug the line cord of the adapter into the power receptacle of
the scale. Now plug the AC adapter into an electrical or wall
outlet.
Whenever possible, avoid connecting your scale to overloaded networks (compressors or similar equipment).
lf you have problems with your local line power supply, use a
suitable voltage stabilizer or an emergency power supply unit
(Option). Be sure to contact your dealer for technical information.
