Information is available on KERN’s home page (www.kern-sohn.com) with regard to the monitoring of balance test substances and the test weights required for this. Our accredited DKD calibration laboratory offers fast and inexpensive adjustment for test weights and weighing balances (reset to national normal weight).
3 Basic Safety Precautions 3.1 Pay attention to the instructions in the Operation Manual Carefully read this operation manual before setup and commissioning, even if you are already familiar with KERN balances. Versions in other languages are non-binding translations. The only binding version is the original document in German.
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. 5.5 Initial Commissioning A warming up time of 2 hours after switching on stabilizes the measuring values.
5.6 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).

7.2 Arrangement of form printout x = space character The fields „line“ and „column“ are position printing input fields Field „Variable“ is a selection field of fixed printing possibilities Field „Fix text“ offers the possibility to specify texts for printout. The field „designation“...
Baud rate selectable from 2400, 4800, 9600 Baud (factory setting) and 19200 Baud. Sub-D plug 9-channel required For operation with interface faultless operation is only ensured with the correct KERN – interface cable (max. 2m) Pin allocation of the balance output socket (front view)
8.2.1 There are 4 kinds of data output via RS 232C Data output using the PRINT key The printing process can be triggered by pressing the PRINT key. The settings AUTOPRINT and AUTOPRINT should be disabled for this process. AUTOPRINT (data output according to weight application) The setting AUTOPRINT is located on the menu item “Data transfer G10“...
8.3 Printer The serial interface RS 232 facilitates the connection of a printer. The printout shows the weight in grams. In counting mode either the piece number or the weight details will be printed out. In percentage mode the percentage proportion or the weight details will be printed out. Printout will take place after pressing the PRINT key.
9.2 Service, maintenance The appliance may only be opened by trained service technicians who are authorized by KERN. Before opening, disconnect from power supply. 9.3 Disposal Disposal of packaging and appliance must be carried out by operator according to valid national or regional law of the location where the appliance is used.
10 Instant help In case of an error in the program process, briefly turn off the balance and disconnect from power supply. The weighing process must then be restarted from the beginning. Help: Fault Possible cause The displayed weight does not glow. The balance is not switched on.
