prevents the scale for being used for longer than the agreed period. This menu item is only available for KMT-TM terminals

For this procedure please connect the scale to an PC with an appropriated cable (PC – Scale, RS232, 9-pin straight cable
Sub D m/f) and open a terminal program on your PC (e.g. HyperTerminal). Verify that the scale is in "Dialog" Mode and the
settings of both interface of the scale and PC correspond.
Depending on your location you may need to send the SICS command "DSK_US" (for USA and Canada) or "DSK_EU" (for all
other countries) to the scale. The scale will send back "DSK_A". This means that the command had been executed
successfully. If this is not the case, please re-check the connection between scale and PC as well as the interface settings and
repeat this procedure again. To inquire the current status of the "DSK", send the SICS command "DSK". Note that each SICS
command must be terminated with CRLF (carriage return, linefeed).

The duration of use is limited to the number of days entered. Enter the number of days (1 - 999)
during which the scale can be used in the "Days" menu item. The duration of use is valid as of the
next day. If the set duration of use has passed, the scale still starts up, but no longer performs
measurements and instead displays the message that the duration of use has passed.
