    Use a suitable cable to connect the weighing transmitter to the interface of the computer. The fault-free operation is ensured either by the corresponding KERN- interface cable (KERN 572-926) or directly via the RS232-interface of the PC. Enter default values:...
  • Page 22: Ethernet

    Separate connection to the PC (access point) and disconnect power supply of the YKV. Should settings have been made on the device, make sure that afterwards the power supply to the YKV is disconnected. Only then the settings will be imported. Update (reboot-button) and saving (save-button) are not sufficient. YKV-01-02-BA_IA-e-1911...
  • Page 23 • Invoke the configuration website and check the IP-address. (s. fig.:) Close the configuration website, connect the PC to the selected network Open the target software (e.g. KERN Balance Connection) and enter the IP-address and port 23. (s. fig.:) For inquiry of the configuration allocated via DHCP, as well as to the specific/static configuration of the IP-address, subnet-mask or the gateway, the KCP-commands JNWx can be used.
