The mode setting is kept even when the balance will be turned off.
  • Page 8: Taring Tare

    The indication of a weight unit, i.e. „g“ can be changed to another unit, e.g. 2kg“ by repeatedly pressing F. Setting unit see point 10 „General programmations“: Weighing with tolerance range, see point 7. Weighing with accumulation, see point 8. 6.1.2 Taring TARE Place tare cup on the weighing plate and press TARE.

    6.2 Mode „parts counting“ Set mode „parts counting“ with F and TARE on „1 Set 2“,, see point 10 „General programmations Confirm with S. Press F and release it when „U SEt“ appears. Now flashing indication on..PC % Select the required reference number → 5 → 10 → 30 → 100 pieces by repeatedly pressing TARE.
  • Page 10: Mode „Percent

    Tare cups can also be used when counting parts. Before starting tare it with TARE. Leave the parts counting program by pressing F. Release it Func an then when 1 SEt 2 appears. Further see point 11 „General programmations“. The last memorised reference number is kept even when the „parts counting“ program will be left.

  • Page 13: Weighing With Tolerance Range (Check Weigher)

    7 Weighing with tolerance range (Check weigher). This balance can be used as dispensing balance as well as grading balance. The respective lower and upper limiting values can be memorised. This is possible in all four modes: 6.1 WEIGHING 6.2 Weighing and parts counting 6.3 Weighing and percent 6.4 Weighing and conversion For 6.2 up to 6.4 firstly the starting extents have to be set, i.e.
  • Page 14: Input Of The Limiting Values Using The Keyboard

    Important! In case the balance should be unstable in the range of the limiting points, the vibration filter should be turned less sensitive, see point 10 „General programmations“. 7.2 Input of the limiting values using the keyboard Press S and release it when L.
  • Page 15: Accumulation Of Displayed Values

    8 Accumulation of displayed values The sum of all individual weighings during one period can be memorised in a separate store, for example the total daily sum of all weighings during this day. This is possible in all four modes: 6.1 WEIGHING 6.2 Weighing and parts counting 6.3 Weighing and percent...
  • Page 16: Net-Total Weighing

    8.2 Net-total weighing Useful when a mixture of several components will be weighed in a tare cup, and when finally the sum weight of all components will be needed for control (Net-total), i.e. without the weight of the tare cup. Place the tare cup (for example 852 g) on the weighing plate.
  • Page 17: Adjusting (Calibration)

    9 Adjusting (Calibration) 9.1 Introduction The accuracy of the balance can be checked and adjusted at any time with the enclosed adjusting weight. Take care of stable environmental conditions, see point 12 „Important informations“. A warming up time of approx. 30 minutes is necessary. Press and hold F and only release it when appears.
  • Page 18: Adjusting For Verification

    Before the verification procedure, the balance must be adjusted where it is to be used. The commutation of the readout, to 01 g for the verifiable balances 470-38 and 470-44. The balances have the following standard settings: KERN 470-38 470-44 Readout (d)
  • Page 19: General Programmations

    10 General programmations The manufacturer has set a certain default configuration. This marked with *. It can be changed as follows: Press F for approx. 4 seconds, release when Func Appears. Upon release appears. 1 SEt 1 The various functions will be called up by pressing F repeatedly. The individual setting within the various functions will be called up by pressing TARE repeatedly.

    11 Accumulator operation (optional) 11.1 Technical data: LOADING TIME: Approx. 8 hours when the balance is turned off. Operating time: Approx. 5 hours at continuous operation. Automatic shutoff: An automatic shutoff can be programmed (see point 10 „General programmations“). When it has been programmed the indication will be shut off 3 minutes after the last utilisation of the balance.

  • Page 28: Important Information

    13 Important information This precision balance should be used by skilled staff. This electronic balance is a precision instrument. Avoid disturbing environmental conditions such as air current, vibrations, strong electrical and magnetically fields and rapid change of ambient temperature. When necessary readjust the balance upon temperature adaptation. Avoid high humidity, vapours and dust because the balance is not hermetically closed.
  • Page 29: Trouble Shooting

    14 TROUBLE SHOOTING Trouble Possible causes No indication Balance is not turned on Mains connection does not function (cable not connected, cable defective). Mains supply break down. Weight indication is Air movements. changing permanently Vibrations of the table or the floor The pan is in contact with an alien element.
