— Instruction manual entitled "Installation and Oper- ating Instructions" Installations Instructions Your Sartorius Scale will provide accurate readouts even when it is exposed to unfavorable conditions. However, exposure to intensive heat radiation, vibrations and drafts may affect the weighing accuracy and should be avoided äs much as possible.
Standard you use, please contact your Sartorius Office or dealer. Insert the right-angle plug of the power supply in the AC jack as shown in the picture on the left.
Connecting Electronic Devices (Peripherals) Make sure to unplug the power supply from the wall outlet or from the scale before you connect or disconnect a peripheral device (printer or PC) to or from the interface port (Option). Safety Precautions The power supply rated to Class 2 (double insulation) can be plugged into a wall outlet without taking any additional safety precautions.
How to Operate the Scale After initially connecting the scale to line power, allow for at least 30 minutes' warmup. Turning the Display On and Off Press the ON/OFF key (8) to turn the display on or off. Self-Test After the scale is turned on, an automatic self-test of the scale's electronic circuitry is performed.
The zero symbol (with arrows) ->0<- in the weight display shows that the scale has been exactly tared so the display reads "0". Weighing Place your sample on the weighing platform (5) to deter- mine the weight. Read off the weight indicated in the display (7) as soon as the motion detection symbol "~"...
Over/Under Checkweighing Over/under checkweighing allows you to sort and classify products according to preset limits. "Classification" means sorting samples based on their weight into classes with defined weight ranges. RED/GREEN/YELLOW Indicators The RED/GREEN/YELLOW indicators are convenient visual aids. When you weigh the object to be checked, one of these color-coded indicators will light up to indicate the Status of the sample as follows: = the sample is underweight...

For example, for a target weight of 100 g, you can choose between — a continuous bar graph that travels from the left to the right (for determination of a sample weight) — a bar graph with a zero point = target weight (for determination of the difference in weight) —...

Product ID Numbers and Product Data Retrieving the desired Product ID Number Press the key (8) to turn the scale on. The product ID number that is selected at the moment will be displayed in the lower half of the weight display (7). To retrieve the desired product numbers, use keys (12) (14).
How to activate a product data function: Press the key (8) to turn the scale on. Clear the weighing platform. key (13) and With the scale turned off, hold down the briefly press the key (8). When the readout is displayed, release the key (13).
Changing the Target Weight The target weight depends on the menu code setting in the scale operating program. You can enter the target weight either by storing the weight of a sample on the platform or by numeric entry. The following menu codes can be set in the scale operat- ing program: Code 1 1 1...

How to enter a target weight using a sample on the weighing platform: — Clear the weighing platform Press the key to tare the scale — Place your sample on the platform (if you do not — place a sample on the weighing platform, the pre- vious weight will be stored) —...
Changing the Scale Divisions in the Display lf you do not wish to change the tolerance limits, it is not necessary to change the scale divisions (codes 1 1 5, 1 1 1). In this case, the scale will skip the following steps.
Changing the "Under" Limit Depending on the menu code setting in the scale operat- ing program, you can enter the under limit either by stor- ing the weight of a sample on the platform or by numerical entry. The following menu codes can be set in the scale operat- ing program: Code 1 1 1...
Changing the “Over” Limit Depending on the menu code setting in the scale operat- ing program, you can enter the over limit in one of two ways: either by storing the weight of a sample on the platform or by a numeric entry (see "Changing the Under Limit").
Calibration This is only possible with an accurate calibration weight: (see "Accessories") Model Calibration weight Order number TS 6100 B 5000 g 707213 TS 12 10000 g 707218 How to activate the calibration function: Insert the in the side of the display head. Unload the weighing platform.

Then press the key - the calibration weight will appear, i.e.: Center the calibration weight on the weighing platform. lf "+" appears in front of the weight readout, the calibration weight is too light. lf "–" is displayed, the weight is too heavy.
Scale Operating Program In order to access the scale operating program, you will need the The scale operating program enables you to change the menu code settings for the weight unit, the individual operating parameters for the scale, the display mode, Update rate and the data output parameter, including the parameter for the application mode.

Interface Description (Option) lf you wish to record weight data using the Sartorius Data Printer, just plug the printer connector Mo the interface port of the scale. You do not need to adjust any settings! (You can also interface your scale with a Computer.)
Data Output Parameters (Codes 8 1 to 8 16) Data can be transferred to the output port depending on the particular stability state of the weighing system (stabil- ity parameter: stable readouts). You can choose to have data transferred regardless of stability or only when the readout is stable.
