  • Page 13: Mains Connection

    6.3 Mains connection Power is supplied via the external mains adapter. The stated voltage value must be the same as the local voltage. Only use original KERN mains adapters. Using other makes requires consent by KERN. 6.4 Operation using a (rechargeable) battery (optional) Lift-off the battery compartment cover on the lower side of the balance.
  • Page 14: Adjustment

    6.7 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).

    7.7.1 Automatic reference optimization To do this, the function “OPti“ has to be enabled (on) in the menu, see chpt. 8. Enter reference weight (see chpt. 7.7) The reference weight is recalculated each time new additional items are placed on the weighing platform (up to 100 pieces only). As the additional pieces increase the base for the calculation, the reference also becomes more exact.

  • Page 25: Selection Of The Adjustment Weight

    8.4.4 Selection of the adjustment weight For the model ranges KERN CDE and CME the adjustment weight can be selected from three or four preset nominal values (c.1/3; 2/3; max or c.1/4; 1/2; 3/4; max) (see also table 1 below, default settings are highlighted in grey). In order to achieve high- quality weighing results in the sense of the measuring technology, it is recommended to select the nominal value as high as possible.

  • Page 34: Counting System Cdee

    A counting system allows the construction of a dual balance assembly for piece counting. The KERN Scale CDE is used as quantity scale for the determination of the piece number/piece weight. The high resolution of Kern scale KERN CME allows a very precise determination of the reference weight for items of low weight.
