Basic Operation; Turning On The Balance; Zeroing / Tare - Adam Equipment HIGHLAND Serie Bedienungsanleitung

4.0 BASIC OPERATION

4.1

TURNING ON THE BALANCE

Plug in the unit using the AC adapter or use the internal rechargeable battery. It is
recommended that you charge the battery for at least 8 hours before first use.
1) To turn on press the [on/off] key once and release. The balance will show the
software revision and the capacity then self-test before showing zero on the
display and the stable sign.
2) The balance is ready to be used.
3) To turn the balance off after use press the [on/off] key again. There is an auto
power-off function that will automatically turn the unit off if not used for a
period of time, this can be set in the parameters section.
If an error is shown while turning on the balance check the internal calibration
weight has not been left in the calibrate position. Move the lever all the way to the
left. Turn off the balance and turn it back on again.
4.2

ZEROING / TARE

You can press the [Tare] key to set a new zero point and show the zero reading if
the weight reading is less than 4% of the total of the maximum capacity of the
balance. This may be necessary if the weight reading is not reading zero with
nothing on the pan. The zero indicator will show up in the upper left corner of the
LCD.
If you are using a container to weigh then you can place this on the platform and
press the [Tare] key. Providing the container weight is more than 4% of the
maximum capacity of the balance, the digits will show zero and NET will light up on
the display. You can then weigh your sample in the container. Taring weight
subtracts from the total balance capacity.
Note: When the container is removed a negative value will be shown
equivalent to the total value of the amount tared. The balance will
not tare a value for a container unless the stability light indicates that
the weight is stable thus ensuring a correct taring function.
