units, calibration and printing parameters. A standard RS232 interface permits
communication to an external printer or computer. Power is supplied through an
AC adapter.
INSTALLATION
For best performance, the balance should be used in a clean, stable environment.
Do not use the balance in environments with excessive drafts, near magnetic
fields or equipment that generates magnetic fields, rapid temperature changes,
vibrations or corrosive vapors.
Setting Up and Leveling the Balance
For exact horizontal positioning, the balance is equipped with a level indicator
and two leveling feet located at the rear of the balance.
Position the balance in the intended operating location. Adjust the leveling feet at
