7. START-UP
When plugged to mains, the balance displays name and number of software, and
afterwards proceeds to weighing mode.
7.1 Balance temperature stabilization period
Before start of measuring processes, it is necessary to wait until the balance is
thermally stabilized. It is a period of so called balance self-heating. In case of
balances PS series self-heating period takes approximately 30 minutes. The
specified time interval refers to balances that have been stored in room temperature
before plugging to mains.
For balances that were stored in much lower temperatures before plugging to mains
(e.g. during winter period) thermal stabilization should last approximately 4 hours.
Correct operation of a balance is possible within temperature range specified in the
technical parameters, see point 1. If the balance is placed in area which ambient
temperature is out of temperature range specified in the technical data, then
balance’s display may signal such situation by lighting an appropriate marker (a
black triangle).
In case the balance displays the marker, increase or decrease ambient
temperature, depending on present temperature value. It is recommended that
ambient temperature changes at balance’s place of use are very small (slow).
