18

Installation and Putting into Operation

4.4Connecting the instrument


The balance is supplied with a country-specific AC/DC adapter or with a country-specific power cable. The pow
er supply is suitable for all line voltages in the range: 100 - 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. For detailed specifications,
see the section Technical Data.
CAUTION
Allow the balance to warm up for 30 minutes (0.1 mg models need 60 minutes) to adapt itself to the ambient
conditions.
Connect the AC/DC adapter to the connection socket on the back of your balance
and to the power line.

Attention
Check if the local power supply falls within this range. If this is not the case, under no circumstances con
nect the AC/DC adapter to the power supply, but contact a METTLER TOLEDO representative.
The power plug must be accessible at all times.
Prior to use, check the power cable for damage.
Route the cable in such a way that it cannot be damaged or cause a hindrance when working.
Ensure that no liquid ever comes into contact with the AC/DC adapter.

4.5Leveling the balance


Exact horizontal positioning and stable installation are prerequisites for repeatable and accurate weighing
results.
Note
To compensate for small irregularities or inclinations (2 %) at the location, the instrument must be leveled
and adjusted each time it is moved to a new location.
The balance can be levelled with the leveling assistant and/or with the level indicator on top of the terminal.
There are two adjustable leveling feet to compensate for slight irregularities in the surface of the weighing
bench.

4.5.1Leveling the balance with the level indicator


All balances have a level indicator with an air bubble to level the balance manually.
Leveling balances with readability of 0.1 mg and 1 mg

22

Installation and Putting into Operation

4.8General requirements
4.8.1Warming up the balance
Before working with the balance, it must be warmed up in order to obtain accurate weighing results. To reach
operating temperature, the balance must be connected to the power supply for at least:
30 minutes for balances with a readability of 1mg (0.01ct) to 5g.
60 minutes for balances with a readability of 0.1mg (0.001ct) and higher.

4.8.2Adjusting the balance


To obtain accurate weighing results, the balance must be adjusted to match the gravitational acceleration at its
location and depending on the ambient conditions. After reaching the operation temperature, an adjusting is
necessary in the following cases:
Before the balance is used for the first time.
When the balance (readability of 0.1 mg) was disconnected from the power or in case of power failure.
After a change of location and after the warming-up phase.
At regular intervals during weighing service.

5.10Working with IDs


Identifications (IDs) contain descriptive text for individual measurements, which enables samples to be easily
allocated to specific tasks or customers. This feature defines identifications in order to comment measurements,
such as company ID, badge ID or sample ID.
Identifications must be defined in the contextual settings of an application. Usage and definition of the ID differ
depending on the application the ID is used for.
Identification dialog screen
The Identification dialog screen can slightly differ depending on the application in which the ID is used. The dia
log screen always consists of two parts:
The table with the ID definitions on the upper part of the screen.
The Workflow handling options on the lower part of the dialog screen.

5.10.1Defining an ID
A new ID is defined as follows:
1 Open an application (e. g. Weighing).
2 Tap on the Main configuration symbol on the upper left corner.
3 Tap on [ ] Identifications
ID

4 Tap on ID 1.
The input dialog ID 1 opens. The input dialog is inactive.
5 Activate ID 1 with the switch in the title bar.
The input dialog ID 1 is activated.
The title bar shows ID 1 - Label.
6 Define ID 1 - Label.
7 Tap on [ ] to confirm the definition.
The input dialog ID 1 - Value opens.
8 Define ID 1 - Value.
9 Tap on [ ] to confirm the definition.
The screen Identifications opens showing the defined ID.

Note
The maximum length of an ID is 16 characters.
The picture below shows an example of defined IDs. IDs 1-3 are defined, ID 4 is still inactive.

5.10.2Workflow handling options


The workflow handling options differ depending on the application in which they are used. The following func
tions are available:
Input prompt
Autoincrement
Assign to sample

Input prompt
The function Input prompt can be used for every ID. If the function Input prompt is activated, the ID will be
prompted on the display before it is used. The user can decide whether to use the default value that has been
defined with the ID or to define an individual value.
Autoincrement
The function Autoincrement specifies that the last part of the ID is incremented with each use of that ID. There
are two basic functions depending on how the ID is defined:
If there is no counter in the ID, the system automatically adds a counter to the ID starting with 1 (e.g. the ID

Process will be Process1 in the next use).


If a counter is part of the ID, the system automatically increments the ID starting at that counter (e.g. the ID

Process 1 will be Process 2 in the next use).


Note
The counter must be set at the end of the ID, otherwise the system doesn't recognize the number as a

counter (e.g. in 567Apple the system doesn't recognize 567 as a counter).


If the ID has no counter and a maximum length of 16 characters, the last few characters will be overwritten

by the counter.
Assign to sample
If the option Assign to sample is activated, the ID will be used for each sample.

12.4MT-SICS interface commands and functions


Many of the instruments and balances used have to be capable of integration in a complex computer or data
acquisition system.
To enable you to integrate balances in your system in a simple manner and utilize their capabilities to the full,
most balance functions are also available as appropriate commands via the data interface.
All new METTLER TOLEDO balances launched on the market support the standardized command set "METTLER
TOLEDO Standard Interface Command Set" (MT-SICS). The commands available depend on the functionality of
the balance.
For further information please refer to the Reference Manual MT-SICS downloadable from the Internet under
