Page 14: Levelling
Prior to any installation and assembly works, the balance must be separated from the mains supply. Remove the transport securing from the lower side of the balance. Install the balance at the intended workplace. The right place is decisive for the accuracy of the weighing results of high- resolution analytic balances (see chap. -
Page 15: Electric Power Supply
Before connecting or disconnecting of additional devices (printer, PC) to the data interface, always disconnect the balance from the power supply. With your balance, only use accessories and peripheral devices by KERN, as they are ideally tuned to your balance. -
Page 16: Adjustment
• Carry out adjustment as near as possible to the balance’s maximum weight (required adjustment weight see chap. 1). Info about adjustment weights can be found on the Internet at: http://www.kern-sohn.com • Observe stable environmental conditions. Stabilisation requires a certain warm-up time. -

Page 18: Basic Operation
8 Basic Operation 8.1 Start-up As soon as the balance is supplied with energy, the indicator [ ] is displayed. To switch on press the ON/OFF key. The balance carries out a display test. As soon as the weight display appears, the balance is ready for weighing. - Page 19 8.3 Zeroing In order to obtain optimal weighing results, reset to zero the balance before weighing. Unload the balance. Press the TARE key. Wait until the zero display appears. 8.4 Simple weighing Place the goods to be weighed and close the windshield.
- Page 20 8.6 Weighing with tare The dead weight of any weighing container may be tared away by pressing a button, so that the following weighing procedures show the net weight of the goods to be weighed. Set balance to zero Deposit empty weighing container. The result is displayed.

Page 21: Applications
9 Applications 9.1 Parts counting Before the balance can count parts, it must know the average part weight (i.e. the reference). Proceed by putting on a certain number of the parts to be counted. The balance determines the total weight and divides it by the number of parts, the so- called reference quantity. - Page 22 Use the MODE key to switch-over the display to the available units, see chap. 8.5 Sample protocol 7. Printing (KERN YKB-01N) The display value will be printed out by connecting an optional printer and pressing the PRINT key (factory 100 pcs s setting).
- Page 23 Use the MODE key to switch-over the display to the available units, see chap. 8.5 Sample protocol 6. Printing (KERN YKB-01N) The display value will be printed out by connecting an optional printer and pressing the PRINT key (factory 49.99 % s setting).

Questions and answers
WHATY DO I DO IF ITS DESPLAYING A NEGATIVE E ON THE SCREEN
The negative "E" on the screen of the KERN ADB Series scale indicates that the weighing range has been exceeded, meaning the placed load surpasses the scale’s capacity. The solution is to remove the excess weight from the scale.

what if there is a negative e on the screen but there are not weights on the pan
A negative value on the screen when there are no weights on the pan indicates that a tare value has been stored. To delete the stored tare value, remove the load from the weighing pan and press the TARE key.
