Do you have a question about the KERN FCB Series and is the answer not in the manual?
Intended use as a non-automatic balance for manual weighing.
Avoid dynamic weighing, permanent load, overloading, explosive environments, and modifications.
Warranty void if manual ignored, use is outside scope, or damage occurs.
Carefully read the operation manual before setup and commissioning.
Appliance must be operated and maintained only by trained personnel.
Check packaging and appliance immediately upon receipt for possible visible damage.
Keep original packaging for returns and secure all parts to prevent damage during transit.
Place balance on a firm, level surface away from heat, sunlight, draughts, and vibrations.
Carefully remove balance from packaging, remove protective cover, and place at workstation.
Ensure the balance is installed so the weighing plate is exactly horizontal.
Lists included accessories: balance, weighing plate, transport security, power supply, cover, manual.
Place on solid base, remove security, pull foil, attach plate.
Use only original KERN mains adapters with matching voltage for power supply.
Connect 9V battery; auto-switch-off can be activated/deactivated in menu.
Disconnect power before connecting peripherals; use KERN accessories.
Ensure balance reaches operating temperature and is connected to power before first use.
Adjust balance to local gravity/temp for accuracy; periodic adjustment recommended.
Use recommended weight, observe stable conditions, warm-up time, follow key presses.
Switch on, press/hold CAL, wait for signal, place weight, press SET/M.
Illustrates display and buttons for CB and FCB model series.
Switch on, ensure zero, place goods, read weight unit.
Place tare vessel, press TARE to zero display; repeatable for mixtures.
Stores tare weight, saved after power off; can be deleted.
Unit control; displays deviation from nominal weight with +/- signs.
Set reference quantity, place pieces, balance counts units; accuracy increases with reference.
Weighs/sums components in tare vessel for total net weight.
Displays weight in percent relative to reference weight; set 100% by placing reference item.
Select units (g, lb, oz) or set freely selectable factor.
Switch illumination on, off, or auto-off for contrast or battery saving.
Finds average weighing value over time; useful for moving subjects like animals.
Resets all balance settings to default factory configuration; choose 'yes' or 'no'.

Save or reject changes; options to exit and save or exit without saving.
Auto-Zero tares small variations; Zero-Tracking can be activated/deactivated.
Select adjustment weight from preset values (1/3, 2/3, max) for optimal results.
Set data transfer mode (e.g., Pr PC, AU Pr) for peripheral communication.
Set baud rate (e.g., 9600) for data transmission between balance and peripheral.
Select data (headlines, net weight, units) sent via RS232C interface.
Details on ASCII code, bits, parity, and baud rates for RS232C.
Diagram showing pin assignment for transmit data, receive data, and signal ground.
Explains data formats for weight/quantity/percentage and fault cases.
Details data formats for AU PC mode, including stable, fault, and unstable values.
Explains remote commands (s, w, t) for weight data and tare function.
Details data formats for RE Cr mode, including stable, fault, and unstable values.
Configure mode for Zebra printer; fixed format, print label with PRINT key.
Use mild soap suds; avoid aggressive agents and liquid penetration; clean residue carefully.
Only authorized technicians may open; disconnect power first.
Dispose of packaging and appliance according to valid national or regional laws.
