3. Inspect the balance for any signs of damage incurred during shipping. If damage is found, contact your supplier immediately.

4. セットアップ

4.1 配置

Place the balance on a sturdy, level, and vibration-free surface. Avoid locations near air conditioning vents, open windows, or direct sunlight, which can cause temperature fluctuations and affect weighing accuracy.

4.2 Draft Shield Assembly

The Cubis II MCA125S-2S00-I comes with Draft Shield I. Assemble the draft shield components according to the diagrams provided in the separate assembly guide (if applicable) or by carefully following the intuitive design. Ensure all glass panels are securely seated to prevent air currents from affecting measurements.

4.3 バランスの均衡

The balance must be perfectly level for accurate measurements. Use the leveling feet located at the base of the balance and the integrated spirit level (bubble level) to adjust until the bubble is centered.

1. Locate the spirit level, usually at the front or side of the balance.
2. Adjust the two rear leveling feet until the bubble is centered in the spirit level.
3. Adjust the front leveling foot (if present) to fine-tune the level.

4.4電源接続

Connect the power adapter to the balance and then plug it into a suitable electrical outlet (100-240V AC). Allow the balance to warm up for at least 30 minutes after connecting power before performing any measurements to ensure optimal stability.

5. 操作手順

5.1 電源のオン/オフ

を押す オン/オフ button (often indicated by a circle with a vertical line) to power on the balance. To turn off, press and hold the same button until the display shuts down.

5.2 基本的な計量手順

1. 計量皿が清潔で空であることを確認します。
2. Close the draft shield doors.
3. を押す 風袋 or ゼロ 表示をゼロに設定するボタン。
4. 計量する物を計量皿の中央に慎重に置きます。
5. Close the draft shield doors.
6. Wait for the stability indicator (usually a circle or asterisk) to appear on the display, indicating a stable reading.
7. Read the weight displayed in milligrams (mg).
8. Remove the item from the weighing pan.

5.3 Using the Tare Function

The tare function allows you to weigh the net weight of a substance by subtracting the weight of its container.

1. 空の容器を計量皿の上に置きます。
2. Close the draft shield doors.
3. を押す 風袋 ボタンを押します。ディスプレイにゼロが表示されます。
4. 計量する物質を容器に入れます。
5. Close the draft shield doors and wait for a stable reading. The displayed value is the net weight of the substance.

5.4 MCA Interface

The MCA Interface provides advanced control and data management capabilities. Refer to the separate MCA Interface user guide for detailed instructions on navigating menus, configuring settings, and connecting to external devices or software. This interface allows for customization of weighing applications, data logging, and compliance features.

6. キャリブレーション

Regular calibration is crucial for maintaining the accuracy of your balance. The Cubis II balance may feature internal calibration (isoCAL) or require external calibration using certified weights.

6.1 Internal Calibration (isoCAL)

If your balance is equipped with isoCAL, it will perform automatic internal calibration at set intervals or when temperature changes occur. You can also initiate it manually via the menu. Consult the MCA Interface user guide for specific steps.

6.2 外部キャリブレーション

For external calibration, you will need certified calibration weights appropriate for the balance's capacity and readability. The procedure typically involves:

1. Accessing the calibration menu on the MCA Interface.
2. Following the on-screen prompts to place and remove the specified calibration weights.
3. Confirming the calibration process.

Always use certified weights and ensure they are clean and handled with gloves to avoid contamination.
