    Please disconnect the equipment from the mains before opening. Warranty is forfeited if the equipment is opened. The FIS weighing system may not be used in hazardous areas. 3.4 Important information The measured values are stabilised by a short warm-up period lasting a few minutes after switching on.
  • Page 12: Installation And Commissioning, Operating Instructions

    Power-driven weighing belts or roller conveyor tracks must comply with the requirements of the 98/37/EC directive on machinery. 4.3 Function test/ready-to-operate An automatic function test is carried out as soon as the FIS is connected to the mains supply. The weighing terminal is operative when a weight value is displayed.
  • Page 13: Scope Of Delivery

    4.4 Scope of delivery The weighing system is supplied with the following components: Load carriers FIS weighing terminal Operating instructions 4.5 Levelling the weighing system The weighing system is levelled in the factory using the foot screws. Please check that all 4 foot screws rest evenly on the supporting area.
  • Page 14: Calibration Information

    The four screws on the rear side of the terminal must be opened in order to reach the calibration switch (equalising plug). Caution: Please remove the mains plug before opening the terminal. The GEO value can only be changed or the balance calibrated if the calibration switch (equalising plug) has been pulled out. FIS-BA-e-0512...

    The statutory provisions of the relevant countries are to be observed. 5.3 Levelling device The FIS is fitted with a bubble level. This must be checked following every change in location and the balance re-levelled if necessary. The bubble level may also be installed underneath the load plate on small load carriers.
