Commissioning
Make sure before start-up of the equipment that the drain hose
leads into a drain!
For protection in transport, a strip of foamed material is inserted
between the shaker table and the inner face or the rear wall. This
must be removed before initial commissioning.
Check whether the voltage specified on the type plate matches the
mains voltage available. The power socket used must be earthed
(protective earth conductor contact). If these conditions are met,

containers, their arrangement or external influences (e.g. sunshine) cause the measuring value for the temperature to be incorrect.
Appliance variant KS 3000 ic control
There is a cooler built into this appliance variant.
By using an external cooling unit, the working temperature can be lowered in relation to the room temperature (depending on the
supply temperature). Set the desired temperature on the KS 3000 and switch the heating function on.
The cooler is connected to an external cooling unit (e.g. IKA KV 600) via the plug connection at the back of the appliance. The
inlet and outlet connections are labelled accordingly at the back of the appliance. To connect the cooling pipes there are two hose
connection pieces included. They can be connected to a hose with a 10mm interior diameter. The connectors are unlocked by coaxially
positioning the unlocking lever and pressing slightly in the direction of the arrow. By positioning and light pressure in the direction of
the plug, the connectors are locked/connected to the inlet/outlet plug connections on the housing.

Interfaces and outputs
USB interface
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus system for connec-
ting the KS 3000 to the PC. Devices with USB capabilities can be
connected and disconnected whilst in operation (hot-plugging);
connected devices and their properties are also detected automa-
tically.
The USB interface is used in conjunction with labworldsoft®for
operation in “Remote” mode
Installation
Connect the KS 3000 to the PC using the USB data cable. The KS
3000 will then transmit information to the Windows operating
system to tell it which device drivers are required. Windows will
then either:
- Load the driver
- Install the driver automatically, if it is not already installed
- Prompt the user to perform a manual installation
- In this case, select the appropriate download from the IKA
Internet product page.
Configuration
The unit can be controlled from an external PC (using the dedica-
ted software labworldsoft) via the RS 232 C serial interface / USB
fitted to the unit.
To increase safety when controlling the shaking unit from
a PC, enable the watchdog function for monitoring the
continuous serial data flow (see section watchdog function)

“Watchdog” function, monitoring the serial data flow
The following applies to situations where the watchdog function
is enabled (see Namur instructions). If no new transmissions
of these commands from the PC take place within the preset
watchdog time, the heating and shaking functions will be
shutdown according to the watchdog mode selected or will be
controlled using the preset setpoints. An operating system
crash, a PC power failure or a fault in the connecting cable to
the instrument can cause an interruption in data transmission.
“Watchdog”– Mode 1
If an interruption in data transmission occurs which is longer than
the preset watchdog time, the heating and shaking functions
will be shutdown and the error message PC 1 will be displayed.
“Watchdog”– Mode 2
If an interruption in data transmission occurs which is longer than
the preset watchdog time, the speed setpoint value will be set to
the WD safety speed setpoint and the temperature setpoint will
be set to the WD safety temperature setpoint.
The PC 2 warning message will be displayed.
