Setting Serial port

A PC or printer can be connected via the RS232/V24 DB9 serial interface and a PC can be connected via the USB DEVICE serial interface. Both connections are located on the back of the balance. For data transmission, the interface parameters of the balance must match with those of the peripheral device.

Data reception

A list of possible remote control commands is provided at the end of this help text.

Data sending

Mode Protocol

In mode Protocol, the protocol defined for the application is output automatically or with the [PRINT]-key, depending on the setting.

Mode Measurement transfer

In mode Measurement transfer by pressing the soft button [Transfer] or the [PRINT]-key respectively (depending on the trigger setting) the current weight value is transferred according the set format of the settings Measurement transfer. If trigger is set on Transfer button the soft button [Transfer] must be activated in the Action bar.

Note, to ensure to activate on the Action bar the soft button [Transfer] if trigger is set on Transfer button.

 

Remote control commands

Each remote command has to be closed with CR LF which corresponds to pushing the [Enter] key. Commands can be acknowledged using ACK1.
