16. COOPERATION WITH A PRINTER OR A COMPUTER
CAUTION
A peripheral device that is connected to RS 3232 output of a balance, has
to be powered from the common low voltage power network equipped with
common anti-shock protection in a way to preclude possible occurrence of
different potentials in zero cables of the peripheral device and the balance.
Transmission parameters programmed in a balance:
- Baud rate - 2400 – 19200 bit / s
- Data bits - 8
- Stop bit - 1
- Parity control - none.
The value indicated on balance display can be sent through RS 232 output to a
peripheral device in one of four accessible ways:
• manually – on pressing PRINT key
• automatically – on stabilization of weighing result
• continuously – on activation of a function or sending a
command
• on command sent from a peripheral device (see additional functions).
Value indicated on balance’s display can be sent through RS232 output in the
following form:
• stable – data is sent immediately on stabilization of weighing
result
• unstable – on pressing of PRINT key causes immediate sending
of display status to a peripheral device (on a printout
such status is marked with <?> symbol proceeding the
weighing result).
