AD-4405A Weighing Indicator
Current Loop Output
The current loop output can be used to output data to an A&D printer and a display
unit.
The current loop output is of the passive type and requires an external current source
of 20 mA current. A&D’s printer and display unit can be connected without external
power source, because they supply the current.
The output terminals do not have a polarity. Each output terminal can be connected to
either the plus or minus inputs of the peripheral unit.
Set
f36
,

is
disabling the current loop output.
Data Format
The data format is the same as that of the initial setting of
f34
of RS-232C data format.
