Description of the Item "Data Output Mode"
The parameter setting of "Data output mode (
prt
)" applies to the performance when the "Data
memory (
data
)" parameter is set to "
1
" (to store the weighing data) and when the data is
transmitted using the RS-232C interface.
Key mode
When the
PRINT
key is pressed with the stabilization indictor turned on, the balance outputs or
stores the weighing data and the display blinks one time.
Required setting dout prt 0 Key mode
Auto print modes A and B
When the displayed value is stable and the conditions of "Auto print polarity", "Auto print
difference" and the reference value are met, the balance outputs or stores the weighing data.
When the
PRINT
key is pressed with the stabilization indictor turned on, the balance outputs or
stores the data and the display blinks one time.
Auto print mode A
Example For weighing each time a sample is placed and removed, with "
ar-d
" set
to "
1
" (to adjust zero after the data is output).
Required setting
dout prt 1
Auto print mode A (reference = zero)
dout ap-p
Auto print polarity
dout ap-b
Auto print difference
dout ar-d
on Zero after output
Auto print mode B
Example For weighing while a sample is added.
Required setting dout prt 2 Auto print mode B (reference = last stable value)
dout ap-p
Auto print polarity
dout ap-b Auto print difference
Stream mode
The balance outputs the weighing data continuously regardless of the display condition. When the
display refresh rate is set to 5 times / second (
5pd 0
), the data output rate is also set to the same
5 times / second. The display does not blink in this mode. The interval memory mode is used
when the "Data memory (
data
)" parameter is set to "
1
" (to store the weighing data).
Example For monitoring data on a computer.
Required setting
dout prt 3
Stream mode
dout data 0
Data memory function is not used
ba5fnc 5pd
Display refresh rate
5if bp5
Baud rate
Caution The balance may not transmit the data completely at the specified refresh rate, depending
on the baud rate or data added to the weighing data such as time, date and ID number.
Interval mode
The balance outputs the weighing data periodically regardless of the display condition and the
display blinks one time. When the "Data memory ( data )" parameter of "Data output ( dout )" is set
to "
1
" (to store the weighing data), the weighing data is periodically stored in memory.
Pressing the
PRINT
key starts output and pressing the
PRINT
key again during output stops the output.
Example For periodical weighing without a personal computer command and to
output all of the data, to a computer, at one time.
Required setting
dout prt 3
Interval mode
dout data 1 Data memory function is used
