Multi-Connection mode is not designed for each balance to
independently send the data.
This mode is for sampling the data by control of multiple
balances with one PC. This is not the function to support
multiple balances for sending the data separately.
When multiple number of data and commands exist on the
system at the same time, the balance may not operate
normally. For example, multiple data may exist simultaneously
on the system when using multiple balances in the Application
Measurement mode such as Auto Print or Continuous Output,
or pressing the
key. Normal operation cannot be
guaranteed.
Peripheral instruments connected to the DATA I/O or IFB-102A
connector, such as an Electronic Printer, cannot be used.
The communication formats can only be used with
.
Delimiters cannot be used with
or
.
It will take an average 0.05 x N seconds for the data from the
personal computer to reach balance unit N, even at setting of
38400 bps. Also, it will take almost the same time for the data
from the balance in the Nth position to reach the personal
computer.
Cancellation of Multi-Connection mode
Multi-Connection mode cannot be canceled unless the power
for all balances is turned OFF.
3.3 Foot
Switches
A foot switch is convenient when the operator must work with
both hands. Two types of foot switches are available.
FSB-102T
has the same operation as the
key of
the balance
FSB-102P
has the same operation as the
key of the
balance
Note: Either one of the foot switches can be connected at a
time.
3.4 Hook for Below-Balance Weighing
This hook is useful for conducting measurements with the
sample suspended beneath the balance, such as in specific
gravity measurement.
