PC/EDP interface
The PC/EDP interface allows a bidirectional data exchange from the scale to external devi-
ces. The data is transferred asynchronously in ASCII code.
The control of the data transfer is ensured by parity supplement. The dialog frame is cre-
ated by control characters.
The specified characters in the data formats and dialog frames are ASCII characters. Iden-
tifier, sequential identifiers, function commands and control characters have a gray back-
ground and the hex values are additionally shown in brackets.
