Scale Communication Parameters
Any required parameters needed to control communication with the scale can be entered into this field.
For serial scale connections (namely Mettler Toledo, MTSICS, NCI and Pennsylvania 7300), other than the default
values (which can be left empty), the following format is expected:
<BAUD RATE>,<PARITY>,<BITS>,<STOPBITS>
Eg. 9600,N,8,1
Table 3-2. Valid Values for Scale Communication Parameters
For USBHID, other than the supported scales listed, the scale communication parameters should contain the
vendor and product ID in the following format:
<VENDOR ID>,<PRODUCT ID>
