Balance Response
Using Bi-Directional Communications:
Scientech electronic balances, interfaced to a computer via the RS-232 port, can be controlled by a computer
program. Any programming language with access to the RS-232 interface can be used to program this control.
The balance expects ASCII character instruction strings and responds with ASCII character data strings. All
characters with an ASCII value less than the space character (decimal 32 of hex 20), are ignored by the balanc-
es.
USB:
The RS-232 and USB ports share the same internal communication port. All commands described by the
RS-232 are valid for the USB as well. The balance utilizes a CP-2102 serial bridge architecture. The USB con-
nector is a type B located on the rear panel of the balance.
Commands – Balance Control Functions:
The following commands can be sent to the balance in any combination of upper and lower case characters.
No action is taken by the balance until it receives a carriage return indicating the end of the command string.
