OPERATION
USB OUTPUT
With the Adapter installed the balance will operate in one of the following three ways:
•
USB = on, Auto Print = off, Stable = on or off
Pressing PRINT will send the display data based on the settings in the Menu.
If Stable is set to On, the balance will wait for a stable reading before sending data.
•
USB = on, Auto Print = on, Stable = on or off
The balance will automatically send data.
If Stable is set to On, only stable values will be sent.
•
USB = off
The interface is turned off. During battery operation, this saves significant power.
