12.3 Type of Communication Texts
This interface function uses the following three types of communication texts:
(1) Output data
Data, such as weight values, that is output from the balance to an external unit
(2) Input commands
Commands to control the balance from an external unit
(3) Response
Response that is output from the balance to an input command
Cautions:
1. Communication texts (1) through (3) can be used through the RS232C output.
2. Only output data (1) can be used through the peripheral unit output.
12.4 Output Data
When the functions of the balance main unit are switched over, the following formats may be
selected. (See “9. Functions of Function 1” on page 30.)
