12.6 Control with Commands
The balance can be controlled from the outside with external commands. The following six
different control commands are available:
1

Δ
: Space
2 Output
control
setup
(O0–OB)
3
Date output request
(DD)
4
Time output request
(DT)
5 Interval
time
setup
(IA)
6
Span adjustment/test command (C0–C4)
Annotation in parentheses denotes the command main body.
1. Command transmission method
(1) A command is transmitted to the balance from an external unit. Since the communication
(transmission and reception) is implemented in full-duplex mode, the command can be
transmitted regardless of the data transmission timing from the balance.
(2) When the balance has executed a received command, it sends back an “executed” response or
the data requested with the transmitted command. If the command could not be executed, or
the received command was ineffective (error), the balance sends back an error-end response.
When the balance is in normal display mode, it usually transmits a response within one second
following the command transmission. If the balance receives a command while it is being
operated (e.g., when a function is being set, span adjustment is in progress), the balance will
send back a response after that operation has ended.
(3) When the balance receives a command from an external unit, do not transmit a next command
until a response has been received from the balance.
