Reading Of Decimals And Number Of Divisions
The PC transmits:
$aaDckckCR
$01D45CR
Possible instrument responses:
• Correct reception:
&aaxy\ckckCR
• Incorrect reception:
&&aa?\ckckCR
Tare Weight Zero Setting
The PC transmit the following ASCII string containing the zeroing command:
•
$aazckckCR
$01z7BCR
;
in which:
z
= weight zeroing command (122 ASCII)
Possible instrument responses:
• Correct reception:
&aaxxxxxxt\ckckCR
• Incorrect reception:
&&aa?\ckckCR
• If the instrument is not in gross weight displaying condition, the response is:
&aa#CR
Example:
Weight zero setting for instrument with address 2:
For the calibration, make sure that the scale is empty and the instrument measures a corresponding mV signal.
query:
$02z78(Cr)
response:
&02000000t\76(Cr)
For a correct weight zero setting the read value (response) must be 0 (in the string 000000).
The zero values are stored to the EEPROM memory. Please note that the number of writes allowed is limited
(about 100000). If it is necessary to reset the weight quite often, it is recommended to perform it by PC or PLC
program, keeping in mind the weight deviation respect to the zero instrument.
