PROTOCOL SERIAL COMMANDS

‘bG’ Command — Write Current Output Tracking Mode
This command is sent by the master to set the current output test mode of an STXplus. The
range of acceptable values is 0-1 where 0 for current output tracks gross weight or 1 for current
output tracks net weight. For this example, the master sets the current output tracking mode for
an STXplus at address 01 to 1 (tracking net). Any of the 6 leading zeros may be omitted.

‘tJ’ Command — Read Current Output Value in Counts
This command is sent by the master to request the STXplus to send the current output value in
counts. The range of acceptable values is 0-65535 where 0 corresponds to the minimum
current output available and 65535 corresponds to the maximum current output available. For
this example, the master requests the current output value for an STXplus at address 01 which
returns 7843 and a checksum of 66.

‘bJ’ Command — Write Current Output Value in Counts
This command is sent by the master to set the current output value of an STXplus. This can only
be done if the current output test mode is enabled (see command “tI/bI”). The range of
acceptable values is 0-65535 where 0 corresponds to the minimum current output available and
65535 corresponds to the maximum current output available. For this example, the master sets
the current output value for an STXplus at address 01 to 11219 assuming that the test mode is
enabled. Any of the leading zeros may be omitted.

Example

‘GI’ Command — Read Setpoint Deadband Value
This command is sent by the master to request the STXplus to send the setpoint deadband
value. Acceptable values for setpoint number is 1 and 2. The range of this value can be between
0 and 2,147,483,647. The default value is 10. For this example, the master requests setpoint 1’s
deadband value for an STXplus at address 01 assuming it is using a format of 4(X.XX), which
returns 347.51 engineering units and a checksum of 32.
