22 COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL
General information
A. A character based communication protocol balance-terminal is designed for
establishing communication between a RADWAG balance and peripheral
devices via RS 232 interface.
B. It consists of commands sent from a peripheral device to the balance and
responses from the balance.
C. Responses are sent from the balance on each receipt of a command as a
reaction to a specific command.
D. Commands forming the communication protocol enable obtaining data on
balance’s status and influencing its operation, e.g.: request measurement
results from the balance, zero indication, etc.
