Introduction
The PC-150 Digital Bench Scale is a com-
pact, 150 lb (70 kg) capacity bench scale
with display and five function keyboard. It
comes standard with a bright LED screen for
easy readout, a removable stainless steel
platform, and an RS-232C serial communi-
cation port.
The scale can be configured to display its
divisions in two separate modes – non-
NTEP mode and NTEP mode. The scale is
shipped from the factory configured in non-
NTEP mode. The NTEP mode is supplied
for scales that need to comply with Hand-
book 44 requirements. To re-configure the
scale, please refer to the “Setup Menu
Mode” section of the manual.
The PC-150 uses full duplex RS-232C serial
format for communication with personal
computers or remote displays. The unit can
transmit data on demand or continuously in
several popular data protocols.
The scale’s serial communication parame-
ters are altered through the User menu The
“User Menu Mode” section of the manual
explains how to use the five front panel keys
to maneuver and save settings in this menu.
