9.2.2 Baud Rate Selection
The baud rate range is 300 to 9600 and is adjusted by setting one of six jumpers on the board TPB-1670. Only
one jumper may be installed at any time.
Jumper Baud Rate (bps)
JP-1 1200
JP-2 2400
JP-3 9600
JP-4 4800 (default)
JP-5 300
JP-6 600
9.2.3 Data Format
The following table describes the default RS-232 data format:
Type Setting
Data bits 7
Parity bit even
Stop bits 1
To change the RS-232 data format, press MODE to enter program mode, then press and hold REZERO and
enter 2 3 2. Use the + and – buttons to toggle between selections for the data, parity, and stop bits parameters.
Press * to store the selected value and advance to the next parameter.
9.2.4 Data Output Format
Each output data frame consists of a number of data fields. Each data field consists of an identifier character
(header), the information data, and a termination character return (). The header of each field describes
the subsequent data up to the carriage return character. The line feed () is used as the end of record
indicator. Data output can be set for continuous data stream or for output by pressing the * key (default
setting).
Valid data fields for standard operation mode:
Header Information Data Termination Char.
<3>
<0>
<1>
<4>
<2>
9.2.5 Data Input Format
Input can be selected with or without headers. The default setting is with headers. Valid input data fields are
ID Code, Unit Weight, and Tare Weight. Headers are used to identify the type of data input to the scale. If
headers are not used, the data input is assumed to be ID Code. Valid input data is the same as the output data
in Section 9.2.4.
