Rice Lake MSI-7300 Dyna-Link 2 - Manual (Page 41)

Communication Setup 37
6.2 Printer Setup
The RS-232 comm port is capable of outputing tension data. All the weight modes the
Dyna-Link can measure are available in user formatted form. The control mode
program is what causes the Dyna-Link 2 to print.
• USER – the assigned F-Key is pressed, then one transmission of the selected
string type is output.
• On Load – when the tension on the link is stable, one transmission will output,
then the tension must return to zero to enable another print to output.
• Continuous – program the interval in seconds up to 65,535 seconds.
Setting the interval to 0 will set an interval as fast as the system can go. To disable
printing, simply don’t program an F-Key to print and set the control to “USER” or
turn the control mode to “OFF.”
