Standard is a setting for use in specific wireless and wired scale networks. Low Power
will significantly improve the wireless battery life for all non-‘host’ scales (maximum number
of scales in this mode is 32).
Current Loop is used when connecting to older legacy PT300 scales. The legacy cables
(part #’s 100488, 100489, or 100490) must be used when in this communication mode.
See section titled “Totalizing/Printing in Current Loop Mode” for more information.
When scales are not part of a totalizing network, battery life will be improved if “nonE
