DS
Display step size
[ Register = 2216, Type = Int32 ]
This command allows the output to step up or down by a step size other than 1. Permitted values
are 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200.

Result
DS S+00002
Request: display step size 2
CE
E+00017 (example)
Request: TAC-counter CE 17
CE_17 OK
Calibration sequence active
DS_50 OK
Setting: DS = 50
DP
Set decimal point position
[ Register = 2214, Type = Int32 ]
This command allows the decimal point to be positioned anywhere between leftmost and right-
most digits of the 5-digit output result. Position 0 means no decimal point.

DP_0 OK
Setting: no decimal point
CZ
Set calibration zero point
[ Register = 2212, Type = Int32 ]
This is the reference point for all weight calculations, and is subject to TAC control.

Zero point set
Factory default: approx. 0 mV/V input signal
CG
Set calibration gain (span) value
[ Register = 2206, Type = Int32 ]
This is the reference point for calibration under load, and is subject to TAC control.
Permitted values are 1…262143.

Result
CG G+20000
Request : span 20000d
CE
E+00017 (example)
Request: TAC-counter CE 17
CE_17 OK
Calibration sequence active
CG_50000 OK
Setting: span 50000d
Factory default: 200000 d = 2.000 mV/V input signal = 20 kg
For calibration an input signal near the display maximum (CM) will give the best system
performance. The minimum calibration load of at least 20% is recommended.
