Master transmission: (PAR 2)
STX ADD P 2 aa bb cc BCS2 BCS1 ETX
aa :
Weight resolution (01, 02, 05, 10, 20, 50).
bb:
The first 2 digits of weighing range (00-99).
cc:
DUAL INTERVAL. The first 2 digits of the weighing range for which the lower weight
resolution will be selected automatically. 00 = DUAL INTERVAL NOT ACTIVE.
Slave response:
STX
ADD
ACK or NAK
BCS2
BCS1
ETX
A NAK block will be returned if some parameter is out of range.
Master transmission: (PAR 3)
STX ADD
P 3 a
b c d e f BCS2 BCS1 ETX
a :
Decimal digits (0, 1, 2, 3, 4)
b :
Autozero maintenance 0 = NO
1 = YES
c :
Autozero on power up 0 = NO
1 = YES
d :
Dual digital filter
0 = NO
1 = YES (The filter doubles when not in motion)
e :
Leading zero blank
0 = NO
1 = YES
f :
Reserved : always 0
Slave response:
STX

ACK or NAK
BCS2
BCS1
ETX
A NAK block will be returned if some parameter is out of range.
THE VALUE(S) ARE NOT SAVED IN EEPROM UNTIL A STORE COMMAND IS ISSUED.
p. UPLOAD
PARAMETERS
Used to upload weight parameters.
The parameter groups a b c d e f are identical with the “P” command.
Master transmission: (PAR 1)

BCS2 BCS1 ETX
Slave response:
STX ADD p 1 a b c d e f BCS2 BCS1 ETX
a : Conversions per sec : 1=8Hz/ n , 2=20Hz/ n , 3=40Hz/ n , 4=80Hz/ n. n=Nr of Loadcells.
MAXIMUM Conv/sec = 40Hz
i.e. the 80Hz with one loadcell is not acceptable.
b : Gain set.
0 = 2 mV/V , 1 = m4 mV/V , for each input (Deadload + Span).
c : Number of loadcells (1, 2, 3, 4)
d : Weight units
0 = kg
e : Digital filter (0, 1, 2)
0 = 1 , 1 = 2 , 2 = 4 samples.
f : No motion samples (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) consecutive conversions within 1e.
