The transmitted string is in standard ASCII format. The functions required for this “print”
output command are:
Pbut or R.INP - one of these functions must be set to O.put. When the selected remote
input is shorted to ground or the P button is pressed a single serial string of the value
selected will be transmitted.
O.Put - this function must be set to POLL. When set to POLL the instruments serial
communications can operate as either a “print” output or in the conventional polling
mode.
SERL - this function sets the value to be transmitted when using “print” output operation.
The options are:
LiuE (live reading), the value sent will be the live input value determined from the
calibration scaling and the level of the electrical input from the load cell or sensor.
tARE (tare), the value sent will follow the tared value when a remote input or P
button has been used to tare the display.
P.HLd (peak hold), the value sent will be the peak value whilst the peak hold operation
is in progress i.e. When a remote input is being used to cause a peak hold display.
The value will be reset when the P.HLd remote input is deactivated.
d.HLd (display hold), the value sent will be the held display value whilst the display
hold operation is in progress i.e. When a remote input is being used to cause a
display hold. The value will be reset when the d.HLd remote input is deactivated.
Hi (peak memory), the value sent will be the peak value in memory. This can be reset
by activating the Hi remote input or P button for 2 seconds or by removing power
to the instrument.
Lo (valley memory), the value sent will be the lowest value in memory. This can be
reset by activating the Lo remote input or P button for 2 seconds or by removing
power to the instrument.
dISP (display value), the value transmitted will be whatever value is on the display
at the time of a “print” operation.
HiLo (peak, valley memory), the values sent will be the peak value in memory followed
by a comma followed by the lowest value in memory. These can be reset by activating
the HiLo remote input or P
Example:
To make the serial “print” output send the peak held value using remote input as the peak hold
remote input and the P button as the “print” input:
1. Set the R.INP function to P.HLd
2. Set the Pbut function to O.Put
3. Set the O.Put function to POLL
4. Set the SERL function to P.HLd
Whilst the remote input terminal is short circuited to the GND terminal the display will show the
peak held value. When the P button is pressed a single serial string showing the peak held value
will be transmitted.
