SERIAL PRINT COMMANDS
The Serial port on the 750 is a bi-directional port and can receive and transmit data. It can
output to a printer as well as communicate to a computer. Using the serial port, it is possible to
control the printing operation of the 750 by transmitting commands to the indicator.
Journal Mode Print Command
The host device (computer) sends:
<LF> P <CR>
The ticket will be printed (or data transmitted) in the following format:
Weight, BMI, Height
Where:
Weight: xxx.xuu G
BMI: xx.x
Height: x' xx.x”
IMPORTANT! If ID or BMI are disabled, the field will be left out.
Recall Data Queue Command
The host device (computer) sends:
<LF> XS <CR>
The 750 will Recall the Data Queue. The data will be transmitted in the following format:
ID, Weight, Units, Mode<cr><lf>
Where:
ID = xxxxxxxxxxx Up to 11 digit ID number
Weight = xxxxxx.x Six digits with decimal point
Units = uu None, lb, kg, oz, g, st
m = Mode G = Gross
cr = Carriage Return (hex 0D)
lf = Line Feed (hex 0A)
NOTE! Recalling the data queue does not delete the current data. The separate delete
command must be sent to clear the queue.
Delete Data Queue Command
The host device (computer) sends:
<LF> XD <CR>
The 750 will Delete the Data Queue.
Serial Print commands operate the same as pressing the Down Arrow (
)/PRINT
key. They allow multiple printings, but will only store the values once until the
weight goes below the 1/10 of scale capacity threshold.
