Data Input Formats
Commands can be input via the balance interface port to control the
balance functions.
Control commands are distinguished according to those with upper-case letters,
or special characters, and those with lower-case letters.
Format for Control Commands
Control commands can include up to 13 characters.
Each character must be transmitted with a start bit, a 7-bit ASCII-coded character,
a parity bit and one or two stop bits.
You can define the parity, baud rate, handshake mode and the number of
stop bits by programming the respective codes in the balance operating menu
(see page 35).
