Operating Instructions Combics Indicators 99
Data Interfaces
The indicator is equipped with the following data interfaces:
– COM1: Standard data interface (RS-232)
– UniCOM: Universal data interface (optional)
Both interfaces can be confi gured in the Setup menu for different input and output
functions (e.g. printer, 2nd weighing platform, PC, checkweighing). The optional
UniCOM interface can be used as an RS-232, RS-485/RS-422, analog output
(voltage/current interface), galvanically separated digital I/Os, Profi bus or Ethernet.
A barcode scanner can be connected (Combics 2 only) via the PS/2 socket or the
corresponding screw terminals (IP69K).
Features – CAW*P indicators (IP44 protection):
Connect via a 25-pin D-Sub female connector.
– CAW*S indicators (IP69K protection):
Route the connecting cable from the peripheral device to the indicator via
a cable gland. The free cable ends are connected via the screw terminals.

Warning when using third-party RS-232 connecting cables: The pin assignments
may not be compatible with Sartorius equipment. Check the pin assignment
against the cabling diagrams and disconnect any lines that are not assigned. Fail-
ure to do so may cause malfunction, damage or even completely ruin your indica-
tor and/or peripheral device(s).
