Receiving Data From the Scale Using the Immediate Print Mode
The immediate print command “#” causes the scale to transmit whatever number or message appears in
the scale display. The value is formatted as shown below:
+/- 1 2 3 4 5 6 . c0 c1 c2 c3 CR LF
The first six digits represent the number field. A + or - sign always precedes a weight reading, and a deci-
mal point is always transmitted, though their exact location depends on the number transmitted. Numbers
with less than six digits are preceded by spaces and the sign is always adjacent to the leading digit. The
specific location of the decimal point depends on the precision of the number transmitted.
“c0” is the speed mode character.
