9. RS-232C SERIAL INTERFACE
This interface allows the EK/EW-
i
series to be connected with a multifunction printer or
a personal computer.
The RS-232C interface has the following four modes.
Stream mode
Outputs data continuously.
Key mode
Outputs data by pressing the PRINT key.
Auto-print mode
Outputs data which meets the conditions of auto-print.
Command mode
Controls the balance using commands from a computer.
Set the parameters of the data format (
bps
and
btpr
) and data output mode
(
prt
), as necessary.
Use a D-sub 9 pin cable (straight type) to connect with a computer.
Windows Communication Tools Software (WinCT) to communicate with a
computer is provided as freeware. Visit the A&D website to download WinCT.
