Using the XE Serial Command The XE serial command can be used to remotely query the 920i for the error conditions shown on the front panel. The XE command returns a decimal number representing any existing error conditions. For multi-scale applications, the value returned by the XE command represents all error conditions, if any, present on all configured scales.
10.2 Regulatory Mode Functions The function of the front panel keys depends on the value specified for the REGULAT parameter TARE ZERO on the FEATURE menu. Table 10-4 describes the function of these keys for the NTEP, CANADA, OIML, and NONE regulatory modes.
