Installation The EtherNet/IP Interface hardware consists of a dual-board option card. EtherNet/IP-specific functions are provided by a EtherNet/IP module, which is factory-installed onto a bus adapter card. The bus adapter card plugs into an open option card slot on the 920i CPU board (or expansion board) and provides power and access from the indicator bus to...

Commands Commands are used by the EtherNet/IP master device Decimal Command to send and receive data from the EtherNet/IP Enter Tare 0x00C Interface as integer or floating-point data. The master sends eight bytes in the output format (used to write 0x00D Acquire Tare commands to the indicator) and reads eight bytes in...
Status Data Decimal Command Indicator status data is returned in the second word 0x128 Read Peak (float) (see Table 3-4). Batch commands return batch status in place of the low byte (see Table 3-5). Setpoint 0x130 Set Setpoint Value (float) commands return batch status in the low byte of the 0x131 Set Setpoint Hysteresis (float)
Command Descriptions Command 11 causes the tare weight on the specified scale to be displayed. If a scale number other than 0 is NOTE: For all commands that require a scale number, a value specified, the indicator first causes the specified scale of 0 indicates the current scale.
