Serial I/O Cable Installation

The 210 indicator may be connected to a printer to record weight and associated data or it may
be connected to a remote display or to a computer for transmission of weight data. The weight
data may be transmitted on demand (pressing the PRINT key or on receipt of a command from
the computer). Refer to the Setup, SIO Serial I/O section of this manual.
1. Remove the 12 acorn nuts securing rear panel to main housing and then loosen a gland
