OPERATION

RS232 OUTPUT
With the Adapter installed the balance will operate in one of the following three ways:

Auto Print = off, Stable = on or off
Pressing PRINT will send the display data.
If Stable is set to On, the balance will wait for a stable reading before sending data.

Auto Print = not off, Stable = on or off
The balance will automatically send data based on the settings in the Menu.
If Stable is set to On, only stable values will be sent.
