Prn Port; Serial Commands Format - Vetek DGT Technical Manual

NOTE: It is advisable to have a maximum number of receptions per second equal to 10.
RECEPTION OF THE PR 1577 STRING ("Pr1577" parameter and FModE >> Func step set on rEPE)
-
If an instrument is connected which transmits the data with "Pr1577" protocol, the indicator repeats the data of
the display and the indication leds of the connected instrument.

6.4.3 PRN PORT

Please find below the various selectable serial weight transmission modes of the PRN serial port through the
corresponding "PrModE" StEP of the SET-UP environment.
- TRANSMISSION TO PRINTER ("tPr" and "LP542" parameter): requests the use of the print key on the indicator
(prints upon request of the operator). The print command is inhibited if the weight is in motion and in all other
circumstances in which the data is not valid (see "EXECUTION OF THE PRINTOUTS" section, USER
MAN.REF.).
- CONTINUOUS TRANSMISSION ("ALL.Std" and "ALL.EHt" parameter): see the "ALL.Std" and "ALL.EHt" modes
of the PC port.
- TRANSMISSION OF THE PC STRING UPON PRESSURE OF THE PRINT KEY ("PrPC.St" and "PrPC.EH"
parameter): see the "Prin.St" or "Prin.EH" mode of the PC port
- 4 – 6 DIGIT REMOTE DISPLAY TRANSMISSION ("rEPE.4" and "rEPE.6" parameter): see the "rEPE.4" and
"rEPE.6" mode of the PC port.
NOTE: In the MASTER/SLAVE functioning mode (see section 8.4 MULTISCALE REPEATER (MAStr), USER
MAN.REF.) only the transmission modes to the printer and the "rEPE.4" and "rEPE.6" transmission mode are
enabled for the printer port.
THE CONNECTION AND THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION OF THE SERIAL OUTPUTS MUST BE CARRIED
OUT BY TECHNICAL PERSONNEL WHO KNOW THE PROCEDURES ON THE BASIS OF THE NEEDS OF THE
USER.

6.5 SERIAL COMMANDS FORMAT

Version reading command
[CC]VER<CR LF>
Instrument response:
- DGT model
- DGT60 model
- DGTQ model
- DGTP model
in which:
Extended weight read command
[CC]REXT<CR LF>
Instrument response in the "IND.CH." mode or in the "DEP.CH" mode: EXTENDED STRING (see paragraph 6.6.2).
Instrument response in the "TRANSM." mode: MULTISCALE STRING (see paragraph 6.6.3).
NOTES:
- If the instrument is in the "IND.CH." mode (scale with independent channels) or in the "DEP.CH" mode (scale with
dependent channels and digitally equalized) the weight value is read relative to the active channel; to read the
values of the other channels (if configured) one has to switch each time onto the desired channel (see also CGCH
channel switching command).
- If the instrument is in the "TRANSM." mode (scale with independent channels) it is possible to read simultaneously
the values for all the configured channels
