  • Page 31: Setting The Time And Date

    Setting the Time and Date If the time and date module is installed in the SP2200, you can set the time and date using either the switch module (if installed) or a serial input device such as a PC or ASCII terminal.
  • Page 32: Disabling Time And Date Printing

    Setting ID Codes If the switch module is installed in the SP2200, you can enter ID codes to be printed with weight data when the printer is in weight extraction mode. ID codes must be 8 digits in length and use only the digits 0 through 9 and the fol low ing char ac ters: colon, period, and space.
  • Page 33: Setting Id Codes

    Example: To enter a constant ID code of 487561, you would enter the following characters, pressing the SET button after each character. The ID code entered must be eight characters in length. Use leading zeroes or spaces for codes of less than eight characters. In the example below, the C characters are used to insert two spaces before the ID code.
  • Page 34: Setting An Incrementing Id Code

    Example 2: You can set an ID code to increment from any value entered as a constant ID code. For example, to set the SP2200 to increment through values of 100 to 99999, do the fol low ing: 1) Enter the starting value as a constant ID code: Because the starting value is also incremented, you must enter a value of one less than the fi...
