Interface Port
Purpose
The indicator is equipped with the
following data interfaces:
– Standard COM1 and COM2 interfaces
– optional: UniCOM universal data
interface (see "Accessories").
Both interfaces can be configured in
the Setup program (see "Configuring
the Combics") for different input/
output functions. For example, you
can connect a printer, Alibi memory,
PC, remote checkweighing display,
or second weighing platform to a COM
port, or configure the port for control
command input (e.g., for using a foot
switch). The optional UniCOM interface
can be used for Profibus-DP, RS-232,
RS-485 or RS-422 communication, or
as a voltage/current (analog) interface.
A bar code scanner or an external
rechargeable battery pack can be
connected to the female UniCOM port
(on CW3S models, use the
corresponding terminal screws).
Features
Built-in standard COM1 and COM2
ports, plus option for installing a
UniCOM universal data interface:
– CW3P indicator (IP44 protection):
Connect via a 25-contact D-Sub
female connector.
If you wish to connect a second device
to an interface port, a T-connector is
required (see "Accessories").
– CW3S indicator (IP67 protection):
Route the connecting cable from the
peripheral device to the indicator via
a cable gland. Then connect the free
ends of the cable using the terminal
screws.
If you wish to connect a second
peripheral device to the same interface
port, use a separate cable gland to route
the connecting cable of this device into
the indicator and connect the free ends
of the cable using the terminal screws.
!
Warning When Using Pre-wired
RS-232 Connecting Cables
RS-232 cables purchased from other
manufacturers often have incorrect
pin assignments for use with Sartorius
weighing systems. Be sure to check
the pin assignments against the chart
in this manual before connecting the
cable, and disconnect any lines
identified differently from those
specified by Sartorius. Failure to do so
may damage or even completely ruin
your indicator and/or peripheral device.
