Data Output
Your Factory scale is equipped
with a data interface for connecting
your choice of the following:
– Industrial printer
– Peripheral device (e.g., computer)
– Universal remote control switch
Printer
You can configure the print
functions to meet your individual
requirements by selecting the
corresponding menu code.
You can have printouts generated
automatically, or by pressing
p/[PRINT]; dependent on or
independent of the stability or time
parameters; with or without IDs;
and as standard or ISO/GMP-
compliant printouts.
ISO: International Organization
for Standardization
GMP: Good Manufacturing Practice
See the section on "Data Output
Functions" in the chapter entitled
"Operating the Scale" for a detailed
description of data output options.
Interface Port
Instead of a printer, you may choose
to connect a different peripheral
device, e.g. a computer (PC). With
an on-line PC you can control both
the weighing cell and the display
unit of the Factory scale.
Request messages are sent
via the interface to initiate functions
in the weighing cell and in the
display unit. Some of the functions
generate response messages.
See the section on "Data Output
Functions" in the chapter
entitled "Operating the Scale"
for a detailed description of the
interface port.
Error Codes
If you press a key that has no
function, or which is blocked
at a certain point in an application
program, this error is indicated
as follows:
– a double-beep is sounded as an
acoustic signal, and
– where necessary, a message is
displayed for 2 seconds in the text
line, after which the text line
returns to the previous display.
The response to an operator error
is identical in all models of the
Factory series. See the chapter
entitled "Error Codes" for a detailed
description.
