Interface Description - Sartorius FC06BBE-S Operating Instructions Manual

Interface Description

Purpose
Your Factory scale comes equipped with
an interface port for connection to a
computer or other peripheral device.
You can use an on-line computer to
change, start and/or monitor the func-
tions of the scale and the application
programs. The interface port also has
four data output port lines for the
over/under checkweighing program.
A connector for a hand or foot switch
is also provided.
!
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
scales. Be sure to check the pin assign-
ment against the chart below before
connecting the cable, and disconnect
any lines marked "Internally Connected"
(e.g., pin 6). Failure to do so may
damage or even completely ruin your
scale and/or peripheral device.
