Follow the steps below. Refer to the figures when performing these steps.
For installation of RS232 option only,
1. Plug the RS232 communication cable into the 3-pin socket on the
communication board.
Note: If the scale is powered with rechargeable battery, plug the RS232 cable into
the same location on the communication PCB board, and keep the extra PCB
board as a backup for future use.
2. Open the battery compartment, insert the communication board into the slot
on the left side of the battery compartment and press it firmly.

3. Organize the communication cable and snap it into the upper card slot, and
pull it out from the rear direction along the edge of the dry battery to clamp the
O-ring on the communication line to the U-shaped notch.
4. Close the battery cover.

3.1 Setup
The OHAUS Interface is preset to communicate using the following settings: 9600
baud, 8 bit, no parity, no handshake. Determine the RS232 parameters with PC
that is to be connected.
Upon installation of the interface, the scale will recognize the RS232 Interface and
show relevant items in the user menu.

3.2 Connection
The RS232 Interface Kit cable terminates with a 3 pin Sub-D female connector.
Active pins: Pin 1 = Ground, Pin 2 = RXD, Pin 3 = TXD
The Interface connector will connect directly to a PC.

EN-5
3.3 Operation
RS232 Output
Data sent from the Interface is in standard ASCII format terminated with a [CRLF]
(carriage return-line feed). The output format is as follows:
1) 0FMT (default)
2) 1FMT
Note: The unit field length varies with different units
3) 2FMT
SIG: Weight symbol. When weight is positive, SIG is "space", and ASCII code is
20H; when weight is negative, SIG is a minus, and ASCII code is 2DH.
For example: weight is 1.000kg
