EN-2 RS232 Interface
SETUP
A) The OHAUS Interface is preset to communicate using the following settings: 9600 baud, 8 bit,
no parity, no handshake. Determine the RS232 parameters required for the printer or computer
that is to be connected. See computer or printer documentation if assistance is required. If the
parameters do not match, it will be necessary to change either the scale’s settings, or the
computer / printer settings.
B) Upon installation of the interface, the scale will recognize the RS232 Interface and add relevant
items to the menu. Configure the scale to the desired RS232 and printing parameters; refer to
the scale User Manual for assistance in using the menus.

CONNECTION
The RS232 Interface Kit cable terminates with a 3 pin Sub-D female connector.

RS232 Interface EN-3
OPERATION
RS232 OUTPUT
With the Adapter installed the balance will operate in one of the following three ways:
Auto Print = off, Stable = on or off
Pressing PRINT will send the display data.
If Stable is set to On, the balance will wait for a stable reading before sending data.
Auto Print = not off, Stable = on or off
The balance will automatically send data based on the settings in the Menu.
If Stable is set to On, only stable values will be sent.
Data sent from the Interface is in standard ASCII format terminated with a [CRLF] (carriage return-
line feed). The output format is as follows:
[weight] 9 characters (right justified)
[space] 1 character
[unit] 5 characters max (left justified)
[space] 1 character
[stability indicator] 1 character “?” when unstable, blank when stable
[space] 1 character
[G/N] 1 character
