4.0 DT210 STANDARD FEATURES
The DT210 is easy to use yet it is able to solve many complex applications. This ease of use in
the face of complexity is managed by the DT210's STANDARD FEATURES.
The DT210 communicates via it's 8 character NUMERIC display, 16 character ALPHA display,
and it's 60 position KEYBOARD.
The NUMERIC display is used to display weight information, and as an adjunct to the alpha
display.
The ALPHA display is used to prompt the operator for input and for displaying data.
The KEYBOARD is the primary data input device. It is divided into 4 sections:
1. The top row of keys are PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTION keys. They can be
changed to fit the application at hand.
2. The second row of keys are FIXED FUNCTION keys. They are used for various test
and maintenance functions.
3. The CONTROL keys are found on the second row of keys and on the bottom row of
keys. They control the operation of the DT210.
The SCALE INTERFACE permits the DT210 to be used in a wide range of weighing
applications.
The PRINTER INTERFACE is used to print transaction tickets and summary reports.
