20. COOPERATION WITH TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The standard design of the balances, includes temperature sensor TB-1,
which is used for temperature measurement of the liquid.
Connecting the temperature sensor to the balance is automatically
confirmed by a message <SnS on> visible on the display. Simultaneously,
the temperature value used during the process of sample weighing in
liquid is automatically acquired from the connected sensor.
Disconnecting the sensor is automatically signaled by a message
<SnS oF> visible on balance’s display. Simultaneously, the temperature
value used during the process of sample weighing in liquid is acquired
from parameter <P4.1. tcnP>.
21. COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL
21.1. General information
A. A character based communication protocol balance-terminal is
designed for establishing communication between a RADWAG
balance and a peripheral devices via RS 232 interface.
B. It consists of commands sent from a peripheral device to the
balance and responses from the balance.
C. Responses are sent from the balance on each receipt of a
command as a reaction for a specific command.
D. Commands forming the communication protocol enable obtaining
data on balance's status and influencing its operation, e.g.: request
measurement results from the balance, zero indication, etc.
