Registers 24 through 39 may contain eight doubleĆinteger Setpoint

values. The Setpoint values must be specified with the same implied

decimal point as the Indicated Weight from the Indicator. The values

are first stored in registers 24 to 39. Then register 23 must be set to a

nonĆzero value to initiate the update in the Interface. The Interface

software will set register 23 to a zero value after the update is

complete. Setpoint values may be changed at any time, but you must

to set register 23 to initiate the update. The Setpoints are initialized to

zero on powerĆup.

4.1.2

Toledo Scale Data Registers

The Toledo Scale status and weight data registers contain the data

transmitted from the Toledo Scale digital indicator. All registers are

readĆonly with the exception of register 64.
Register 64 is used to initiate an update of registers 65Ć77. In order to

read the scale data (status and weight), first set the request/status

register to a value of one. Next, monitor the register for a value less

than or equal to zero. A value of zero indicates valid data which may

be read by the BASIC task. A negative value in the request/status

register indicates an error condition. Refer to figure 4.6 for an

explanation of error codes for register 64.
Data is received continuously by the module. The data is placed in

dual port memory only when requested via the request/status

register (register 64). The data that will be stored in dual port memory

will be the last valid message that was received by the module.

Registers 66Ć77 are not updated if an error status is returned.
