The SCALE INTERFACE permits the DT210 to be used in a wide range of weighing
applications. The weigh meter interface is connected to the DT210's serial channel 1 input.
Channel 1 can accept 2 types of input: RS232 or CURRENT LOOP.
The DT210 uses the weight from the scale for:
1. Display the weight on the scale.
2. Display the calculated net weight.
3. For calculating, printing, and storing weigh transactions.
The DT210 monitors the status of the scale and displays the status in the following form:
<Blank status> -- Scale data valid.
-M- -- Scale in motion.
OVR -- Scale overload.
NEG. -- Weight below 0.
-I- -- Scale status = inhibit.
-U- -- Received units differ from configured units.
-G- -- Scale not in gross mode.
CBY -- Count-by error.
