Description Of The Item "Data Output Mode"
The parameter setting of "Data output mode (
prt
)" applies to the performance when the "Data
memory (
data
)" parameter is set to "
2
" (to store the weighing data) and when the data is
transmitted using the RS-232C interface.
Key mode
When
the
key is pressed with the stabilization indictor turned on, the balance outputs or
stores the weighing data and the display blinks one time.

Auto print modes A and B
When the displayed value is stable and the conditions of "Auto print polarity", "Auto print
difference" and reference value are met, the balance outputs or stores the weighing data.
When
the
key is pressed with the stabilization indictor turned on, the balance outputs or
stores the data and the display blinks one time.
Auto print mode A
Example
For
weighing
each time a sample is placed and removed, with "
ar-d
" set
to "

Stream mode
The balance outputs the weighing data continuously regardless of the display condition. When the
display refresh rate is set to 5 times / second (5pd 0), the data output rate is also set to the same
5 times / second. The display does not blink in this mode. The interval memory mode is used
when the "Data memory (
data
)" parameter is set to "
1
" (to store the weighing data).
