Terminal [hex] - Examples:
Performing direct read and write operations with the instrument address set to “01”. Empty spaces in the
example commands are only for a good pattern recognition; Use the commands without spaces.

Activating tare
Calculate check sums:
1. Load a 16–bit register with FFFF hex (all 1’s). Call this the CRC register.
2. Exclusive OR the first 8–bit byte of the message with the low–order byte of the 16–bit CRC register, putting the result in
the CRC register.
3. Shift the CRC register one bit to the right (toward the LSB), fill a zero into the MSB. Extract and examine the LSB.
4. (If the LSB was 0): Repeat Step 3 (another shift). (If the LSB was 1): Exclusive OR the CRC register with the polynominal
value A001 hex (1010 0000 0000 0001).
5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 until 8 shifts have been performed. When this is done, a complete 8–bit byte will have been
processed.
6. Repeat Steps 2 through 5 for the next 8–bit byte of the message. Continue doing this until all bytes have been processed.
7. The final contents of the CRC register is the CRC value.
8. When the CRC is placed into the message, its upper and lower bytes must be swapped as described below.
