FAD - 4 DIGITAL LOADCELL JUNCTION BOX 02.05.00 FAD4_2RM 2 13 of 20
Master transmission: (SETUP 2)
STX ADD S 2 a bb cc BCS2 BCS1 ETX
a : Slave address (A - Z)
bb : Baudrate : 24 = 2400 baud 96 = 9600 baud 19 = 19200 baud
38 = 38400baud 57=57600baud 11=115200baud
cc : Data bits / parity : 17 = 7 data bits even parity 08 = 8 data bits, no parity.
Slave response:
STX ADD ACK or NAK BCS2 BCS1 ETX
New settings of baud rate , data bits and parity are not in effect until a write command ‘W’ is issued.
T : TARE
Tares the weight on the scale and switches the FAD-4 to net weight mode.
Master transmission:
STX ADD T BCS2 BCS1 ETX
Slave response: NONE.
Execution of the command should be checked by examining the next status string.
W : WRITE TO EEPROM
Writes setup, parameters, setpoint values, calibration data to EEPROM and resets slave.
Master transmission:
STX ADD W BCS2 BCS1 ETX
Slave response: NONE.
WARNING : The max number of write cycles allowed is 100.000.
Z : ZERO SCALE
Sets the scale to zero if zero conditions are met (stable weight within 2% of scale capacity) .
Master transmission:
STX ADD Z BCS2 BCS1 ETX
Slave response: NONE.
Execution of the command should be checked by examining the next status string.
