17.1.1  Connecting the Cable 
ATTENTION: 
By using the RS-232C/AUX interface of the PBS/PBJ type balances it is also 
possible to output other signals than RS-232C ones.  Incorrect connection of those 
signal cables may lead to the personal computer or balance failure.  Therefore, make 
sure that the suitable and correctly connected cable provides communication 
between the balance and computer. 
Some types of computers may not operate normally when they are connected by 
using the optional RS-232C cable in the way shown in the below figure. 
(1) IBM PC/AT computer and compatible (9-pin D-sub connector) 
(2) IEEE standard (D-sub 25-pin)
