Data Interfaces Data Interfaces Purpose Interfaces are used to exchange data with connected peripheral devices: Measured values and calculated values can be output to a printer or PC; conversely, control commands and data inputs can be sent to connected devices (PC, keyboard, foot switch, barcode scanner). Each interface has to be configured according to the peripheral device and desired function. No error messages are generated when no devices are connected to an interface port (open data port).
Data Interfaces USB Port (PC) Purpose 3 System Requirements Any Cubis balance can be connected to a PC equipped with a USB port. A virtual serial interface (virtual COM port) is set up as a device type at the USB port. This virtual serial interface is identified und operated by the application program. The protocols xBPI, SBI, and SICS can be transmitted via the USB port. The USB port is designed for the laboratory environment and is not suitable for use in rough industrial environments.
Data Interfaces Changing the Port Number Installation Guides for Windows XP®, Windows Vista® and Windows 7® and Windows 8® If you use the USB interface with a program that limits the number of COM port designations (e. g., only COM1, 2, 3, 4), you may have to assign one of these port numbers to the new virtual port. t Open the setting for the USB serial port in the Windows® Control Panel: – START > My Computer > Control Panel – System > Hardware > Device Manager t Open the Connections submenu.
