14-3 Using Windows Communication Tools (WinCT)

When Windows is used as an operating system in a personal computer, the WinCT software, that is downloaded from the A&D website, can be used to transmit the weight data to the personal computer.

The WinCT has two communication methods: “RsCom” and “RsKey”.

RsCom

Can transmit commands to control the balance.

Can make bi-directional communication between the balance and a personal computer using the RS-232C serial interface.

Can display or store the data using a text file format. Can also print the data using a printer connected to the personal computer.

When several ports of a personal computer have balances connected, can communicate with each balance simultaneously.

Can share a personal computer with other application software.

RsKey

Can transmit the weight data output from the balance directly to other application software such as Microsoft Excel.

Can be used with most application software.
