8.2. Built-in RS-485 Interface

The RS-485 interface can use command to control the indicator. The interface can read weighing data or parameters or store parameter to the indicator.

The interface can connect max. 32 units and a personal computer in a communication cable.

These unit is specified by address appended to the command.

The way of Use and Note

When use terminator, connect between SDA and SDB terminals with accessory resister.

If there is not signal ground at host computer, it is not necessry to use the SG terminal.

If the shield cable is used, connect the FG teminal to shield line.

When connecting to RS-232C, Use AD-7491 or converter of RS-232C/ RS-485 on market.

Use multi-droped connection for command mode.

Do not use multi-droped connection in stream mode or jet stream mode.
