72 Counterpart Counting Scale Indicator
6.0 Serial Commands
The Counterpart can be controlled by a PC or remote keyboard connected to an indicator serial port. Control is
provided by a set of serial commands that can simulate front panel key press functions, display and change setup
parameters, and perform reporting functions. This provides the ability to print configuration data or to save to your
hard drive.
6.1 The Serial Command Set
The serial command set can be divided into five groups: key press commands, reporting commands, the
RESETCONFIGURATION special function command, parameter setting commands, and transmit weight data
commands. When a serial command is processed, the Counterpart responds with the message
OK. The OK response
verifies that the command was received and has been executed. If the command is unrecognized or cannot be
executed, the Counterpart responds with
??.
The following sections list the commands and command syntax used for each of these groups.
6.1.1 Key Press Commands
Key press serial commands simulate pressing the keys on the front panel of the indicator. These commands can be
used in both setup and normal (weighing) mode. Several of the commands serve as “pseudo” keys, providing
functions that are not represented by a key on the front panel.
For example, to enter a 15 lb tare weight:
1. Type K1 and press ENTER (or RETURN).
2. Type K5 and press ENTER.
3. Type KTARE and press ENTER.
