Connecting, Configuring and Testing the Printer/Computer Interface

Use the built-in RS-232 Port to connect either to a computer or a printer.
If connecting to a computer, use HyperTerminal or similar software like SPDC described
below.
(Find HyperTerminal under Accessories/Communications in Windows XP.)
Connect to the computer with a standard (straight-through) serial cable.
Choose New Connection, "connect using" COM1 (or available COM port).
Select Baud=9600; Parity=8 None; Stop=1; Handshaking=None. Click OK.
Choose Properties/Settings, then ASCII Setup. Check boxes as illustrated:
(Send line ends...; Echo typed characters...; Wrap lines...)
Use RS232 Interface Commands (Section 9.6.1) to control the balance from a PC.
Note: When the HyperTerminal configuration is complete, it will automatically
print the results of a Cal Test operation, and echo print commands sent to the scale.
SPDC Software
The Serial Port Data Collection or SPDC software is provided by Ohaus and can be used on
operating systems that do not have the HyperTerminal software mentioned above.
Choose the export file type and export file path and then press Run as shown below.
Note: The SPDC software only supports English language.
