Tare at start ( p-tr )  
When a hopper is attached to the weighing pan and loss-in weighing is performed, the remaining 
amount of the material will become unknown if tare is performed each time a weighing starts. 
When "p-tr 0" is selected, tare is not performed at weighing start. So, the remaining amount of the 
material can be monitored when the power is turned on.   
 
10-5  Description of the Item “Data output mode” 
The parameter setting of the “Data output mode ( prt )” applies to the performance when the “Data 
memory ( data )” parameter is set to “2” (to store the weighing data) and when the data is transmitted 
using the RS-232C interface. 
Notes 
  Data output to the RS-232C is not available when the BCD output (OP-01) is installed. 
  BCD output is refreshed at the display refresh rate. 
 
Key mode 
When the PRINT key is pressed or the external PRINT contact input is used, with the stabilization 
indictor on, the balance outputs or stores the weighing data and the display blinks one time. 
Required setting 
dout
 
prt 0 Key 
mode 
 
Auto print modes A and B 
When the displayed value is stable and the conditions of “Auto print polarity”, “Auto print difference” 
and reference value are met, the balance outputs or stores the weighing data.   
When the PRINT key is pressed with the stabilization indictor on, the balance outputs or stores the 
data and the display blinks one time. 
Mode A:  Required setting 
dout prt 
Auto print mode A (reference = zero) 
 
dout ap-p 
Auto print polarity 
 
dout ap-b 
Auto print difference 
Example “With 
“ar-d 1” (to adjust zero after data is output), for weighing the 
added sample each time a sample is added.”
 
Mode B:  Required setting 
dout prt 
Auto print mode B (reference = 
  
 
 
 
  last 
stable 
value) 
 
dout ap-p 
Auto print polarity 
 
dout ap-b 
Auto print difference 
Example 
“For weighing while a sample is added.”
 
 
Stream mode 
The balance outputs the weighing data continuously regardless of the display condition. The display 
does not blink in this mode. This mode is not available and the interval memory mode is used when 
the “Data memory ( data )” parameter is set to “2” (to store the weighing data). 
Required setting 
dout prt 
3 Stream 
mode 
 
dout data 
Data memory function is not used.

“For monitoring data on a computer” 
 
Caution 
The balance may not transmit the data completely at the specified refresh rate, depending on 
the baud rate or data added to the weighing data such as time, date or ID number.
