If output on demand is selected, the user may optionally configure the serial output
as a choice of 3 styles of form, either in a default format or in one of two custom
formats. Each of the custom formats can be configured to output up to 15 lines of
data. The data types that can be printed are:
NAME TEXT PRINTED
ID number ID no.: xxxxxxxxxxxx
Serial number Serial no. xxxxxxxxxxxx
Date DATE dd/mm/yyyy
Time TIME hh:mm:ss
Net weight Net: xxx.xxx g
Gross weight Gross: xxx.xxx g
Tare weight Tare: xxx.xxx g
Unit weight Unit wt: xxx.xxx g
Count Count: xxxx pcs
Reference weight Ref. wt: xxx.xxx g
Percent Percent: xx.xxx %
Checkweigh lower limit Low: xxx.xxx g
Checkweigh upper limit High: xxx.xxx g
A blank line printed <CR><LF> only.
Any of these can be printed on any of the 15 lines available. Not all items need to be
used and any one can be used more than once.
The data for each form will be preceded by a start-of-header <SOH> character (01)
and terminated with an end-of-transmission <EOT> character (04). These characters
will be ignored by a serial printer but will allow a computer program which reads the
data to distinguish between this block report format and the single-line output
format described above.
