Note: If you want just the weight values (without leading spaces or the units) to be stacked in a column in Excel automatically each time you press the Print button, check the checkbox labeled "Filter Out Non Numeric Characters" and select the word "{DOWN}" from the "Postamble Keystrokes" dropdown list in the BC-Wedge window. The most common problem is a mismatch in the communications settings between the software and the scale.You could try setting the Parity to Even, the Data Bits to 7 and then try every different Baud Rate until you see data that looks correct. But only runs OnReport for about 20 times initially After Inital approx 20 runs on OnReport it never runs again, unless I remove usb cable and re-connect. This IIOT Edge device was recently released by Mettler Toledo allows you to connect up to 4 weigh scales to the box which then plugs into your network and exposes the data and commands via an OPC UA server (if you havent heard of OPC UA then check here ). All of the Mettler Toledo scales use a communication protocol called MT-SICS (Mettler Toledo Standard Interface Command Set) which is detailed here. Leave the software running. The tag is automatically reset to 0 (false) by the software. 33 0 obj << /Linearized 1 /O 35 /H [ 1172 234 ] /L 115846 /E 18406 /N 5 /T 115068 >> endobj xref 33 36 0000000016 00000 n PLEASE NOTE THIS BLOG HAS BEEN EDITED AFTER RELEASE TO ADD INFORMATION FOUND AFTER ITS RELEASE.

Would it be possible to do this using multiple scales with one PC? Note that if all 4 scales are RS232 then 3 must be plugged into the USB ports using serial to USB adapters. You should now see the server in the list of servers in the top left hand side of the screen, now click the connect Icon to connect to the server.
