The Communication with a LSQ series scale can be throught a RS232 serial connection or Ethernet LAN
connection (if there is at the scale). Communication protocol is the same for both cases. This protocol will be
explained.
FRAME
Communication for writing or reading is formed by frames. Each frame is divided in command, data and
several controls characters.
All the bytes transmitted into the frame are printable characters, with the following execeptions.
0x09 – TAB
0x0A – LF
0x0C – FF
0x0D – CR
0x1B – ESC
NOTE: All the numeric data fields must be transmitted in ASCII format.
COMMAND
The command has alway 12 characters. The first 6 characters are the memory address of the record that we
make reference to. All the addresses begin at 0. The character number seven corresponds to the action that you want
to take. The character number eight represents the group of data to write or read. The last four characters are used for
special functions.
Character Seven.
G – Write
L – Read
E – Special functions
Character Eight.
P – PLUs
p – Prices
V – Agents
T – Taras
I – Ingredients
F – Formats
f – Date and Hour
t – texts
C – configuration
In many cases memory address can be ignored for it’s not matther for the command.
26
END
As frame length is variable, it’s necessary to finish the frame with a carrier return(ASCII 0x0D). That is to know
there is not more data in the frame.
SYNCHRONIZATION
WRITTING. When data are sending to the scale, the PC always begins the connection. It sends a command
and data with the required action and the scale recieves the frame and processes it.
READING. When data are reading from the scale, the PC always begin the connection. It send a command
with the required petition. The scale recieves the frame and processes the command. The scale responds with
the same command and required data.
REPORTS. When you need to obtain a report from the scale, the PC always begins the connection. It sends a
command with the required report. The scale recieve the frame and process the command. The scale
responds with the same command and required data. One report can need many frames until to end, the scale
sent to the computer all the frames necessary to end the report. The final frame can be identified by the word
“END” in the final command.
