4.1 SICS interface commands
The device supports the command set MT-SICS (METTLER TOLEDO Standard Interface
Command Set). With SICS commands, it is possible to configure, query and operate
the scales from a PC. SICS commands are divided up into various levels.
4.1.1 Available SICS commands
In the case of Levels 0 and 1, these are commands which, if implemented, will
function identically with all METTLER TOLEDO scales or weighing terminals.
In addition there are also further interface commands which apply either to the entire
product series or to the particular application level. This and further information on the
MT-SICS command set may be found in the MT-SICS Manual (Order Number
22 011 459 or at www.mt.com) or be obtained by request from your METTLER
TOLEDO customer service representative.
Command Meaning
LEVEL 0 @ Reset the scale
I0 Inquiry of all available SICS commands
I1 Inquiry of SICS level and SICS versions
I2 Inquiry of scale data
I3 Inquiry of scale software version
I4 Inquiry of serial number
I6 Inquiry of weighing parameters
S Send stable weight value
