5.1 SICS interface commands

The terminal IND445 supports the command set MT-SICS (METTLER TOLEDO Stand- ard Interface Command Set). With SICS commands, it is possible to configure, query and operate the terminal from a PC. SICS commands are divided up into various levels.

5.1.1 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

SI Send weight value immediately

SIR Send weight value repeatedly

Z Zero the scale

5.1.2 Requirements for communication between scale and PC

• The scale must be connected to the RS232, RS485, USB or Ethernet interface of a

PC with a suitable cable.

• The interface of the scale must be set to "Dialog" mode, see Section 4.6.1.

• A terminal progam must be available on the PC, e.g. HyperTerminal.

• The communication parameters baud rate and parity must be set in the terminal

program and on the scale to the same values, see Section 4.6.3.

5.1.3 Notes on network operation via the optional interface RS422/485

Up to 32 scales can be networked with the optional RS422/485 interface. In network operation, the scales must be addressed from the computer before commands can be sent and weighing results received.
