Advanced Systems & Designs, 600-22-OHAUSDISC-MTI, FlashCable Gage Interface for Ohaus Discovery Analytical Balance
Features:
- Digimatic output FlashCable gage interface for the Ohaus Discovery Series Analytic Balance
- Sends data to GageMux gage interface or devices that recognize the Digimatic signal
- Several options to send data from the Balance
Send data to GageMux gage interface.This FlashCable gage interface is engineered to change the output on the Ohaus Discovery Semi-Micro Analytical Balance to an output in a Digimatic format. The 9-pin male connector on the FlashCable gage interface connects to the female connector on the Ohaus Discovery Series Balance. This FlashCable gage interface is designed to work with GageMux or other devices that recognize the Mitutoyo Digimatic signal.
The FlashCable does not obtain any power from the gage. The GageMux gage interface provides the power to the FlashCable. If using devices other than the GageMux gage interface, pin 9 of the 10-pin connector needs to provide 5VDC power to the FlashCable gage interface.
When the FlashCable interface cable is properly connected to the GageMux, the LED on the FlashCable turns GREEN. The LED will briefly turn RED when data is sent or a data request is triggered from the GageMux gage interface.
The data transfer can be triggered using any of the following methods:
- Using the PRINT key on the Ohaus Discovery Balance
- Using the Footswitch on the GageMux USB or equivalent triggering method
- Using 300-1S in-line handswitch
- Using a Footswitch on the FlashCable (not included)
- Sending a gage read command from the computer to the gage
A detailed operation manual is provided with this FlashCable gage interface. The communication parameters on the Ohaus RS232 interface must match the communication parameters on the FlashCable gage interface. The factory settings on Advanced Systems & Designs FlashCable gage interface are normally set to the default settings on the Ohaus Discovery Series Balance. Refer to the Ohaus Discovery Balance instruction manual for more information on external communication. Six foot standard cable length.
