Communication Protocol - Health O Meter PRO PLUS 2101KL Manual De Instrucciones

PC Communication Protocol
This scale uses an escape protocol for communicating with a PC and over the USB and serial port 2
（serial port 1 : connecting to the printer）. In an Escape protocol, the escape (<esc> or ASCII 27) is
used to indicate that there is a command, and not data, following.
Two scenarios have been defined: Scale initiated communication and PC initiated communication. The
following is a table of what can be sent across the communications line.
Scale Initiated
Send Single reading
Send continuous
reading
Send bulk readings
Send Diagnostics
The following is a complete list of ESC characters that will be used:

We used descriptive characters to show the type of the parameters. These are: c=Character, n=Numeric. The
number of parameters indicates the set number of placeholders for these characters and numbers (i.e. Zccc
indicates that a value containing 3 characters will be given.)

This is the patient ID. (10 chars)
I Icccccccccc
Wnnn.nn This is the patient weight (i.e. W200.05 means 200.5 )
This is the patient height
H Hnnn.nn
T Tnnn.nn This is the TARE weight that the scale is taring out
B Bnnn.n This is the patient's BMI
This indicates that the end of the command/datapacket has

N Nc This indicates in which unit the values have been taken
(m=metric, c=constitutional)

J J
will be either a <ESC>O<ESC>E or <ESC>F<ESC>E or
<ESC>L<ESC>E
O O When prompted for a power status, this will indicate that the
scale is turned on
When prompted for a power status, this will indicate that the
F F
scale is turned off (or is in low power/sleep mode) When in Low
Power mode, the scale will return L
This is a time and date string (MMDDYYYYhhmmss)

This command has a parameter c, which will help doing the
U Uc
update of the firmware. First of all the PC will initiate the update
by sending an Ur (Request for update). The scale will reply with
Uc (Clear to send) or Ue (error, don't send). Then the scale will
send U127K or U127B (the length of the data that is following in
