MT-SIS
Purpose:
-
Perform the interface task with the Mettler MT-SIS weigh room scale for operations such as weight measurement, initialization, zeroing, and spanning.
Enter:
-
MTS-SIS [n=ASC events base name] {m=minimum weigh time] [t=maximum weigh time] [s=stability requirement]
[i=unique scale identifier]
Where:
-
n Optional. Specify the ASC events base name. The default is mettler. m Optional. Specify the minimum weigh time in seconds. The default is 5 seconds. t Optional. Specify the maximum weigh time in seconds. The default is 60 seconds. s Optional. Specify the stability requirement in micro-grams. The default is 5 micro-grams. i Optional. Specify the unique ID of the scale.
Example:
-
MT-SIS n=mettler s=5 &
The above example starts the MT-SIS task for a mettler scale, with 5 micro-grams as the stability requirement. The MT-SIS program starts an ASC task using mettler within the event names. The /cell/mettler.cfg specification file is also read for handling commands to and from the mettler scale.
Notes:
-
The program operates as a background service for continuous scale interaction.
