Product Description
Mettler Toledo PL Model Portable Balance Digimatic FlashCable®
Send data to our GageMux® multi-input gage interface
This ASDQMS FlashCable® gage interface is engineered to change the output on the Mettler Toledo PL Portable Balance to an output in a Digimatic format. The 9-pin male connector on the Advanced Systems & Designs FlashCable® interface cable connects directly to the 9-Pin female connector on the Mettler Toledo PL Portable Balance.
Designed to work with our GageMux® universal gage interface or other similar devices that recognize the Mitutoyo Digimatic signal. The FlashCable® does not obtain any power from the gage. When connected to the GageMux®, pin 9 of the 10-pin input port provides the power to the FlashCable® gage interface. If using devices, other than the GageMux®, make sure pin 9 of the 10-pin connector provides a 5vDC supply to the FlashCable® interface.
When the FlashCable® is connected to the GageMux®, the LED on the FlashCable® turns GREEN. This indicates that the FlashCable® is connected properly. The LED turns RED when the data is being sent or a data request is triggered.
The data transfer can be triggered using any of the following methods:
-
Using the PRINT button on the Mettler Toledo PL Portable Balance
-
Using our 300-1S in-line handswitch
-
Using a Footswitch on the FlashCable® (not included)
-
Using the Footswitch on the GageMux® USB (or equivalent triggering method on similar devices)
-
Sending a gage read command from the computer to the gage
A detailed operation manual is included with this FlashCable® gage interface. Advanced Systems & Designs normally sets the FlashCable® interface cable to the default settings on the Mettler Toledo PL Portable Balance. Make sure both the Mettler Toledo Balance and FlashCable® gage interface are set to the same values. Refer to the Mettler Toledo PL-E Portable Balance operating instructions for more information on external communication.
