2.2 Command format
General advice:
Commands can be entered in upper or lower case letters, they are not case-sensitive, so
either format can be used for input.
Each command entry must be concluded by a delimiter. This can either be a line feed (LF) or
a semi-colon (;).
If an end label is all that is sent to the WE2107, the WE2107 input buffer is cleared.
The data provided in round brackets () for the commands are mandatory and must be
entered. Parameters in pointed brackets <> are optional and do not have to be provided.
The brackets themselves are not part of the input.
Text must be enclosed in quotes ” ”.
Responses are given in ASCII characters and terminate with LF. Output in binary characters
is the exception here (see command MSV or COF).
Each command comprises the command shortform, one or more parameters and the end
mark.
Responses consist of ASCII characters and close with CRLF. An exception to this is binary
character output (see MSV and COF commands).
Each command consists of the command shortform, one or more parameters and the
delimiter.
Command shortform Parameter End label

Input ABC X,Y LF or ;
Output ABC? X,Y LF or ;
LF: line feed (lf = 0a hex)
Example: MSV?;
After this command, a measured value is output.
All the ASCII characters ≤ 20H (blank) can appear between the command short form, the
parameters and the end mark.
For commands and parameters the following characters are allowed:
’ ’ ’+’ ’-’ ’.’ ’,’ ’”’ ’0’ ...’9’ ’A’...’Z’ ’a’...’z’
For a input string (command PST) the input range is : 0x1fhex < char < 0x7fhex . In this case
the string is enclosed with ” ...string...”.
NOTE
If the master has send a command string (query), than the master has to wait for the answer
before it send the next query.
If the master has send a command string (input), than the master has to wait for at least
10 msec. before it send the next query or command.
HBM WE2107
2.3 Responses to commands
NOTE
Note on the reaction times of the WE:
The reaction times specified for the WE in the command description do not include the time
taken to transfer the command to the WE and the time taken to transfer the response from
the WE.
2.3.1 Responses to input
The WE works in an RS-485 2-wire bus configuration. No responses are given to input, re-
gardless of whether the input is valid or invalid. After making an entry, use a query to ver-
ify the input.
Example:
ASF3; //Setting the filter to level 3
If the master has send a command string (input), than the master has to wait for at least
10 msec. before it send the next query or command.
ASF?; //query the last input command

before it send the next query or command.
NOTE
If the parameter is a legal for trade parameter, and the legal for trade mode is switched
on, than this parameter will not be changed.
WE2107 HBM
2.3.2 Responses to parameter queries
A parameter query is entered by using the command with a question mark attached.
A parameter query is always answered in ASCII format. The end label is a line feed
(LF = 0A hex).
The output length of a query is always constant for every command.
Example:
Query: ASF;
Response: 03 crlf
before it send the next query or command.
2.3.3 Responses to incorrect or unknown commands
The WE does not respond if a command is incorrect or unknown
HBM WE2107
2.4 Output types for measured values
The response to measurement queries (MSV?) depends on the output format (COF) that is
set (binary or ASCII output). Data output works with fixed output lengths (see command
COF):
Example:
Format command WE2107 response No. bytes

COF0; MSV? Yy CR LF (y- binary) 4
COF2; MSV? Yyyy CR LF (y-binary) 6
LF: line feed (lf = 0a hex), CR: carriage return ( = 0d hex)
The end mark of the data output is always a line feed. However, this character must not be
filtered out as an end mark during binary output, as these characters may also be included in
the binary code of the measured value. Which is why only the byte count is helpful with bi-
nary output.
2.5 Password protection parameters
WE password protection includes the important settings for the scale curve and its identifica-
tion. Commands with password protection are only activated after the password has been
entered. Unless the password is entered via the command SPW, this command input will not
be executed. A query is always possible.

3 Individual command descriptions
3.1 Interface commands (asynchronous, serial)
To establish communication between the WE and the computer, the interface has to be confi-
gured. The following commands are available in the WE to set up the interface and to select
the transfer format:
D Communication address for bus mode ADR
D Baud rate setting BDR
D Output format for measurement data (ASCII / binary) COF
D Select command for a bus user via the communication address (Select) S...
Characteristic data of the serial interface:

Start bit: 1
Word length:8 bits
Parity: none / even
Stop bit: 1
Baud rate: 1200 … 38400 baud
The asynchronous interface of the WE is a serial interface, i.e. there is serial transfer of data,
bit by bit and asynchronously. Asynchronously means that transmission works without a
clock signal.
A start bit is set in front of each data byte. This is followed by the bits of the word (D0...D7), a
parity bit for transfer checking and a stop bit.
1 bit Word length = 8 data bits 1 bit 1 bit
Start Parity Stop
1 character
Fig. 1: Composition of a character
HBM WE2107
As data transmission is serial, the rate at which data is transmitted must match the rate at
which it is received. The number of bits per second is called the baud rate.
The exact baud rate of the receiver is synchronized with the start bit for each character
transferred. The data bits then follow, which all have the same length. On reaching the stop
bit, the receiver moves to the wait state until it is reactivated by the next start bit.
The number of characters per measured value depends on the output format selected (COF
command).

Parameter backup With command TDD1;
Input Master ADR(P1),<“Fnumber“>; No response
Query Master ADR?;

Response WE P1crlf P1=2 characters
Note: ( ) required parameters, < > optional parameters for parameter input
Function:
You only need this command when the WE is communicating via the RS-485 bus. The
command is used to prepare bus mode. Each WE connected in the bus must have a unique
address (00 - 31).
Parameter description:
Input: ADR(new address), <”serial number”>;

The serial number (7 digits) can be included as an optional second parameter. The new
device address will then only be entered for the WE with the specified serial number. When
several WE’s have the same address (initializing bus mode), this allows the device
addresses to be changed without addressing several WEs.
As with the command IDN?, the serial number has to be specified in quotation marks.
Example: S98; Broadcast command
ADR25,”0000007”; allocates a new address,
only the WE with serial number 0000007
changes the address
Example: S31; Selecting the ’old’ address (example)

Reaction time <15 ms
trade
Input Master BDR P1,<P2> No response
Query Master BDR?;

Response WE P1, P2crlf P1=P2= 1 character
Function:
The command sets the baud rate for serial communication.
NOTE
When the baud rate is changed, communication is not possible at first. The computer also
has to switch over to the new setting (baud rate). For the change in the baud rate to be per-
manent, it has to be saved in the EEPROM using the command TDD1. This procedure ensu-
res that the baud rates set in the WE are all supported by the remote station. If the newly
entered baud rate is not saved, when the system is reset or started up again, the WE will
answer at the previous baud rate.
Example: BDR?; 3,1crlf corresponds to 9600 baud, parity bit even

Example: BDR4; WE responds at 19200 baud
Example: BDR3; WE responds at 9600 baud,
Parity is unchanged

Note on the evaluation of binary measured values
When measurement data is output in binary format, the binary code for CRLF may occur
within the bytes representing the measured value. This is why the contents of the data output
should not be tested for the CRLF character when checking for the possible end of
measurement transmission. With binary output, it is far better to record the number of
characters received. The CRLF control characters are also appended to the measured value
during binary output.

3.2 Factory default curve
The commands described in this section are used to set up the factory default curve:
D Adjusting the default curve: SZA, SFA
D Gravitational acceleration correction: ACA, ACU
Setting the characteristic curve

The WE works initially with a factory default curve SZA, SFA. This factory default calibration
is made with a calibration standard for 0mV/V and 2mV/V (=200000 internal digits). This
factory default curve should not be modified.
A second characteristic curve (LDW, LWT) is available for the scale adjustment.
The gravitational acceleration correction is then activated via command ACA and ACU, if the
place where the scale was adjusted is not the same as the place of installation and the
gravitational acceleration factors are different.

P1 is a 6−digit decimal number in the range 10000 to 120000 (=10 % ... 120 %). With

P1 is a 6-digit decimal number in the range 10000 to 99999 (=10 % ... 120 %) for none legal
for trade applications.
P1 is a 6-digit decimal number in the range 20000 to 99999 (=20 % ... 120 %) for legal for
trade applications.
P1 is the percentage of the max. capacity with which the next LDW / LWT adjustment is to
be carried out.
P1:= 100000 * adjustment weight / max. capacity
Example:
The scale curve LDW/LWT of a scale is adjusted with 15 kg=15000 d. But the only
adjustment weight available for the adjustment is a 10 kg weight. Proceed as follows:
1. For the adjustment, set the CWT value to 66667 ( corresponds to 66 %).
2. For the adjustment, set the NOV value to 15000.
3. Then carry out an LDW/LWT adjustment.
After the adjustment, the WE outputs 10000 digits as the measured value at 10 kg and
15000 digits at 15 kg.
4. Set the increment to RSN5 and the decimal point to DPT3. This gives the number of
divisions as 3000 d=e and a display of 15,000 at 15 kg max. capacity.
NOTE
After an adjustment, the LDW and LWT values can be read out. They correspond to
parameters, as if the adjustment had been carried out at max. capacity (and not at partial
load). Should you want to enter the values for LDW and LWT again later, you must first enter
CWT=0, then the LDW value that has been read out and finally the value read out for LWT.
When the factory default curve is entered with SZA/SFA, this resets the user curve to the
default values LDW=0, LWT=200000 and CWT=100000.

Function:
The command selects a digital filter. This influences the filter behavior of the WE

The limit frequency of the filter determines the settling time. The higher the filter index, the
better the filter effect, but also the longer the settling time when the weight changes. Choose
as low a filter setting as possible, but one that ensures measured value rest (standstill) when
the weight does not change.
The mean-value calculation influences the overall settling time of the WE. The overall settling
time also depends on the mechanical construction of the transducer, the dead load of the
scale and the weight to be weighed.

Query Master MSV?;
Response WE See description
Function:
As previously defined, the measured value is output in ASCII or binary format (see
commands COF, NOV and RSN). The maximum extent of the measured values is:
For 2-byte data output: integer ±32767
For 4-byte data output: long integer ±399999
For ASCII data output: ASCII ±399999
The length of output depends on the output format (see COF command).
The output format for a measured value must be defined before the measurement run. The
measured value is output in relation to the particular measuring range (NOV). The measured
value can be a net or a gross measured value (TAS).
HBM WE2107
Preparing for data output

1. Use the COF command to define the output format
2. Use the NOV command to define output scaling
3. Use the RSN command to define display resolution
4. Use the DPT command to define the decimal point position
5. Use the MRA command to define the mode of operation
6. Use the FMD command to define the digital filter mode
7. Use the ASF command to define the digital filter
The output scaling is defined by the parameter of the NOV command.
Output format measured value at max. capacity NOV w 100

ASCII NOV value
With 2-byte binary output, the NOV value must be v 30000, otherwise the measured value
will be output with overflow or underflow (7FFFH or 8000H, H: hexadecimal). With
NOV30000, the overload reserve is only about 2700 digit.
The measured value is stored in the output buffer independently of the measurement query.
Binary output:
The length specification includes the end label (CR, LF).
With 4-byte output, the measured value is a 3-byte value. The fourth byte is the
measurement status
COF Length Sequence for data output

COF0 4 bytes MSB before LSB
COF1 4 bytes LSB before MSB
COF2 6 bytes MSB before LSB (LSB = status)
COF3 6 bytes LSB before MSB (LSB = status)

LFT=0: -160 x NOV .... + 160 x NOV (cannot be verified, industrial mode)
LFT=2: -2 % ... + NOV + 5 % (legal for trade, NTEP)
NOV is the output scaling (NOV>100). The percentage figures relate to the NOV.
The decimal point DPT only takes effect for ASCII output.
The d information relates to increment that is set (RSN):
RN=2 -> 9 d = 18 digits (d).
HBM WE2107
Measurement status
In 4-byte binary output, the measurement status can be transferred with the measured value
(see command COF). The measurement status is coded bit by bit.

3.8 Commands for legal for trade applications
The commands are used to monitor parameter changes made to parameters Relevant to
legal for trade via the standard counter:
D Calibration switch LFT

D Calibration counter TCR?
The parameters Relevant to legal for trade are:

SZA, SFA, ACA, ACU, CWT, LDW, LWT, NOV, RSN, MRA, MRB, MDT, ENU, DPT, LIN,
LIM, ZSE, ZTR, LFT, TCR
If the calibration switch is set to LFT>0, it is not possible to make changes to parameters Re-
levant to legal for trade. Before changing parameters relevant to legal for trade, activate
the password (DPW, SPW) and set LFT to zero. Every LFT change increases the calibra-
tion counter (TCR) that cannot be reset by 1.
After calibration, set LFT to a value greater than zero. Then read out the calibration counter
and make a note on the identification label of the scale.

Cycles of dosing:
D Start dosing (external input/button/command RUN), if the bin is empty,
start the time monitoring (MFT), deactivate the ready signal (OUT1)
D Tare ( if activated with TAD>0, switch to NET)
D Start coarse flow (activate OUT2)
D If the weight is equal or above the coarse flow disconnection point then stop the coarse
flow (deactivate OUT2)
D Wait for the residual flow time (RFT)
D Final measurement: If standstill occurs the filling result will be stored (FRS), the total
weight (SUM) will be calculated and the dosing counter (NDS) will be incremented
D If the parameter EPT>0 the output OUT3 will be activated for the emptying time
D Stop the time monitoring (MFT), activate the ready signal (OUT1)
D Short message in the display ‘READY’ (for 3 sec.)
The target weight of the dosing process is in the parameter LIV2_ON_level

The coarse flow disconnection point is the parameter LIV2_OFF_level.
If the dosing result is out of the tolerance (LIV3_ON/OFF_level) then the alarm output
(OUT4) will be activated. The result is OK if the equation is valid:
LIV3_OFF < = FRS < = LIV3_ON
If the dosing result (FRS) is out of the tolerance the optimization function will change the
parameter of the disconnection point (LIV2_OFF_level)
Diff:= LIV2_ON_level – FRS (target weight – dosing result)
Diff1 := Diff * correction factor
LIV2_OFF_Level := LIV2_OFF_Level + Diff1
The correction factor depends:

|Target weight / FRS| <2% 2…4 % >4 %
* 100
Correction factor 0.25 0.5 1.0
If the dosing time exceeds the maximum filling/dosing time (MFT) the process stops
immediately and the alarm output (OUT4) becomes active.
During the dosing process the BRK stops the process immediatly.
The start will not be done if the actual gross weight is above a limit (LIV4_OFF_level)

4 Communication examples
4.1 Making settings for bus mode
The WE is able to work with up to 32 modules in a bus. The prerequisite for this is that each
WE is connected to the bus by an RS-485 interface driver. Each WE operates as a slave,
that is to say, without being prompted by the bus master (e.g. PC or PLC) the WE will remain
inactive on its transmission line. The master selects a WE by using the select command, S...
(S00...31;). This is why it is essential, before the bus coupling, to enter a communication ad-
dress for each WE. Of course, each address in the bus must only be assigned once.
4.2 Connecting WE’s to the bus
There are two possible ways to connect the WEs to the bus:
Connecting WEs to the bus consecutively
1. Connect the first WE to the bus line (factory default:: ADR31, baud rate=9600Bd, even)
2. Initialize the master interface at 9600 Bd, 8, e, 1.
3. Use the command ;S31; to select the WE.
4. Use the ADR command to set the required address (e.g. ADR01;)
5. Use ;S01; to select the WE with the new address.
6. Use the command TDD1; to store the address power fail safe in the EEPROM.
7. Connect the next WE to the bus, call it with ;S31;, set ADR02;,
8. etc.
All the WE’s are connected to the bus
1. Read off the production numbers of the WEs (7-digit)
(1st WE: xxxxx, 2nd WE: yyyyy, etc.).
2. Initialize the master interface at 9600Bd, 8, e, 1.
3. Select all the WEs by using the broadcast command ;S98; .
4. Use the ADR command to set the required addresses one after the other
(e.g. ADR01,”xxxxx”; ADR02,”yyyyy”; etc.).
5. Use the command TDD1; to store the addresses power fail safe in the EEPROM.
NOTE
With S98; none of the WEs respond; but each WE executes the command. If there is no
communication, either the address or the baud rate are wrong.
Once all the addresses have been set and the baud rate is unified, the bus is ready for
operation. Now you must specify how the measured values are to be read out.
WE2107 HBM
4.3 Setting the data output
For data output using the command MSV?; the output format must previously have been set
in all the modules. To do this, proceed as follows:
1. Enter the broadcast command ;S98;
All the WEs execute the command, but do not send a response.
2. Use the COF command to specify the output format
(e.g. COF4; for ASCII output)
3. Use the command TDD1; to save the setting power fail safe in the EEPROM.
HBM WE2107
4.4 Setting the baud rate
The WE can work at different baud rates. The setting can only be changed via the serial in-
terface by using the BDR command.
Of course in bus mode, the baud rate of all the connected users must be the same. To make
sure that the WEs in a bus are always safely set to the required baud rate on initialization
(power-up) of the hardware (in this example 9600 = BR0), proceed as follows:
1. Set the baud rate of the master interface to 9600Bd, 8 data bits, 1 parity bit (even) and
1 stop bit.
2. Output the following commands in the sequence in which they appear below:
; Clear the WE input buffer
S98; Select all the WEs on the bus
BDR0; Set the required baud rate
Then wait about 150 ms.
3. Set the baud rate of the master interface to 19200Bd, 8 data bits, 1 parity bit (even) and
1 stop bit.
4. Output the following commands in the sequence in which they appear below:
S98; Select all the WEs on the bus
BDR0; Set the required baud rate
Then wait about 150 ms.
5. Set the baud rate of the master interface to 9600Bd, 8 data bits,
1 parity bit (even) and 1 stop bit.
6. Enter the blank command to clear the input buffer:
7. Use the command TDD1; to save the settings power fail safe in the EEPROM. .... etc.
WE2107 HBM
NOTE
It is essential to output the semicolon before the command S98;, as controlling the WE at
different baud rates may result in undefined characters in the WE input buffer. These
characters are rejected when the semicolon is received.
With S98; none of the WEs respond; but each WE executes the command.
In the example given above, all the WEs on this bus are set to the baud rate 9600Bd,
whatever their previous settings.
Of course, it is also possible to set a different baud rate. To do this, provide the required
baud rate in the command BDR and modify the initialization of the master interface
accordingly.
Transfer time at the interface
The baud rate is the speed of transfer of the interface. This does not change the number of
measured values that the WE determines every second.
A high baud rate merely allows a greater number of WEs to be queried per time unit in bus
mode.
Baud rate Transfer time for one character

9600 1.1 ms
19200 0.57 ms
With this information, it is possible to roughly estimate the transfer time for a command
sequence. To do this, establish the number of characters in the command and multiply it by
the transfer time. In addition to this, the WE has a processing time (reaction time) for each
command. You will find these times in the individual command descriptions (total time =
transfer time + processing time).
HBM WE2107
4.5 Determining bus occupation (Bus Scan)
It is often useful, each time the bus is enabled or if WE responses are missing, to determine
the bus configuration. Use Bus Scan to determine bus address occupation. The prerequisite
here is for all the modules to be set to the same baud rate. Carry out the bus scan as follows:
1. Initialize the master interface with the set WE baud rate
2. Scan an address with the following command sequence:
;S00; Select address
ADR?; Query address
The WE addressed by this address responds with an 00LF If there is no response after
about 100ms, there is no WE at this address. If the master receives undefined characters
or does nor receive an ?-character, there may be a bus malfunction or multiple address
occupation. The bus master must respond accordingly.
3. Repeat Number 2 with the following addresses 01...31.
If there are only a few WEs connected with known addresses, the bus scan can naturally
relate to these addresses only. If all the WEs are successfully established as bus users, the
WE identification string may be read in (identification = production number).
The time-out setting for the master interface driver is crucial for the speed of the bus scan.
The select command needs a maximum 20ms to output at 9600 baud. The WE does not
respond to this select command.
WE2107 HBM
4.6 Measurement query in bus mode
In the previous sections of this example, all the WEs have been prepared for bus mode and
bus scan has found all the connected WEs. For simple measurement query with the MSV?;
command, the output format has been set with the COF command. Now start the measure-
ment query with the following command sequence:
S00; MSV?; the WE with address 00 responds with the measured value
S01; MSV?; the WE with address 01 responds with the measured value
etc.
Master com- Reaction time Response WE Note

mand
S00; MSV?; 9 characters
max 15 ms
Xx crlf 4 characters for COF0,
or
xxxx crlf 6 characters for COF3,
or
xxx...xxx crlf 18 characters for COF4
Which results in the following query times, for example:

Baud rate Output format Query time measured value for an WE
9600 COF0 28 ms
19200 COF0 22 ms
9600 COF3 30 ms
19200 COF3 25 ms
9600 COF4 45 ms
19200 COF4 31 ms
These times should only be used as a guide.
HBM WE2107
4.7 Setting a parameter in all the connected WE’s
If the measurement query is executed properly, the parameters can be set in all the WEs
connected at the bus. Proceed as follows:
1. Select all the WEs by entering the broadcast command S98;
All the WEs execute the command, but do not send a response.
2. Enter the required parameters.
3. Use the command TDD1; to store the parameter power fail safe in the EEPROM.
4. Use Sii; to select the next WE, to read control parameters, for example.
This sequence can also be used when taring with the TAR; command, for example, or for
changing over between gross and net output.
