Fig. 2 DS100 Rear Panel
Power connections
The DS100 is powered from a wall mounted transformer. The transformer has a
power cord which plugs into the power jack located on the back of the scale. A
strain relief is provided to the left of the power jack. The power cord can be
looped around the strain relief to prevent accidental unplugging.
RS-232 Connections
The DS100 has a standard RS-232 output. To use this feature, the optional RS-
232 cable (P/N DSOPT001 or DSOPT002) is required. To access the RS-232
terminals at the rear of the scale, remove the rear panel from the indicator as
shown in Figure 2.
Insert the cable conductors by placing a small flat blade screw driver into the
terminal slot and then push the handle of the screw driver upwards towards the
top of the indicator. This forces the terminal below to open. Insert the conductor
into the terminal and remove the screwdriver.
