To connect your Essae AX Series balance to a PC or peripheral device, you must use a standard 6-pin Mini-DIN connector on the balance side, wired to a 9-pin 'D' Type (DB9) connector on the computer side.

The balance supports multiple data transfer protocols configured via parameter "C11 LSD":
- Stream Mode (Continuous output)

Ensure your PC software matches the scale's baud rate exactly. Note: Any changes to RS232 settings require a power cycle (OFF/ON) to take effect.
