- STX:
- Start of transmission character (ASCII 02).
- ETX:
- End of transmission character (ASCII 03).
- SIGN:
- The sign of the weight reading (space for positive, dash (-) for negative).

- S1:
- Displays G/N/U/O/E representing Gross/Net/Underload/Overload/Error, respectively.
- S2:
- Displays M/^ representing Motion/Stable, respectively.
- S3:
- Displays Z/^ representing centre of Zero/Non-Zero, respectively.
- S4:
