      Precautions when connecting to and using with a balance. [Weighing Environment Logger] [AD-1687]

      If the AD-1687 receives data from the balance in a format that cannot be processed, "Communication Error" will be displayed on the AD-1687.

      If such an error occurs, please check the following settings.

      1. When connecting the balance and the AD-1687, make sure to connect the RS-232C cable to the AD-1687 while the power is off.
      2. For the balance's "data output" settings, change "data number", "ID number", and "data/time" to "no output".
        * The factory settings for the balance have "no output" set by default.
      3. Change the balance's "data format" setting to something besides "CSV format".
      4. Confirm that "baud rate" and "bit length, parity" are the same for the balance and the AD-1687.
