摘要 |
The invention relates to a method for determining the state of a force measuring device (200), particularly a weighing device, and to a suitable force measuring device comprising at least one force measuring module (244) having a load cell (210) and a communication means (248), and further comprising a terminal (206) and at least one communication line (212), via which communication signals (c) can be transmitted between the terminal (206) and the communication means (248). According to the invention, at least one electric potential (Vs) present on the communication line (212) and/or on the communication means (248) is measured, the at least one measurement value (M) and/or the processed results (R) thereof are transmitted via the at least one communication line (212) to the terminal (206), and from this a parameter of the state of the force measuring device (200) is determined. In this way, a state determination is achieved in a precise and simple manner. |
