■ Built in PING utility.

■ High-speed provides fast file transfers;

approximately 20 times faster than serial.

■ Check scale status from headquarters.

■ IP/Gateway addressable (scale can be routed

through multiple LAN’s).

ADVANCED WIRELESS FUNCTIONS

■ Automatic card recognition (including MAC
address).

■ Automatic connectivity detection.

■ Signal Strength bar graph with the Link Test.

WIRELESS BENEFITS

■ Less cable issues.

■ Less full service case wiring.

■ Clean look; no cables to hide.

■ No trip hazard.

■ Reduced installation labor.

■ Less re-engineering of the wiring infrastructure

for store re-models.

■ Less cracked, corroded or damaged cables.

■ Greatly reduced number of failure points.

■ No need to reconnect a scale that has been

moved in the store.

■ Operators cannot disconnect the scales, which
helps ensure pricing integrity.

WORKS WITH LEADING
SOFTWARE PACKAGES
