5.10 Setup group 7
In this group, you enter the settings for communicating with a com-
puter/scanner or for operating the scale in a scale network (integrated
operation function).
The integrated operation function can only be enabled with a network

license. Please contact your sales representative.
5.10.1 Connect the scale to a computer.

The computer connection lets you download item data and formats from
the computer or upload them to the computer for further processing.
Please contact your sales representative.
5.10.2 Connecting a scanner

To quickly and accurately read in PLUs, you can use a scanner.
To connect a scanner to the scale, please contact your sales repre-
sentative.
5.10.3 Integrated operation in a scale network

You have an extensive range of cold cuts and cheese and want to set
up more than one scale on the counter. A network of up to 10 scales
lets your vendors enter items on several scales and then complete the
transaction on one of the scales used. In this case, one of the scales
functions as the master, all the others are slaves. The item data and
settings are transferred from the master scale to the slave scales and
are therefore available to all scales.
The integrated operation function saves your vendors time and lets you
serve your customers faster.

Required accessories • 2 scales can be connected directly with a commercially available
CAT5 cross cable via the Ethernet interface.
Setup
• For a network of more than 2 scales, a hub must be used.

• If scales in an existing network need to be connected to other com-
puters, then the network mask and IP address must be coordinated
with the network. Ask your network administrator.

Configure scale 2 and 1. On scale 2, select setup point 702 and confirm with the asterisk
