Retail scales with Ethernet interface

Ethernet

— standard connector for wired connection to local computer networks. With Ethernet, the balance can operate as a network device; this gives more connectivity options than the RS-232 interface. Thus, access to the device can be obtained from any computer of the network (with appropriate access rights settings), and vice versa, several scales can be “linked” to one control computer. Among the disadvantages of such a connection is the need for a router/switch for the operation of network equipment.
