Scales are often used to monitor a specific industrial process. A tank may be placed on a scale platform, and based on its weight, liquid may be pumped into or out of that tank. Feeders and batching equipment are also often controlled by weight parameters. But this weight monitoring and control is not necessarily happening at the same location as the scale.

Arlyn Scales has introduced an Ethernet module which can be connected to any of our professional scales. Using this module, the scale may be connected to a local area network (LAN) at that location. Arlyn can also provide, as part of this application, “Remote Indicator” software, which is a Windows based application that reads scale information on any computer with Internet access.

This software can also export weight data into an Excel spreadsheet or an Access database file. A utility is also available that will import the scale information into any other Windows-based application.

The Ethernet Module also allows the user to control the scale remotely from any PC. Different commands can be sent for most of the scale’s front panel switches, including tare, net and gross, and units of measurement.
