Digital Scale is a measuring device that reads and displays the weight of an object. Unlike an analog balance scale, a digital scale is a high-quality scale that gives a more correct weight reading.
If you have a fruit or butcher shop, our system now can connect your digital scaling to our system, which is when your customer weight their shopping amount and digital scaling create a barcode, the barcode now can be scanned directly at the checkout. So do not need to manually input it.

Digital Scale Configuration Function:
1. Digit :
In this digit field, there are 2 configurations, namely by filling in the numbers "zero" or as much digit/number as in the digital scale label. If we fill with 0 then the digital scale will not be activated. As the picture above, we fill it with 13, means the configuration is set to a sticker label with 13 digit barcode.
2. Quantity Divider :
This is used as a division or calculation of commas in heavy quantities.
3. Regex (Regular Expression)
A regular expression is a sequence of characters that specifies a search pattern. Usually such patterns are used by string-searching algorithms for "find".
Example :
Regex | Description |
\d{1} | The regex will skip the first 2 digit |
(\d{6}) | The regex will capture the next 6 digit |
(\d{6}) | The regex will capture the next 6 digit |
