Re:Connecting a Weighing Scales to the AS/400

     Sorry folks,
     
     I got the model number on the IBM weighing scales wrong.
     
     The IBM Weighing scales that I'm looking for info on is a model number
     7593.
     
     If anyone is using one of them then please let me know.
     
     Thanks again,
     
     Frank.

     Hi Folks,
     
     I have a client that wants to connect an Industrial Strength Weighing 
     Scales to their AS/400. They currently are feeding data from their 
     Shop floor devices into a PC (Using software called DCS 2, I think ?)
     
     Now I don't claim to know anything about this, however I have been 
     told that there is an IBM wieghing scales (a model 4595 I belive ??)
     
     In short ;
     1) Has anyone used any type of weighing scales directly or indirectly 
     connected to the AS/400 ?
     2) What problems could we encounter ?
     3) What Scales are currently in use out there and where can I get 
     advice on them ?
     
     Any help is appriciated as always either diect to

     Or via the mailing list.
     
     
     Thanks in advance,
