BEETLE /iScale Hub _____________________________________________________________________ Introduction The BEETLE /iScale Hub is an expander rack for connecting scales to BEETLE POS systems. A plain scale can be attached to the weight module located in the hub. This module takes over the processing of all of the scale information, from the tare setting to the zero-weight calibration setting.

BEETLE /iScale Hub _____________________________________________________________________ Installing the Devices Install the devices so that they are not subjected to any extreme environmental conditions. Protect the devices from shocks, dust, moisture, heat and strong magnetic fields. Always be sure that the side ventilation slots of the BEETLE /M are not blocked, thus ensuring that the device always has sufficient ventilation.
BEETLE /iScale Hub _____________________________________________________________________ Cable Connections for the BEETLE /M and BEETLE /iScale Hub Connect the BEETLE /iScale Hub Scale COM to the COM4 interface on the rear side of the BEETLE /M. Since the BEETLE /iScale Hub does not have its own ON/OFF switch, we recommend connecting the BEETLE /iScale Hub using the switched auxiliary power socket to the sub-socket of the BEETLE /M (see illustrations on pages 8 and 9).
