Ignore Scale Pole Directives (Parameter #1242)
The pole display is required to be consumer facing if the POS system is not certified for displaying live gross weight.
- Ignore Scale Pole Directives—always returns the status Remote display required but not detected to the POS system. POS weight display and/or price/weight transactions are enabled whether a pole display is installed or not.
- Honor Scale Pole Directives—returns the status "Remote display required but not detected" to the POS system when the Scale Display Configuration is set to Enable (refer to Scale Display Configuration (Parameter #986)), but either the pole display is uninstalled or the connection to the port is faulty. This prevents live gross weight from displaying on the POS system, and inhibits price/weight scale transactions at the POS until a pole display is installed and shows live gross weight. Under this condition, the 7-segment display also scrolls a U23 fault code.
Scan one of the following bar codes to ignore or honor the scale pole directives. By default, this parameter is set to Ignore.
