Good afternoon, I acquired a Prix 4Uno scale with communication via ethernet.

I wonder if there are examples in C# to implement communication with it, or if it is only via MGV 6 software.

Any initial foottip is already a great help.

EDIT: I found several useful links that helped me in the implementation

  1. Manufacturer’s Youtube channel, where tutorials on how to pre-configure the scale will be found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fG5DsE9-jeE&list=PLge9BfwMSPNmEpeZ6r0LjqkGQNU_7VqtA

  2. File layout . txt that will be generated for MGV6 to import items: https://www.toledobrasil.com.br/help/mgv6/v1_6_/Html_Pages/arquivos_de_cadastro.html

  3. Example of how the full export screen would look: http://conhecimento.alterdata.com.br/ar/kblive.php?action=showEntry&data=4471

  4. Layout of the Barcode generated by the balance. This is necessary for later entering the information by the system: https://www.toledobrasil.com.br/help/mgv6/v1_6_/Html_Pages/tipocodigobarras.html

    The ideal is to ask the manufacturer.

  • has documentation of its interface ?

  • @Renan I’ve seen on the manufacturer’s website and I’ve asked, the same do not have this information.

  • It has documentation, but it does not help the development at all. From what I see, I have to generate a text file p/ import by the software that comes along with it, for now I have not found a way to do direct by my software.

  • @Renanvalentim if the manufacturer does not know, something wrong is not right. It would be like me selling you a car and not knowing if the gearbox is automatic. In that case, I’m sorry, but you’re clearing uncharted ground.

I even took a look at her handbook: http://www.sotomano.com/produtos/arquivos/prix4uno-618.pdf

I don’t think you need to develop a software to communicate with the balance, and the manufacturer already provides one for this.

As the scale works by printing labels with the barcode, the sales system only needs to read the label and calculate the quantity, nothing more.

In the cadastral part of the items, it is only necessary to export the information in a text file and transfer to the balance by the manufacturer’s software.

Edit:

There’s a topic here: http://www.vbmania.com.br/index.php?modulo=forum&metodo=abrir&id=357291 that can help you with the layout.

And from what I read here: http://www.sipsistema.com.br/atualizacao/Manual_MGV5_Op.pdf the text file is at the root of the software, I think you should already have the model of how it should be generated.

  • Exactly, I only need the layout of the txt files to generate by my software and to load p/the balance via MGV 6 (Software distributed by the manufacturer). Direct communication is impossible via Libs or similar.

    Exactly, it is only necessary to install the MGV6 Software and import the list of items that my system should export. I edited my question with the information where to find the complete documentation.
