METHODS AND APPARATUS TO INDICATE OFF-PLATTER WEIGH CONDITIONS

Abstract: the disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for identifying off-platter weighing conditions in barcode reading and weighing systems. the system includes a weigh platter with a scale to measure item weight and an off-platter detection assembly to determine if a portion of the item extends off the platter. it features a communication interface to connect with a pos system and a processor that processes inputs from the platter and detection assembly. if an item is not fully on the platter, the system adjusts the weight reading to indicate this condition and communicates the modified weight to the pos system.
