With a USB scale you can get weight readings automatically and check out your customers faster. 

 

To connect your scale you must use a specific cable and have the latest version of the Square app on your iPad (version 5.84). 

 

Also, please ensure that you have correctly set up items to sell by weight and have connected the scale to your device by following the steps below.

 

To connect a USB scale to your Square Stand:

For Brecknell 6710U and CAS SW-RS scales, you’ll need the right cable depending on your Square Stand model prior to getting started. This can be purchased through Square Shop.

    Note: For Square Stand for iPad (2017, 2018), iPad Pro 9.7", and iPad Air (1, 2), you need to connect the 9 pin male end of the Serial-to-HID adapter into the port on your scale and plug the Micro-USB end of the cable to the adapter.

    To check the connection, open the Square Point of Sale app and tap the three horizontal lines on the navigation bar.
