The AWR300 always includes a Bluetooth module and if the scale has Bluetooth built in as
well, so using an RS232 cable connection is not necessary. Scales without integrated Bluetooth
can be upgraded using an external adapter. Contact your local distributor for further details.
However, RS232 is also supported by the AWR300 but in this case you will need the optional
RS232 cable ‘APC310’ (p/n 4061). An adapter might be necessary additionally, depending on
your weighing indicator.
