3.1 Setting date and time


The machine has an internal clock which stores the date and time. It
uses the clock to calculate the sell-by dates printed on labels and to
print the date and time on printouts and reports.
When you set the date and time on the server scale any client scales
connected to it will synchronise their clocks with the server.
O The default format for the date is day/month/year.
O The time is displayed to the right of the date in hours/minutes
(24 hour).
Important:
You must enter the appropriate separators as well as the digits for the
date and time.

3.2 Configuration
3.2.1 Network parameters
These settings configure the way in which the functions listed operate
for all the scales across a network and for stand alone scales.
Account validation
Off - any account number accepted. You can enter any account
reference and charge goods or make payments to that account.
On - only known accounts allowed. You can charge goods or make
payments only to accounts that have been previously programmed in
the machine.
Auto subtotal display
This setting determines whether the subtotal is displayed or not when
transactions are assigned.
Subtotal display timeout
This sets the length of time (secs) the subtotal is displayed.
Bestsellers
Best seller status is decided by the quantities of the products traded.
Based on the number of transactions, these keys are automatically
updated either once a day, once a week or immediately depending how
your machine was configured on installation.
Products with the highest quantities are the best sellers but over time
these quantities may drop and greater significance needs to be given to

4.1 Networks overview 44

4.1 Networks overview


The machine network system in a store can consist of a mixture of label
and receipt machines. The system will support any combination of
machines in the XM and XT ranges provided they have the same
software version.
Scale networks can be connected physically in an ethernet setup or via
802.11 Wifi. Scales can be set up as:
O Stand alone
O Server client networks
O Multi server networks
O Peer group networks
Stand alone
Each scale is independent. Communication is only possible to a back
office system.
Server/Client
One or more client scales receives its data from a server scale. The
number of clients that can be supported on a network will depend on
server performance.
A back office host can communicate with the server which will then
communicate with the clients.
Scales set up in such a way can share resources and information
(operators, PLUs etc.). Local price and product updates can be made
at any of the scales. Floating vendor is possible.
4
Floating vendor allows an operator to move from one scale to another,
picking up live transaction from a particular customer at the second
scale.
Multi server
Each scale is configured as a server. If there is a back office software
application this communicates with all the scales.
Each scale holds its own product file and floating vendor is not
possible.
Peer group
Each scale is configured as a server in the same way as a multi server
network but local price and product updates can be made at any scale
and communicated across the scales configured within the same peer
group.

XM Setup and Programming Guide


4.2 Comms Setup (Store networks) 45

4.2 Comms Setup (Store networks)


4.2.1 Wired setup
Scales are connected together using one or several hubs as required.
The number and position of the hubs required is determined by the
store layout and the type of hub used.
Two scales can be connected together without the use of a hub. A
simple cross-over cable is used to connect the two machines together.
Each machine in a network must have a unique IP address. The IP
address is used by the TCP/IP protocol to identify the source and
destination of data packets.
Static IP address networks Note: Before setting up

and the machine address.
The network address
The network address must be the same as all the other machines on
the same network.
The machine address 4
The machine address must be different from the other machines on
the same network.
The network address depends on which sub-net mask is used, for
example for an IP address of 88.1.1.7:

Sub-net mask 255.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 255.255.255.0

Network address 88.0.0.0 88.1.0.0 88.1.1.0

Machine address 88.1.1.7 88.1.1.7 88.1.1.7

Sub-net mask
The sub-net mask allows you to split a large physical network into
smaller logical networks.
Gateway
A gateway enables networks using different protocols to
communicate.

XM Setup and Programming Guide


4.2 Comms Setup (Store networks) 46

DHCP networks
You can allocate a fixed IP address for the scale or, by enabling DHCP,
the address can be allocated by the network server.
DHCP
In Manager Mode:
1. Select Comms Setup
2. Select Wired Setup
3. Select DHCP Enable and set the value to 1. (Touch Edit to go to
the editing screen.) The IP address will then be allocated by the
DHCP server for the network.

4.2.2 Wireless setup (WLAN) - RF comms (optional)


Power the scale up with the wireless USB adaptor plugged in so the
scale will detect the type of adaptor it is and save the settings
accordingly.
In Manager Mode
1. Select Comms Setup
2. select Wireless Setup
Basic
Set the appropriate values for the type of wireless network.
O Set the IP address to one that is unique to that scale.
O Set the network address to be the same as all the other
machines on the same network. (This will depend on the sub-
4
net mask used.)
O Set the machine address to be different from all the other
machines on the same network.
O Set DHCP as Disable or Enable. If DHCP is disabled you do not
need to set the IP address and sub-net mask.
O Set mode to either ‘Managed’ or ‘AdHoc’.
‘Managed’ is for a communications system via an access point.
Use ‘AdHoc’ for direct communication (peer to peer) networks.
Security mode settings
Communications across wireless networks can be encrypted to keep
transmissions secure, and to keep networks separate.
Encryption makes use of user defined ‘keys’ which set how the scale
encodes and decodes the transmissions. Only scales using the same
encryption key will be able to communicate with each other.

Load Conf File
Touching the “Load Conf File” button causes a file named
wpa_supplicant.conf to be loaded from the root of a memory stick
and stored on the machine. The basic setup security mode is set to
“Loaded Config File” so there is no need for the user to do this
separately.
The wpa_supplicant.conf file contains the wireless settings in the
format recognised by the standard wpa_supplicant program. This
allows connection to wireless networks using a RADIUS
authentication server.
