Walter: The Scale applet as it is in the code, basically shows the scale reading, to the user. it does not feed that information back into ofbiz. It has a default value built in if the scale is not connected. it needs a lot of work if you want to have it interactive with ofbiz. I changed it to an application, instead of an applet.
