Most of those scales have serial connection to the PC. From NAV you need to use an automation and connect to the port and send a message to the scale will send back the weight.

This is how Lanham scale works for E-Ship.

Yes, you will need some automation to read the scale.

By the way, most of the scales and retail devices connected to a POS use a standard called OPOS. If you want to design an automation for the scale-reading, you could use this OPOS interface.

There are NAV add-os for Retail Business that implements the OPOS.
