Remarks

For price-calculating scales, set UnitPrice before calling the ReadWeight method. The scale will calculate SalesPrice by multiplying the UnitPrice with the item's weight.

If CapPriceCalculating is false, the scale is not a price-calculating scale. In this case, setting a unit price is not supported and UnitPrice is always zero.

UnitPrice is initialized to zero when the device is first enabled following the Open method.

Accessing UnitPrice may cause a PosControlException to be thrown with the following ErrorCode:

Meaning

Illegal

CapPriceCalculating is false or an invalid price was specified.
