Bizerba BC800 Series Compatibility with Clover POS
Bizerba BC800 Series Compatibility with Clover POS
Fully supported with CSI Works barcode parser apps—barcode format determines the setup
Question
A specialty food store recently installed a Bizerba BC800 scale to label products like nuts, olives, and meats. They’re using Clover POS and want to scan the scale’s labels at checkout. However, they aren’t sure if the barcode printed by the scale includes total price or total weight. Can this model be used with Clover, and how should they proceed?
Answer
Yes—the Bizerba BC800 Series is compatible with Clover POS when paired with the right CSI Works barcode parser app. The scale can be configured to print barcodes containing either total price or total weight, and CSI Works supports both formats.
To enable proper scanning into Clover’s Register app, simply choose the correct CSI Works parser app based on your barcode type:
-
Variable Price Barcode Parser – for barcodes with total price
-
Weight Embedded Barcode Parser – for barcodes with total weight
