Hobart HT Series Compatibility with Clover POS
Question
A high-volume grocer is upgrading to a Hobart HTm scale to print labels for weighed goods like cheeses and produce. Another merchant is using the HTs model, and a third is considering the more advanced HTi. Each store uses Clover POS and wants to scan the scale’s barcodes directly at the register. Are these Hobart HT Series models compatible, and which CSI Works app is required?
Answer
Yes—all three models in the Hobart HT Series—HTs, HTi, and HTm—are compatible with Clover POS when used with the appropriate CSI Works barcode parser app. These scales are widely used in grocery environments and are programmable to print either price-embedded or weight-embedded barcodes.
To ensure proper label scanning into Clover, merchants must install the right CSI Works app based on the barcode format printed by their scale:
-
Variable Price Barcode Parser – for barcodes that contain the total price
-
Weight Embedded Barcode Parser – for barcodes that contain the total weight
🔁 Hobart HT Series – All Models Work
| Model | Description |
|---|---|
| HTs | Compact or bench model |
| HTi | Interactive / touchscreen |
| HTm | Mid-range advanced scale |
No matter which model you choose, barcode output is what determines which app to use—not the hardware itself.
🧠 Which Barcode Parser App Should You Use?
| Barcode Format | Use This CSI Works App |
|---|---|
| Barcode contains total price | Variable Price Barcode Parser |
| Barcode contains total weight | Weight Embedded Barcode Parser |

⚙️ Clover Inventory Setup Tips
To make everything work seamlessly:
-
Set your Clover inventory items as Variable Price Type
-
Use the Product Code field (not SKU) to match the PLU used in the scale
-
Install the CSI Works app that matches the barcode format your scale is set to produce
After setup, a single scan will automatically pull in the item and correct pricing into the Clover Register.
