Question
A small grocer recently installed the Tor Rey LSQ-40L scale in their prep area. Their goal is to weigh products like deli meats and produce, print barcode labels, and scan them directly at the register using Clover POS. The challenge? They don’t know if the barcodes printed by this scale contain total price or total weight. Will it still work? What CSI Works app should they use?
Answer
Yes, the Tor Rey LSQ-40L is compatible with Clover POS when paired with either the Variable Price Barcode Parser or Weight Embedded Barcode Parser, depending on how the scale is configured to generate barcodes.
These types of label-printing scales are programmable, meaning they can embed either total price or total weight into the barcode. You don’t need to know the barcode format ahead of time to proceed—just choose the correct CSI Works parser app once it’s confirmed.
Scenario | Use This App |
---|---|
Barcode contains total price | Variable Price Barcode Parser |
Barcode contains total weight | Weight Embedded Barcode Parser |
If you're unsure whether your scale prints weight or price:
Print a test label from the Tor Rey LSQ-40L.
Review the label: is the barcode reflecting the total weight or total price?
Still unsure? Email us a photo of the label and we’ll identify the format for you.
Regardless of which barcode parser you use:
Define your items in Clover Inventory as Variable Price Type
Make sure the PRODUCT CODE in Clover matches the PLU number programmed in the scale
Install the correct CSI Works app based on the barcode format
Your labels will scan directly into the Clover Register with both product and price or weight applied automatically
This model is commonly used in meat markets, grocery stores, and deli shops for printing weight-based or price-based barcode labels. When paired with CSI Works barcode parser apps, it becomes a seamless solution for checkout on Clover POS.
With either CSI Works barcode parser, your Tor Rey LSQ-40L becomes a powerful, accurate tool for automated checkout in a Clover POS environment—even if you don’t yet know your barcode format.
