I am trying to program RMS to read my barcodes that print out from my meat scales. example: 0 200013 012100. i'm not sore about the first two digits but the "0001" is the item number. the "3" must me a check digit, the "01210" is the price,$12.10, and the last "0" must be a check digit. i have weighed up diferent weights and the only thing that stays the same in the "0 20001". i am looking for RMS to read the price off the barcode without having to put the price per pound in RMS. any suggestions? thank you K.PJ.

You do have to give RMS the price per pound. It uses that to calculate the weight which it then uses as the quantity sold. In SO Manager, File/Configuration/Options/Item Options, make sure you have seleced "Use random weight EAN" - your scale is printing EAN codes, not UPC...
your itemLookupCode should be 0200010000000 If you have items of different price per pound, you need different items in RMS and different PLUs in the scale.
You could set the price in RMS to $1.00, and you would end up with the correct extended price, but in your example, the receipt would show that you sold 12.10 pounds of the item. I suspect that Weights & Measures would not like that very much...
