ABSTRACT:
A data gathering system for use in a checkout counter to determine information relating to products to be purchased and to provide such information to a cash register system includes a scale supported within the checkout counter for determining weights of products presented to the data gathering system. The scale includes a subplatter located below the upper surface of the checkout counter. An optical scanning arrangement is supported on the subplatter for reading coded labels on the products. A common interface circuit is responsive to both the scale and the optical scanning arrangement, for providing weight data and coded label data to the cash register system.
