Using the Tor Rey L-EQ Bluetooth Scale

This article will show you how to setup and use your bluetooth scale with Lavu POS.

Menu Setting

You will need to create the menu item or items that you want to weigh to assign the price associated with the weight. 

• Example: Earl Grey Tea (oz) $1.25 ($1.25 per oz)

Once you have created the item:

1. Select *Weight from the forced modifier drop-down at the top of the category OR in line with the menu item
