Most Present on-board scales utilize a micro-processor based meter in a cab and one or more remote 'transmitters' out near the load sensors. The transmitters each have a voltage to frequency converter to digitize the transducer data. A new generation of on-board scale electronics is being designed which utilizes a network for the remote transmitters. The new transmitters contain their own microcomputer and calibration data storage. Digital data is sent over the network to a 'master controller' in the cab. The master provides a direct interface to an on-board computer.
