Abstract

PURPOSE:To dispense with the count of goods by manual work and to automatize stock control by providing a sensor to calculate the weight of the goods on a display rack. CONSTITUTION:A terminal control circuit 2 outputs a sensor address signal 15 periodically to recognize weight sensors 9A-9N periodically by switching, and a selection control circuit 6 decides the weight sensor to scan, and it is transmitted to a switching circuit 8. The sensor output signals 19A-19N of the weight sensors 9A-9N which measure the weight of the goods on a selected display rack are switched sequentially, and they are sent to a signal conversion circuit 7 as sensor signals 18. The signal conversion circuit 7 sends a selected sensor signal 18 to the terminal control circuit 2 as a digital data signal 16. The displayed number of goods is calculated from the digital data signal 16 and the weight of the goods stored in a memory device 5, and it is displayed on a CRT 4 via a CRT control signal 13.
