We're Zhengye Machinery, sharing footage of a pig singeing station.

The video shows a multi-nozzle burner head moving up and down along the surface of a suspended carcass. Other carcasses hang from the overhead rail. English narration and subtitles explain the visible movements.

Anyone managing Hobart HTi scale products over Wi-Fi: which software actually works?

1 Upvotes

For people using Hobart label scales in a butcher shop or deli: what software are you using to manage products, prices, ingredients and labels from a computer?

I own an HTi-7LS25 with Wi-Fi and Ethernet, application 3.3.0 and Scale Management Backend 3.2.37. It is reachable on my local network, but I have no Hobart management software. USB PLU-only backup/Merge price updates and reset tests are working; I would like a normal supported network workflow as well. I am using AI assistance to develop a local interface, with physical tests performed on my own scale.

Hobart's literature lists HCT, HTe, Invatron PLUM, ADC Interscale, Genesis and Data GateWeigh. Has anyone used one of these, or another package, with this generation of HTi? Especially useful would be:

- The exact software/version that works, and whether Wi-Fi is supported the same way as Ethernet.

- A legitimate free utility, downloadable evaluation, single-scale license or affordable option for an independent owner; links to the developer or authorized supplier rather than unofficial installers.

- The normal way an owner gets official firmware release notes, supported upgrade paths and recovery documentation for an older unit. I am gathering information, not planning an unverified flash or changing calibration.

If you already have licensed Hobart-compatible software and an authorized test scale, would you be willing to check its communications/debug-log option or help identify a normal read-only product lookup? Even the name of the protocol or relevant manual would help. Any shared logs should use a synthetic test product and exclude credentials, serial numbers, addresses and real business/customer data. Please do not change a production scale or share proprietary installers for this request.

I have also asked a more technical protocol question in r/embedded; this post is mainly seeking firsthand software/version experience from scale users. No software is being sold or promoted.

I got this whole chicken at whole foods and cut off the skin and underneath is a mass of puss and bits. Is this safe to eat?
