The Indicator requires a J905 Serial port and current software. The Cab Control App and ERM-WIFI system is not compatible with other Digi-Star wireless Cab Control or DataLink systems. The Digi-Star Cab Control App provides both remote display and basic control capabilities. The Cab Control App is easy to view and use and can make the loading and unloading process more efficient and accurate. The Digi-Star Cab Control App provides the ability to: Zero the Scale, Tare the Scale (set a temporary Zero to achieve a Net weight), Toggle between Net & Gross weights, Print or Hold the Weight, and the ability to Advance to the next Ingredient when used with Digi-Star’s Advanced Feed Batching Indicators and TMR Tracker Software. *Digi-Star ERM-WIFI modules are available through many animal feed mixer dealers and distributors of Digi-Star products.
