The USB platform scale of the PCE-PB N series is a versatile platform scale. The functions of the USB platform scale are very extensive, but one function is particularly interesting for shipping. It is the bidirectional USB interface of the platform scales that enables control by the PC. However, the USB platform scales of the PCE-PB N series can be used with the optional, inexpensive ''ProCell'' software. This software simulates keyboard input, similar to a scanner. With the help of this software, the platform scale can then transfer the weight value into active fields.

Another advantage of this platform scale is the wired display. The display is supplied with a stand, but it is also suitable for wall mounting. Other interesting functions of the platform scales are the piece counting function, PEAK hold function, function for level control, measuring units such as kg / lb / N (Newton) / g, adjustable background lighting, adjustable automatic switch-off and the option to operate the scales with power pack or batteries.
