A remote display shows the weight away from the main indicator, so the loader operator, the truck driver or the person in the cab doesn't have to lean, turn or climb out to check it. Loads come out closer to target and nobody is guessing.
Which one do you need?
It depends on the scale you already run.
Libra Cart, Feed or Plant
Your phone is already a remote display, for free. Pair any extra phone or tablet in the Libra app and it shows the live weight within Bluetooth range.
Want big numbers? Add the 4" LED scoreboard. A Libra Cart M0018 needs only the scoreboard cable ($105). Older Libra Cart boxes, Libra Feed and Libra Plant use a Serial Link ($1,195) with the scoreboard and power cables.
Digi-Star EZ series
Running a Digi-Star EZ, EZ II or EZ III indicator? Add a Digi-Star remote. The RD 440 is small enough for a loader arm or mirror. The RD 2500 has a bigger, brighter screen for reading farther away.
Avery Weigh-Tronix 660
The 4" LED scoreboard works with the 660. It connects to the indicator's serial port and sets itself up, with no programming.
Radio-equipped indicator
If your indicator has a radio transmitter, the in-cab remote shows the weight wirelessly on your dash. Not sure if yours does? Send us the indicator model.

4" LED scoreboard
Bright red digits 4 inches tall that the loader operator, the combine and the truck driver can all read from a distance, in sun, dust or fog.
Works with the Avery 660 and Libra
It connects to the indicator's serial port and learns the setup on its own, with no programming. On Libra, it plugs into the M0018 or a Serial Link. It also works with other indicators that have a serial output. Ask us about yours.
Built for outside
Weather-resistant, and mounts on a post, a grain cart, a truck or a building.
Where it's used
Grain carts, feed mixers, truck platforms and anywhere a crew needs to watch the weight. The person loading sees the number without looking away.
In-cab remote
Shows the weight from a radio-equipped scale indicator on a small display in your cab, so you know the weight without getting out.
Wireless, live weights
The indicator's radio sends the weight to the remote as it changes. No cable runs to the cab.
Compact dash mount
Small enough for a tractor or truck dash.
Where it's used
Filling a grain cart, mixing feed or loading livestock, anywhere you would otherwise climb out to read the indicator. It needs an indicator with a radio transmitter. Send us your model and we will tell you.
Questions
Does a remote display replace my indicator?
No. It repeats the weight from your indicator somewhere easier to see. Your indicator still does the weighing. The exception is Libra: there, your phone or tablet is the indicator and any extra phone is the remote.
Will the scoreboard work with my Avery Weigh-Tronix 660?
Yes. It connects to the 660's serial port and sets itself up.
What do I need to run a scoreboard from Libra?
A Libra Cart M0018 needs just the scoreboard cable ($105). Older Libra Cart boxes, Libra Feed and Libra Plant need a Serial Link ($1,195) with the scoreboard cable and the power cable ($105), which also powers the scoreboard.
RD 440 or RD 2500?
The RD 440 when it mounts close to you, like on a loader arm or mirror. The RD 2500 when you need a bigger screen you can read from farther away. Both work with the Digi-Star EZ series.
How do I know if my indicator works with the in-cab remote?
It needs a built-in radio transmitter. Send us the make and model of your indicator, or a photo of it, and we will tell you.
Not sure which fits? Call 800-582-3175 or send us your scale and indicator, and we will match the display to it.
