Abstract
The present invention is directed to a system with a gravimetric weighing instrument, a network interface, a network, and a computer, wherein the gravimetric weighing instrument can be connected via the network interface to the network. Executable on the computer is a browser application, and the network interface makes available a command application which, via the browser application, causes the representation on the computer of an input mask. Via the input mask on the computer, a program for automatic use of the gravimetric weighing instrument can be defined, the program being executable by the gravimetric weighing instrument.
