If that is what he is after, he needs the manual from the balance to
learn the protocol. The balance might look like a little HTTP server
to him, much the way a router works.  Typically you can experiment
sending it commands with your browser.  To automate, you would need to
send HTTP gets and POSTS. See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/http.html
 
Which off all these interpretations of your question is closest?

For me, the appeal of computer programming is that
even though I am quite a klutz,
I can still produce something, in a sense
perfect, because the computer gives me as many
chances as I please to get it right.
