<br>
Thank you for your answers.<br>
<br>
Finally I've managed to make it work, but a strange behavior (at
least for newbies like me) arose. When I use readyRead signal, I
can't get more than a single byte to read.<br>
<br>
Finally I've had to do this: Make a sort of loop in reading()
function to read one by one and append to a string. I don't get
any results with readline and friends, I guess because the device
I am communicating with uses \r instead of \n as line end. So
read(1) or readAll() do the trick.<br>

Again, thank you very much for your help<br>

And it works. Maybe the problem is related to the fact that my
scale uses just \r (chr 13) as line ending character, so readLine
and folks don't work as expected.<br>

readAll() returns all data that has been read from the device since the
last read. It won't wait for data to arrive because it doesn't know how
much is expected. Use the readyRead() signal.

soc=QtNetwork.QTcpSocket()
soc.connectToHost('174.33.22.11',23000)

return a
Ther is no wai to make it works. I guess is a basic python issue, but
can anyone help?

QTcpSocket is asynchronous, so you need an event loop. After calling
connectToHost() you shouldn't try to read or write until the
