Installation 9
• For load cell cables, cut the shield wire just
past the grounding clamp. Shield wire
function is provided by contact between the
cable shield and the grounding clamp.
• Route stripped cables through cord grips and
clamps. Ensure shields contact grounding
clamps as shown in Figure 2-1. Tighten
grounding clamp nuts.
• Finish installation using cable ties to secure
cables inside of indicator enclosure.
2.3.2 Load Cells
To attach cable from a load cell or junction box to an
installed A/D card, route the cable through the cord
grip and ground the shield wire as described in
Section 2.3.1 on page 8.
Next, remove connector J1 from the A/D card. The
connector plugs into a header on the A/D card (see
Figure 2-2). Wire the load cell cable from the load cell
or junction box to connector J1 as shown in Table 2-1.
Figure 2-2. Single-Channel A/D Card
If using 6-wire load cell cable (with sense wires),
remove jumpers JP1 and JP2 before reinstalling
connector J1. For 4-wire installation, leave jumpers
JP1 and JP2 on. For 6-wire load cell connections on
dual-channel A/D cards, remove jumpers JP3 and JP4
for connections to J2.
When connections are complete, reinstall load cell
connector on the A/D card and use two cable ties to
secure the load cell cable to the inside of the
enclosure.
