The Loadstar Sensors DS-3000 portable display provides a convenient method of monitoring loads on up to
four Loadstar load cells simultaneously. The DS-3000 device supports the complete range of Loadstar’s
iLoad USB load cell line: the iLoad Digital USB, iLoad Pro Digital USB, iLoad TR Digital load cells, the iLoad
Mini when paired with the DQ-1000U Frequency to USB converter, and the complete FlexiSensor line when
paired with the CS2000/CS4000.
The 6-digit LED displays the loading of one to four connected sensors in any combination. A front panel
push-button or an external input can be used to simultaneously tare all connected sensors. Other front
panel push buttons change displayed units (Newton/Pound/Kilogram), and display precision. Combinations
of push-buttons access the advanced settings and programming menus- where many advanced features
and PLC like programmable functions are accessible for advanced users.
Two programmable relay outputs can be synchronized to an external input, or programmed to respond to
complex sensor/load set-point combinations. Relay outputs may be activated and de-activated on pre-
selected loading criteria based on single sensors or multiple sensor sums.
The built in host USB-uplink port connects to your PC for simplified remote control, or remote data collection.
Either your virtual serial port based software, or Loadstar Sensors windows based LoadVUE Software can
be used to log and chart displayed data from the DS-3000U.
