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.
Next, remove connector J1 from the single-channel A/D card. The connector plugs into a header on the A/D card.
Wire the load cell cable from the load cell or junction box to connector J1 as shown in the table below.
Figure 3-2. Single-Channel and Dual-Channel A/D Cards
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.
