420HE Installation Manual

2.3.2

Load Cells

Using one of the 6-position connectors, provided in the
parts kit, wire the load cell cable from the load cell or
junction box to connector J1 on the CPU board (See
Figure 2-3 7). If using six-wire load cell cable (with
sense wires), remove jumpers JP1 and JP2 before
reinstalling connector J1 (see Figure 2-3). For
four-wire installation, leave jumpers JP1 and JP2 on.
When connections are complete, reinstall connector J1
onto the header so that it snaps securely into place. Use
two cable ties to secure the load cell cable to the inside
of the enclosure.

For 4-wire connections, leave jumpers JP1 and
JP2 on

2.3.3

Serial Communications

Using one of the six-position connectors, provided in
the parts kit, wire the serial communications cables to
J4. Connector J3 provides connections for the EDP/
RS-232 port. Connect communications cables to
connectors J3 and J4 as shown in Table 2-2.

Once cables are attached, reconnect J3 and J4 to the
headers on the board (see Figure 2-3). Use cable ties to
secure serial cables to the inside of the enclosure.

Digital I/O

Digital inputs can be set to provide several indicator
functions, including all keypad functions. The inputs
are active (on) with low voltage (0 VDC) and can be
driven b y TTL or 5V log ic with out add itional
hardware. Use the DIG IN menu to configure the
digital inputs. LED’s on the CPU board light when
digital inputs are active.

Digital outputs are typically used to control relays that
drive other equipment. Outputs are designed to sink not
source, switching current. Each output is a normally
open connector circuit, capable of sinking 250 mA
when active. Digital outputs are wired to switch relays
when the digital output is active (low, 0 VDC) with
reference to 5 VDC supply. LEDs on the CPU board
light when the digital outputs are active.

Analog Output

If the optional analog output module is installed, attach
the output cable to connector J1 on the analog output
board. Table 2-4 on page 9 lists the analog output pin
assignments.

Use the ALGOUT menu to configure and calibrate the
analog output module when cabling is complete. See
Section 2.4 for information about installing the analog
output module.
