15.4 Power (Truck) Cable
Included with the control box is a 2-conductor 14-gauge cable that supplies power to
the control box. This cable is referred to as the truck cable. The truck cable has the
following wiring color code:

BLACK - GROUND

WHITE - +12V DC (switched and fused)

1. Route the Power cable through the strain relief in the control box to the nearest

switched and Fused connection. The control box power is connected to a
switched circuit to ensure the control box is only on when the key is on.

2. Insert the 7.5A blade fuse into the blade fuse holder and connect one end of the

blade fuse holder to the white conductor. Spade terminals are provided to
create an insulated connection.

3. Connect other side of blade fuse holder to a power source.

4. Connect the black conductor to a ground source.

5. Plug in the power cable into the corresponding connector in the control box.

6. With the control box switch OFF. Turn the truck key on and confirm power by

viewing the LED on the circuit board.

7. Turn off the power source.

15.5 Cab Alarm (Optional)
The cab alarm provides a visual and audible signal to the operator when the scale is in
the weigh position. The cab alarm functions when the control box power switch is on
(software controlled) and when it is off (hardware controlled).

1. Mount the cab alarm/buzzer assembly in a convenient location in the cab of the

truck.

2. Route the cable to the control box. Install the strain relief into a 7/8 hole drilled into

the box. Install the cable through the strain relief and install the pins of the cable into
the connector as shown in Figure 14.
