The Digi-Star StockWeigh 500 indicator is designed to weigh livestock. The Lock-On feature

allows this scale to weigh active and restless animals within ±1% of actual weight. This

indicator can be connected to various load cell systems.

Getting Started

The following steps will allow you to get familiar with your new StockWeigh 500 indicator.

Installing StockWeigh 500 Indicator

Connecting Power

Connect power cord to the bottom panel power connector. Power can be obtained directly

from a 12VDC battery or from a 120VAC power cube that plugs into a wall outlet.

Note:

A small 12V deep cycle lead acid battery will provide many hours of operation for the

indicator.

WARNING:

Disconnect the indicator from the battery while recharging. Damage can

occur to the indicator.

Connecting Load Cells

The indicator is designed to operate with two or four, strain gage load cells. Cable extension

kits are available from your dealer in various lengths.
