Chassis ground is made through the foil compressed between the metal sleeve and the cord grip stem.

Load Cells

To attach cable from a load cell or junction box, use six-position connector in parts kit. See Section 2.4 on

page 11 for information on cabling through metal cord grips.
Wire the load cell cable from the load cell or junction box to connector CN3 as shown in Figure 2-6. If using

6-wire load cell cable (with sense wires), remove jumpers J1 and J2 before installing connector CN3. For

four-wire installation, leave jumpers J1 and J2 on.
When connections are complete, reinstall connector CN3 on the board and use two cable ties to secure the load

cell cable to the inside of the enclosure.
