3.3 CONNECTION
This indicator must be connected to a load cell platform and calibrated as necessary
to match the platform and user requirements.
The GC has a connector configured for either 4 or 6 wire load cells. Connect the
load cells/platform to the indicator as shown below. The cable length should be as
short as possible, using a large size wire to minimise errors due to resistance in the
leads.
Figure 1A shows the connections to a 6 wire load cell. Figure 1B and 1C show 2
different ways to attach a 4 wire load cell, 1B uses a 6 conductor cable to go from
the indicator to the platform or load cell where it connects to the 4 wires from the
load cells.
The Excitation and sense wires are connected internally in the GC indicator.
