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 10
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.
