Connecting the Scale Base
Pass the load cell cable through the strain relief and attach it to terminal block J5.
Re-tighten the strain relief to ensure a watertight seal.
Jumper connections
For a 4-wire load cell with no sense wires: Jumpers W2 and W3 must be shorted.
For a 6-wire load cell that includes sense wires, see Figure 2-2. Jumpers W2 and W3 must
be opened.
For load cells with an extra ground shield wire: Connect the shield to the center position (GND)
