Turn all potentiometers max clockwise if you do not whish to make corner adjustment

Corner adjustment is in almost all application not necessary, without adjusting corner the difference could be max ±0,1% between the corners.

* On LCA-D SIG+ and SIG- are named I+ and I-

* EXC and SIG are often marked as E and S only.

** If you have more than 10m distance from junction box to indicator we recomend you to choose a

6 wires cable and just connect the wires between SEN+ and SEN- between junction box and indicator

If cable is shorter than 10 meters it´s ok not to use SEN function, in that case you must connect a short circuit wire on the indicator between +EXC to +SEN and -EXC to -SEN. However on many indicators there is a short circuit jumpers to be used on the electronic board, please check indicator manual.

WARNINGS!!!

* Never overload a cell with more than 50%

* Never perform welding work near the load cell. The cell(s)

must be mechnaically removed before welding work can be done.

* Always if possible make sure the cells does not stand in water,

not even the IP68 models.
