Routing the Axle Sensor Extension Cables
1. Starting from the trailer scale display, connect the gray interface
cable to Port 2 on the back of the trailer scale.
2. Connect the SHORTER sensor extension cable to Sensor 1
connector on the opposite end of the gray interface cable.
3. Route the SHORTER sensor extension cable along the frame
of the trailer toward the location where the FRONT sensor
bracket is installed and the LONGER sensor extension cable
along the frame to the location where the REAR sensor bracket
is installed. If possible, route along an existing wiring harness.
If the trailer has a sliding suspension you must use an existing
wiring harness or umbilical to avoid damaging or breaking the
cable.
4. Secure the cable loosely to the frame using zip ties.
5. Connect the end of the sensor extension cables to the
connectors on the deection sensors. Make sure the cable is
under no strain and is not bent.
Note: Make sure there is enough slack in the sensor extension cable
to allow for axle movement. Do not tighten or trim zip ties until the full
installation is complete.
Setting the A/D Values
At this point, you have installed both trailer’s axle sensors and routed
extension cables. You will next adjust the deection sensors to read
weight correctly by setting the A/D values. A/D refers to the analog-
to-digital conversion of the sensor reading.
This step will require the use of either the trailer display or the
Deection Sensor Test box (P/N 1001). If using the Deection Sensor
Test box, connect the box to the deection sensor connector plug and
skip to the Adjusting the A/D Readings section.
