Wiring and Termination
Most of the PLMIII truck connections use a heavy-
duty cable. This yellow multi-conductor cable uses a
16AWG, finely stranded wire designed for continuous
motion operations. The conductors are protected by
a foil and braided shield for electronic noise immunity
and physical strength. This wire is typically
terminated with a #10 ring terminal. Most
connections for the PLMIII system are made in the
payload meter junction box.
TCI Outputs
The GE drive system on the requires information
from the payload meter regarding the loaded
condition of the truck. There are three outputs from
the payload meter to GE to indicate the relative load
in the truck. 24VDC on the 73MSL circuit indicates
that the load is 70% of rated load. 24VDC on the
73FSL circuit indicates the truck is 100% loaded. The
73OSL circuit is not currently used.
