Description 

The House Link HL-10P Low Voltage (LV) provides a 2mV/V or 3mV/V output proportional to the weight of the selected 
bin. The device will connect to the BinTrac Indicator BINS port in parallel with the Smart Summing Box. The BinTrac 
Indicator transmits digital weight data which is converted to a proportionate millivolt output. 

Installation 

The HouseLink HL-10P(LV) is designed

 

to be used with the BinTrac Bin Weighing system. One HouseLink HL-10P(LV) 

can be connected per displayed bin. 

1.  The HouseLink HL-10P(LV) should be mounted no more than 10 

feet from the house control.

 

 

2.  Using a two-conductor cable (ordered separately), connect the 

green wire from the Smart Summing Box (or the BINS port on the 
BinTrac Indicator) to the +COM (OUT) terminal in the HouseLink 
HL-10P(LV) and the white wire from the Smart Summing Box (or 
the BINS port on the BinTrac Indicator) to the  -COM (OUT) 
terminal in the HouseLink HL-10P(LV). See 

Figure 1

.  

3.  Connect the HouseLink HL-10P(LV) to the house control by 

connecting the +EXC (IN) to the + EXC terminal and the 
 

–EXC (IN) to the –EXC terminal of the house control. 

4.  Finally, connect the +mV/V (OUT) from the HouseLink HL-10P(LV) 

to the + SIG of the house control and the 

–mV/V from the HouseLink  

HL-10P(LV) to the 

–SIG of the house control. 

Setup & Configuration 

Dip Switch Setup 

The unit has four dip switches that need to be set up for configuration (circled in 

Figure 2

). 

Bin Selection (S1 and S2) 

This setting allows you to control which bin the HL-10P(LV) 
will send data from (see below).  By default, S1 and S2 are 
both in the OFF position (Bin A).  

  

 

ZERO Tracking (S3) 

This setting allows the ZERO to be tracked with the BinTrac 
Indicator. Setting S3 to the ON position will allow the ZERO 
to be tracked by the house controls. By default, dip switch S3 
is in the OFF position. 

Output Scale Selection (S4) 

This setting provides a 3mV/V output at full scale. Setting S4 to the ON position will instead provide a 2mV/V at full scale. 
By default, dip switch S4 is in the OFF position.
