Connecting Load Sensor Inputs
The Liftlog™XL supports two load sensor inputs (marked MAIN and AUX) of various types:
a)
Strain gauge input (e.g. CASWA rope clamp load cell);
b)
4-20mA input;
c)
0-10V input;
d)
ABUS LIS Q, F1 or F2 inputs.
The load sensor for the MAIN hoist is connected to pins 1-7, the load sensor for the auxiliary hoist
connects to pins 28-34.
It can also accept wireless inputs for both the MAIN and AUX hooks via HoistNet.
3.3.5.1
Strain gauge input
When using a strain gauge load cell to measure the load on either the MAIN or the AUX hooks, all
four wires from the strain gauge need to be connected. For the MAIN hook, these should be
connected as follows:
The AUX hook can be connected in the same way using pins 30 to 33.
