6.1
iQUBE Diagnostic
The
iQUBE
connector board provides bi-color cell
status LEDs (see Figure 2-2 on page 4) that indicate
the status of connected load cells. Table 6-1 lists the
cell status indications shown by the LEDs.
6.2
Cell Mate Relationships
Cell mates to a specific load cell are defined as the
load cells that are horizontally or vertically adjacent to
each other. In the platform illustration below LC2 and
LC 3 are cell mates to LC1 and LC2, LC3, and LC6
are cell mates to LC4.

6.3
Diagnostic Tests
The
iQUBE
provides a number of diagnostic tests, including boundary, weighing, and system tests (see Table 6-4
on page 37 for a list of diagnostic error messages). The table below describes the tests that can be enabled or
disabled in the diagnostics of the
iQUBE
.
