2.0 Installation
This section describes procedures for setting up the FlexWeigh System 101 to weigh.
Use a wrist strap to ground yourself and protect components from electrostatic discharge (ESD) when working
inside the indicator enclosure.
The supply cord serves as the power disconnect for the unit. The power outlet supplying the indicator must be
installed near the unit and be easily accessible.
The FlexWeigh System 101 has no on/off switch. Before opening the unit, ensure the power cord is
disconnected from the power outlet.
2.1 Unpacking and Assembly
Immediately after unpacking, visually inspect the unit to ensure all components are included and undamaged.
The shipping carton should contain the FlexWeigh System 101 unit and this manual. If any parts were damaged in shipment,
notify Rice Lake Weighing Systems and the shipper immediately.
2.2 Enclosure Disassembly
The FlexWeigh System 101 must be opened to install option cards and to connect cables for installed option cards.
Ensure power to the indicator is disconnected, then open the enclosure.
2.3 Cable Connections
The FlexWeigh System 101 provides eleven cord grips for cabling into the indicator. The parts kit includes cord grip plugs to
prevent moisture from entering the enclosure. Install these plugs into all cord grips that will not be used in your application.
Use the cable grounding instructions for wiring into the indicator.
