2.4 Cable Connections
The 680HE provides four cord grips at the bottom of the enclosure for cabling into the indicator. One of the cord grips is used for
the power supply and the other three are used to accommodate the load cell cable and the serial, digital inputs and outputs,
Ethernet or the optional analog output communications cables. An RJ45 connector can also be added as an available option.
Cable plugs are included in the parts kit and must be installed in open cord grips to prevent moisture from entering the
enclosure. The optional RJ45 connector comes with a cap to seal the connector when not in use. See the following sections to
install cables as required for the application. The recommended cable strip length is 0.25'' (7 mm) for all 680HE connectors.
See Figure 2-4 for the recommended assignments for the 680HE cord grips.
Only connect unit to equipment certified to IEC 60950, IEC 62368, IEC 61010 or similar.

2.4.2 Cable Shield Grounding
Except for the power cord, all cables routed through the cord grips must be shield grounded.
• Use hardware provided in the parts kit to install shielding clamps on the back panel of the enclosure
• Install only the necessary amount of shielding clamps for the cord grips to be used
• Remove the insulated jackets and shielding per the following instructions
Shielding Procedure
1. Install the shielding clamps to the threaded grounding holes on the back panel of the enclosure using the clamp
screws provided in the parts kit. Finger tighten the screws at this time.
2. Route the cables through the cord grips and the shielding clamps to determine the cable lengths required to reach the
appropriate cable connectors.
3. Mark cables to remove the insulated jacket as described below for Foil Shielded Cables and Braid Shielded Cables.
Foil Shielded Cables
Figure 2-5. Foil Shielded Cable
1. Strip the insulated jacket and foil 1/2'' (15 mm) past the shielding clamp.
2. Strip another 1/2'' of the insulated jacket, leaving the foil shielding exposed.
3. Fold the foil shielding back on the cable where the cable passes through the clamp.
4. Ensure the silver (conductive) side of the foil is turned outward.
5. Wrap the shield wire around the cable, ensuring it contacts the foil where the cable passes through the clamp.
6. Torque the shielding clamp screw to 10 in-lb (1.1 N-m), ensuring the clamp is around the cable and contacting the
shield wire.

2.4.3 Power Cable
AC versions of the 680HE are shipped with the AC power cable already installed.
The AC power cable is grounded to the threaded grounding hole on the back panel of the enclosure between the cord
grip and the power supply connections rather than using Pin 3. This is a UL requirement.
2.4.4 Load Cell Cable
To attach the cable from a load cell or junction box, route cable to the J1 connector ( Section 2.5 on page 11 ). Connector for the
cable is included in the parts kit. See Table 2-5 for wiring the load cell cable from the load cell or junction box to connector.
A ferrite from the parts kit must be applied to the load cell cable within 1'' (25 mm) of the load cell. The cable must be
sent through the ferrite twice.
For a 4-wire installation leave pins 3 and 4 empty on the connector.
For a 6-wire installation set the SENSE parameter to 6-WIRE in the CONFIG menu (Section 4.4.1 on page 23).
2.4.5 RS-232 Serial Communications
The J3 connector (Section 2.5 on page 11) is intended to provide a connection point for the RS-232 serial communications. Two
RS-232 ports are available. See Table 2-6 for the pin assignments for the J3 connector.
RS-232 Port 1 = RS2321 and RS-232 Port 2 = RS2322 in the 680HE menu structure.

2.4.6 RS-485/422 Serial Communications
The J4 connector (Section 2.5 on page 11) is intended to provide a connection point for the RS-485/422 serial communications.
See Table 2-7 for the pin assignments for the J4 connector.
For transmit connections TXZ = TDB and TXY = TDA.
2.4.7 Digital I/O
The Digital I/O port, J5 connector (Section 2.5 on page 11) is intended to be connected to both digital inputs and outputs.
Digital inputs can be set to provide many functions, including most keypad functions except MENU. Digital inputs are active low
(0 VDC) and inactive high (5 VDC). Use the Digital I/O menu to configure the digital inputs.
Digital outputs are used to control relays which drive other equipment. Outputs are designed to sink, rather than source current.
Each output is an open collector circuit, capable of sinking 20 mA when active. Digital outputs are active when low or at 0 VDC,
with reference to the 5 VDC supply.
Use the Digital I/O menu to set the function of the Digital I/O pins to OUTPUT and then use the Setpoints menu to configure the
digital outputs. See Table 2-8 for the pin assignments for the J5 connector.

2.4.8 Micro USB Device Communications
The Micro USB port, J7 connector (Section 2.5 on page 11), is intended to be connected to a PC only and should only be used
as a service port. It appears as a Virtual COM Port and is assigned a “COMx” designation. Applications communicate through
the port like a standard RS-232 communications port.
The driver must be installed on the PC before the device port can be used. With the PC and 680HE powered on, connect a USB
cable from the PC to the micro USB connector (J7) on the 680HE. The PC recognizes if a device has been connected, and
attempts to install the driver needed to make it work. The driver can also be downloaded from the Rice Lake website.
If using Windows 7 or later and the PC is connected to the Internet, the operating system may be able to install the
drivers automatically.
When the individual drivers are installed, a new COM Port designation is assigned for each physical USB port the 680HE is
connected to on the PC.
For example, if the PC has two physical RS-232 COM Ports, they most likely are designated COM1 and COM2. When
connecting the 680HE to a USB port on the PC, it is assigned the next available port designation, or in this case, COM3. When
plugging into the same physical USB port on the PC, the port designation is again COM3. If plugging into another physical USB
port on the PC, it is assigned the next available designation, in this case COM4.
After the drivers are installed, use Windows® Device Manager to determine the COM Port designation which was assigned to
the USB port, or open the application to be used with the 680HE, such as Revolution, to see which ports are available.
Configuration of the Micro USB port is done in the USBCOM sub-menu under PORTS in setup mode.
The port can be configured as either a demand port for EDP commands and printing, or as a data streaming port. Other settings
include the termination character(s), echoes, responses, the end-of-line delay and whether or not the 680HE displays a 'print'
message when a print format sends data out the port.
If a computer application has an open communications connection through the Micro USB device port and the
physical cable connection is interrupted, a soft reset must be performed on the 680HE or the power must be cycled
to the 680HE; the connection in the computer application must be disconnected and then reconnected before it
continues to communicate with the 680HE.
For the Micro USB device port, it does not matter what the settings are for Baud, Data Bits, Parity and Stop Bits in the
computer software. The port communicates in the same way regardless of these settings.
This port is not a host port and is not intended to be connected to other devices such as keyboards, memory sticks
or printers.

2.4.9 Ethernet
The 680HE features Ethernet TCP/IP 10Base-T/100Base-TX communication using the J8 connector (Section 2.5 on page 11),
and can support two simultaneous connections, one as a server, the other as a client.
Through an Ethernet network, software applications can communicate with the 680HE using the EDP command set
(Section 7.0 on page 44), or data can be streamed continuously from the 680HE, or printed on demand.
The Ethernet port supports both DHCP and manual configuration of settings such as the IP and netmask. In addition, the TCP
Port number, and the Default Gateway can be configured using the Ethernet sub-menu of the Ports setup menu. For more
information on configuring the Ethernet port see Section 4.4.4.3 on page 29.
Physical connection to the 680HE Ethernet port can be made directly from a PC to the 680HE (AdHoc Network), or through a
network router or switch. The port supports auto-sensing MDI/MDIX cable configuration, allowing either straight-through or
crossover cables to be used. See Table 2-9 for the pin assignments for the J8 connector.
When looking into the enclosure from the backside of the indicator, pin 1 of the J8 connector is at the bottom.
See Table 2-10 and Table 2-11 for the pin assignments when connecting a RJ45 Ethernet cable to the J8 connector. There
are two Ethernet wire standards (T568A and T568B). If the type of cable is unknown, use the wiring option in Table 2-10.
The auto-sensing feature of the Ethernet port allows either of the wiring options to work. Trim the unused wires to get them
out of the way.
