Introduction 1
About This Manual
This manual is intended for use by service technicians responsible for installing and servicing IQ plus®710
digital weight indicators.
This manual applies to indicators using Version2.1 of the IQ plus 710 software. See Section 10.9 on page 73 for
a summary of software changes included in this release.
Configuration and calibration of the indicator can be accomplished using the indicator front panel keys, the EDP
command set, or Version 3.0 or later of the Revolution™configuration utility (Revolution III). See Section 3.1 on
page 14 for information about configuration methods.
Some procedures described in this manual require work inside the indicator enclosure. These procedures are
to be performed by qualified service personnel only.
Authorized distributors and their employees can view or download this manual from the Rice
Lake Weighing Systems distributor site at www.ricelake.com.
The Operator Card included with this manual provides basic operating instructions for users of the IQ
plus 710. Please leave the Operator Card with the indicator when installation and configuration are
complete.
1.0 Introduction
The IQ plus 710 is a single-channel digital weight
indicator housed in a NEMA 4X/IP66-rated stainless
steel enclosure. The indicator front panel consists of a
29-button keypad with a large, seven-digit,
14-segment, vacuum fluorescent display,
two-character dot-matrix annunciator field, and a
sixteen-character dot-matrix prompt field. Features
include:
• Drives up to eight 350Ω or sixteen 700Ωload
cells
• Supports 4- and 6-wire load cell connections
• Eight configurable digital inputs
• Eight digital outputs
• Electronic data processing (EDP) port for full
duplex RS-232 or RS-485 communications at
up to 19200 bps
• Printer port for full duplex RS-232 and
output-only 20 mA current loop
communications at up to 19200 bps
• Optional analog output module provides 0–10
VDC or 4–20 mA tracking of gross or net
weight values
• Optional Remote I/O Interface for
communication with PLC®and SLC™
controllers using the Allen-Bradley®Remote
I/O networks1
• Optional interface for Profibus®DP network
communications2
• Available in 115 VAC and 230 VAC versions
The IQ plus 710 is NTEP-certified for Classes III and
III L at 10,000 divisions. See Section 10.10 on
page 74 for more information about NTEP and OIML
certifications and Measurement Canada approval.
1.1 Operating Modes
The IQ plus 710 has three modes of operation:
Normal mode
Normal mode is the weighing mode of the
indicator. The indicator displays gross, net, or tare
weights as required, using the secondary display
to indicate scale status and the type of weight
value displayed. Once configuration is complete
and a legal seal is affixed to the back of the
indicator, this is the only mode in which the IQ
plus 710 can operate.
Setup mode
Most of the procedures described in this manual
require the indicator to be in setup mode,
including configuration and calibration.
To enter setup mode, remove the large fillister
head screw from the enclosure backplate. Insert a
screwdriver or a similar tool into the access hole
and press the setup switch once. The indicator
display changes to show the word CONFIG.
Test mode
Test mode provides a number of diagnostic
functions for the IQ plus 710 indicator. Like setup
mode, test mode is entered using the setup switch.
See Section 10.8 on page 72 for more information
about entering and using test mode.

4IQ plus 710 Installation Manual
2.0 Installation
This section describes procedures for connecting load
cells, digital I/O, and serial communications cables to
the IQ plus 710 indicator. Instructions for field
installation of the analog output option and
replacement of the CPU board are included, along
with assembly drawings and parts lists for the service
technician.
• Use a wrist strap to ground yourself and protect
components from electrostatic discharge (ESD) when
working inside the indicator enclosure.
• This unit uses double pole/neutral fusing which could
create an electric shock hazard. Procedures requiring
work inside the indicator must be performed by
qualified service personnel only.
• The supply cord serves as the power disconnect for the
IQ plus 710. The power outlet supplying the indicator
must be installed near the unit and be easily accessible.
2.1 Unpacking and Assembly
Immediately after unpacking, visually inspect the IQ
plus 710 to ensure all components are included and
undamaged. The shipping carton should contain the
indicator with attached tilt stand, this manual, and a
parts kit. If any parts were damaged in shipment,
notify Rice Lake Weighing Systems and the shipper
immediately.
The parts kit contains the items listed below:
• Capacity and identification labels.
• Two 8-32NC x 7/16 fillister head screws (PN
30623). These screws occupy the holes above
and on either side of the setup screw on the
indicator backplate (see Figure 2-5 on page 8).
• Ten 8-32NC x 3/8 machine screws (PN 14862)
for the indicator backplate (see #29 in
Figure 2-9 on page 13).
• Twelve bonded sealing washers (PN 45042) for
backplate screws included in the parts kit.
• Four cord grip reducing glands (PN 15664).
• Four rubber bumpers (“feet”) for the tilt stand,
PN 42149.
• 6-position screw terminal (PN 70599) for
connector J1; two 7-position screw terminals
(PN 70600) for connectors J4 and J12; two
10-position screw terminals (PN 70601) for
connectors J7 and J8.
• One kep nut (PN 14676) for grounding cable
shield wires against the backplate.
2.2 Enclosure Disassembly
The indicator enclosure must be opened to connect
cables for load cells, communications, digital inputs,
digital outputs, and analog output.
The IQ plus 710 has no on/off switch.
Before opening the unit, ensure the power
cord is disconnected from the power
outlet.
Ensure power to the indicator is disconnected, then
place the indicator face-down on an antistatic work
mat. Remove the screws that hold the backplate to the
enclosure body, then lift the backplate away from the
enclosure and set it aside.
NOTE: With the backplate removed, check the battery to
ensure it has not been jarred loose from the battery holder
(B1) in shipping.
2.3 Cable Connections
The IQ plus 710 provides five cord grips for cabling
into the indicator: one for the power cord, three to
accommodate communications, digital I/O, and
analog output cables, and one metal cord grip for the
load cell cable. The three nylon cord grips come with
a plug installed to prevent moisture from entering the
enclosure. Depending on your application, remove the
plug from any cord grip that will be used and install
cables as required.
Except for the power cord and load cell cables, all
cables routed through the cord grips should be
grounded to the ground stud on the indicator
backplate.
2.3.1 Load Cells
To attach cable from a load cell or junction box, use
the following procedure to cable through the metal
cord grip:
1. Disconnect indicator from power source.
2. Place indicator face-down on an antistatic work
mat. Remove screws that hold the backplate to
the enclosure body.
3. Loosen cord grips, then route cables through the
stainless steel cord grip. Determine cable length
required to reach connector J1. Mark the cable at
the inside edge of the cord grip (see Figure 2-1
on page 5).

Installation 5
Figure 2-1. Mark Length of Cable at Inside of Cord Grip
4. Remove cable from cord grip. Strip insulation
from the marked position to the end of the cable.
5. For cables with braided shielding, cut the shield
at the same location as the insulation, then strip
an additional 15 mm of insulation from the cable
to allow the shield to contact the inside of the
metal cord grip (see Figure 2-2).
Figure 2-2. Braided Shield Cabling
For cables with foil-type shielding, strip an
additional 15 mm of insulation from the cable.
Cut the foil shield at a location about 15 mm
inside the enclosure, then fold the foil shield
back on the cable (see Figure 2-3). Ensure silver
(conductive) side of foil is turned outward for
contact with the metal cord grip.
Figure 2-3. Foil Shielded Cabling
6. Cut the shield wire just inside the enclosure (see
Figure 2-3). Shield wire function is provided by
contact with the metal cord grip.
7. Route cables through cord grip so cable shield
contacts cord grip fitting as shown in Figures
2-2 and 2-3. Tighten cord grip.
8. Next, remove connector J1 from the board. The
connector plugs into a header on the board (see
Figure 2-4). Wire the load cell cable from the
load cell or junction box to connector J1 as
shown in Table 2-1.
9. If using 6-wire load cell cable (with sense
wires), remove jumpers JP1 and JP2 before
reinstalling connector J1. For 4-wire installation,
leave jumpers JP1 and JP2 on.
10.Finish installation using cable mounts and ties to
secure cables inside of indicator enclosure.
When connections are complete, reinstall connector J1
onto the header so that it snaps securely into place.
Use two cable ties to secure the load cell cable to the
inside of the enclosure.
Setting the Load Cell Compensation Jumper
The load cell compensation jumper JP5 (near the
transformer on the CPU board; see Figure 2-4) must be
set ON for load cells with unbalanced bridges. The
compensation jumper has the effect of lowering the
positive excitation voltage. Uncompensated unbalanced
load cells can cause instability or calibration errors.
For RL1040 and RL1042 load cells, set the
compensation jumper as follows:
• RL1040 load cells: jumper OFF
• RL1042 load cells: jumper ON
For other load cell types, use the following procedure
to determine the correct jumper position;
1. Disconnect load cell from indicator and use
an ohmmeter to measure the following:
• +EXC to +SIG, +EXC to –SIG
• –EXC to +SIG, –EXC to –SIG
Measured values between the excitation line
and each of the signal lines should be within
2–3Ω.
2. If the +EXC measurements are Š 5% larger than
the –EXC measurements, set the compensation
jumper in the ON position. If the +EXC
measurements are < 5% greater (or are less) than
the –EXC measurements, set the jumper in the
OFF position.
