2-1. Load cell connection
The applied voltage and maximum current of the F701-P, to which up to six 350-ohm load cells can
be connected in parallel, are 5V and 90mA, respectively.
■6-wire connection
The load cell input of the F701-P is a 6-wire (remote sense) connection. 6-wire shielded load cell
cable should be used and kept separate from AC or other noise generating wire.
Remote sense lines are used to detect and correct variations in excitation voltage over long cable
runs.

or breakage may occur because excessive voltage is applied to the load cell.
For connection, use the accessory jumper lines.
CAUTION
- The load cell excitation voltage of the F701-P is 5V. Heating or breakage may occur
unless the load cells maximum excitation voltage is 5V or more.
- When using the F701-P with the four-wire load cell connected, be sure to connect
+EXC and +S, and -EXC and -S. Even if +S and -S are not connected, normal
operation is performed apparently, but heating or breakage may occur because
