Product catalog summary
General Installation Guide
This section outlines the steps for installing, calibrating, testing, and using the ED4-PC SkidWeigh Plus V1.12 Series. It highlights the importance of following the ADMINISTRATION MENU guide for efficient setup and calibration. For further assistance, customer support is available.
Safety Precautions
During installation, disconnect the vehicle battery. Securely mount components and route cables to avoid interference with vehicle controls. Installation should be conducted by qualified technicians. Use soldering or crimp connectors for wire connections, ensuring they are mechanically sound and insulated. The system connects directly to the vehicle's ignition switch (12 to 55 VDC) and does not have an on-off switch.
Electro-Magnetic Compatibility
The system complies with CE directive 89/336 (EMC) and standards EN 61000-6-2 and EN 61326-1 for interference stability and emission.
Overview of Components
The system includes a digital indicator with an impact module, a hydraulic pressure transducer, and an installation manual. The digital indicator displays the software version upon power-up.
Operational Principle
The system uses a hydraulic pressure transducer in the vehicle's lifting circuit to initiate a weighing cycle when a load is lifted. The pressure increase is converted into a load weight reading. The impact module self-calibrates upon power-up.
Pressure Transducer Installation
Install the transducer in the hydraulic line between the lift control valve and lift cylinder. Ensure the hydraulic circuit is pressure-free before installation. Use thread seal for a tight fit.
Mounting Location for Digital Indicator
Mount the indicator vertically using the provided bracket. Ensure it is visible and within reach of the operator, without obstructing their view.
Electrical Connections
The system operates from 12 to 55 V DC. Specific wire connections are detailed for both the digital indicator and pressure transducer. The system includes internal short circuit protection.
Quick Test for Electrical Connections
After connecting power and the transducer, perform a quick test by turning on the ignition. The display should activate and show a load weight when the forks are lifted.
Administrative Menu Instructions
Access the menu by pressing F9 and entering a password. Set the date/time manually or automatically via a wireless RF platform. Configure the vehicle ID with a maximum of 3 digits (5 digits with RFID).
Overview: The SkidWeigh Plus system allows for downloading recorded data onto a USB drive, with instructions provided on the LCD display. This function is protected within the Supervisor Menu to ensure data integrity.
Data Management: Once data is uploaded to the USB, the system prompts the user to erase the SDRAM. The user can choose to erase or retain the data, after which the system returns to the main screen.
Calibration Procedure: The ED4-PC SkidWeigh Plus system features automatic calibration by lifting empty and loaded forks. A known load weight is required for calibration, which should be between 30-50% of the lift truck's maximum capacity. The system can display weight in pounds or kilograms based on user input.
Calibration Steps: 1. Lower empty forks to the ground. 2. Enter the Administration Menu using F9 and a password. 3. Select 'CALIBRATION 1' and follow LCD instructions. 4. Lift empty forks, then lower them. 5. Input known load weight and lift loaded forks. 6. The system stores the calibrated weight and prompts to lower the forks.
Optional Features: The system includes an optional overload warning function and impact value setup, which can be configured in the Supervisor Menu. Audible warnings for low and high impacts can be set, with durations from 1 to 60 seconds.
Operator Guide: The system is ready to operate once the ignition switch is turned on. Operators should insert forks into the pallet, lower them, and lift the load slightly above the ground without manipulating the vehicle. The load weight is displayed on the LCD, and data can be saved to a USB or printed.
Additional Functions: The system supports Waybill ID# input, parts count by weight, TARE value setup, and accumulative load weight total. Data is recorded automatically and can be uploaded in Excel format.

Operational principal The ED4-PC SkidWeigh Plus operational principal is based on the hydraulic pressure transducer mounted in the vehicle lifting hydraulic circuit that will automatically activate the “weighing cycle / specific algorithm ” every time a skid load is lifted just above the ground. The increase in pressure is converted in an electronic signal at the sample rate of 16000 readings which is converted into a load weight reading. The impact module operating range is from .5 to 16 G’s and is located inside digital indicator. Impact system is self calibrating each time the power turned...

Weighing scale function calibration The ED4-PC SkidWeigh Plus calibration is automatic and is done by lifting empty and loaded forks (or any other attachment such as paper clamp) just above the ground. MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE A KNOWN LOAD WEIGHT AND KEEP IT NEARBY TO COMPLETE THE CALIBRATION. For the best results use at least minimum calibration load test weight of 30 to 50% of maximum lifting capacity of the lift truck. Use customer floor scale or find a known skid load weight within the operational facility. Important: If you want the system to show load weight in pounds, use the known load weight...

You must activate lift control valve and lift the empty forks just above the ground the same way that you would normally do when lifting loads. Do not slow down this lifting operational cycle, do not tilt the load, do not lift to different heights or move vehicle. Lift empty forks just above the ground . After few seconds the LCD display will show CALIBRATION 1 LOWER FORKS At this point you must lower the empty forks to the ground. The LCD display prompt you to input known calibration load weight. CALIBRATION 1 WEIGHT = ❏ Pick up a known load weigh and lower the loaded forks to the ground. (Our...
