Operational principal The ED2-RTLT Series SkidWeigh system operational principal is based on the hydraulic pressure transducer mounted in the vehicle lifting hydraulic circuit that will automatically activate the “weighing cycle / specic 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. Pressure transducer installation The pressure transducer must be installed in the lifting hydraulic line between the lift control valve and lift...

Choose the correct location and make sure that: - Indicator is visible and within reach of the operator - Location so that operator does not hit a head Compact size All of the SkidWeigh systems are compact size, housing dimension of only 120 x 80 x 55 mm. Electrical Connections All SkidWeigh systems operate from 12 to 55 V DC. Digital indicator with seven wires single cable - Orange Wire (+) Ignition switch On position - Brown Wire (-) Battery negative - Red Wire, connect to RED wire of the pressure transducer cable - Black Wire, connect to BLACK wire of the pressure transducer cable -...

“Quick test to determine if electrical connections are done right” Note: SkidWeigh weighing calibration function is not done yet at this stage. This procedure is only to test if electrical connections of the system installation into the vehicle is done properly! After you have connected electrical power and pressure transducer cable you can “quickly” check the system operation. - Lower the forks to the ground - Turn On ignition switch - Digital LED display will be activated, showing software version and serial number - Number 8 will be shown on LED display above the Mode sign. -Go ahead and...

Important: If you want the system to show load weight in pounds, use the known load weight in pounds and enter that value accordingly. The same would apply if you want the system to show load weight in kilograms. Use the known load weight in kilograms and enter that value into the system accordingly. Digital Indicator (Calibration and two keys description) - Upper right button “M” is used to enter calibration mode and to shift left to the next digit. - Lower right button “Arrow Up” is used to enter numerical increments from 1-9, wrap around. - Both buttons are used during the system...

Calibration Starting Point For All Of The ED2 Series SkidWeigh Systems --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lower the empty forks to the ground. There should be no hydraulic pressure in lift hydraulic circuit. - Turn ignition switch to on position (electric lift trucks) and start the engine on combustion powered lift trucks - LED display will show software version briey on the right side and number 8 will be shown in the Mode digit. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1. Calibration of empty...

Automatic zeroing is done ! 2. Calibration of loaded forks lifted just above the ground At this point drive your vehicle into the skid load with known weight and lower the loaded forks to the ground. (In this example the known load weight is 4000 kg) - Start entering a known load weight into digital indicator by using arrow up button (increments from 0 to 9) with wrap around function. Start with least signicant digit of your known load weight. - Use the “M” button to increment to next digit on the LED display. First least Second least Third least Forth least - Repeat this procedure until...

- With forks on the ground press “M” button to advance to Mode “6” and lift loaded forks just above the ground. Within few seconds display will show the value of the known load weight. If you lower the loaded forks to the ground the Mode digit will display number 8. System is ready to be used.

User’s Manual Lift truck operator copy Standard Weighing Procedure (All ED2 Series SkidWeigh & FreightWeigh systems) • Insert the forks into the pallet load. Lower the forks to the ground. With no hydraulic pressure in lifting line the Mode LED display will show number 8. System is ready to weigh product on the forks. • Activate the lift control lever and lift the load just above the ground. • As soon as the load is lifted, digital display will go “blank” for a moment and the load weight will be shown on the LED display. Note: To initiate the “Weighing Cycle” the LED indicator must show...
