Product catalog summary
Installation & Calibration Manual Overview
This manual provides comprehensive instructions for the installation, calibration, and operation of the ED3-RFID and ED4-RFID SkidWeigh Plus Series. These systems are designed for lift trucks and include an RFID card reader for authorized operator access.

General Installation Guide
The guide details the setup process, including installing the digital indicator and hydraulic pressure transducer. It emphasizes safety measures such as disconnecting the vehicle battery and ensuring secure cable routing.

Safety and Compatibility
Installation should be conducted by qualified technicians. The system adheres to CE standards for electromagnetic compatibility, operates on 12 to 55 VDC, and connects to the vehicle's ignition switch.

Components Overview
The system comprises a digital indicator with an integrated RFID reader, a hydraulic pressure transducer, and a master RFID card for programming operator cards. Its compact design facilitates easy installation on various material handling vehicles.

Operational Principle
The system measures load weight using a hydraulic pressure transducer when a skid load is lifted. A valid RFID card is necessary for vehicle operation.

Installation Instructions
The pressure transducer should be installed in the lifting hydraulic line, and the digital indicator should be mounted in a visible and accessible location for the operator.

Electrical Connections
The manual provides detailed wiring instructions and a quick test procedure to verify correct electrical connections.

Administration Menu
Instructions for accessing the administration menu to calibrate the weighing function and set up date/time are provided. A valid operator card is required to access this menu.

Additional Notes
For lift trucks with hydraulic accumulators, a different digital indicator may be necessary for accurate load weight measurement.

System Setup and Operation
The document outlines the setup and operation of the SkidWeigh Plus system, including clock settings, vehicle ID configuration, data management, calibration, and additional functionalities like Bluetooth pairing and TARE setup.

Clock Setup
The system can be set to AUTO mode for automatic date and time updates via a Base Station or MANUAL mode for manual input.

Vehicle ID Configuration
Users can input a vehicle ID up to 4 digits, or 5 digits if using an RFID card reader, with confirmation via the LCD display.

Data Management
Data can be saved to a USB drive through the Supervisor Menu, ensuring data integrity and security.

Calibration
Calibration involves lifting empty and loaded forks to set known load weights, supporting both pounds and kilograms.

Overload Warning
Users can set an overload value for operational safety, following the calibration process.

Supervisor Menu
Accessible via password, this menu allows setting impact thresholds and configuring audible warnings for low and high impacts.

Lift Truck Operator Menu
Operators can pair Bluetooth devices, set TARE values, and perform parts count functions.

Weighing Function
The system displays load weight after lifting forks just above the ground, with options to calculate accumulative load weight totals and print or send data to a base station.

TARE Function
TARE values can be set or reset to adjust the displayed load weight through the operator menu.

RFID Card Reader
All SkidWeigh products require activation with a valid operator access card. The system supports self-programming, deleting, and management of operator cards.

Technical Specifications
Operating voltage: 12 to 55 VDC. Operating temperature: -35°C to 65°C. Compatible with all 125 kHz HID Proximity cards. Memory capacity for up to 250 operator IDs.

Security and Compliance
Includes transient surge and reverse voltage protection and complies with part 15 of the FCC rules.

Additional Features
LED indicators show the status of the RFID reader. The system can be disabled or enabled using a password if the RFID master card is lost.

Weighing scale function calibration The ED3-AT 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...
