    10 O PTIONAL OMMUNICATION 10.1 Analogue Output IMPORTANT NOTE The analogue output cable should be shielded. Connect the shield to the protective earth as described in the installation section. FT-111 has analogue output, which is programmable to 4 – 20 mA, 0 – 20 mA, 0 – 5 V or 0 – 10 V. Analog output is automatically adjusted to the weighing range after the calibration.
