Page 5: Mounting Flush To The Trailer
Mounting Flush to the Trailer A flush mounted scale is mounted directly to the side of the trailer. 1. Remove the old scale, you will need to expand the port hole sizes for the new scale. Make sure the back side of the location is free of obstacles and debris that would interfere with the installation. 2. Use the supplied template (#904-0025) or hold the scale in the location you will mount it for reference and cut a hole large enough to fit the port connections on the back. At this point, determine whether you want to connect the power to the display before or after you secure it to the trailer. If after, proceed to step 6 before completing steps 3-5. Reference chart on pg. 5 for connecting power to the scale. 3. Feed the power cables to the back of the trailer display from below the edge of the trailer or through the previously cut hole. 4. Remove the 1295 ComLink cable (only applies if you have a prior model that had a 1295 ComLink). This will be replaced with the new interface cable (#014-0350-101). 5. Plug the power interface cable into Port 1 on the back of scale display. 6. Place the scale over the space you have prepared on the trailer, making sure port holes fit the hole on the trailer. Use the provided bolts, rubber washers (one for each front and back of the scale) and nuts to secure the scale to the side of the trailer. 7.

Page 8: Alarm Installation
Alarm Installation Note: If you ordered the Alarm Cable with your scale, follow the below instructions for install. Insert the Alarm cable into Port 2 on the back of the scale. The gray, sealed wire from the main wiring harness is the alarm circuit output. It can be connected to any self-grounded alarm device with a current draw of 1.0 amps or less. The alarm output voltage will be the same as the vehicle voltage. You must install a relay for any device that draws more than 1.0 amps. Do not disturb the sealed end of the wire if alarm is not installed. When using an alarm, connect the alarm output wire and the ground return wire to the desired device. Ensure that any unused alarm wires are electrically insulated. IMPORTANT: Leave the dummy plug in Port 2 installed if you are not installing an alarm cable. -

Select the image of a wrench to go to the Setup menu 3. Select the medical bag to go to Scale Diagnostics 4. Press the down arrow until you see information on A/D readings.
