How do I connect Mixmate into an existing scale with a display?
Connecting an existing scale with display to Mixmate
- Find the connection point in either the scale display or in the junction box where the load cells all connect together.
- Using a digital multi meter, measure the voltage between Excitation+ ( Could be Reference+ or V+ ) and Excitation- ( Could be Reference- or V- ). If the measured value is less than 5 volts, connecting to the existing system will not work.
- Connect Excitation+ ( Reference+ or V+ ) to Pin 7.
- Connect Excitation- ( Reference - or V- ) to Pin 6.
- Connect Load Cell+ to Pin 2
- Connect Load Cell- to Pin 3
**NOTE** Refer to manufacturer's owners manual for more information about the scale that you are connecting to Mixmate.
