I have a 10k load cell with signal conditioner that I need to read on a PLC. I can buy a Micrologix that only go up to 12 bit (4095). So the resolution I could get with that is about 2.5 lbs. I want a resolution of 1 lb.
I know I could get an analog card or another load cell but I am already over budget for this.
I only need to read up to 2000 lbs max from the load cell. Is there a legit way to set the full span in a plc for half the 0 to 10v signal? That way I could get double resolution on the load cell?
