We added a Siemens BW500 belt scale to our system recently. Ive connected the analog output on the scale to the PLC and got the TPH to read.
However, Im having a little trouble with the totalizer side of the scale system.
The manual shows the outputs for the totalizer, and this is where I get confused. The manual shows one group of outputs is for 30 volts max, and another set is for 240 volt max.
The manual does not state whether the voltage is AC or DC, perhaps it dosent matter ? Both connections on the scale are listed as + and - however.
Im wanting to connect these to a 120AC input card on a controllogix card.
IS this possible ?
