SeleCt the CorreCt SenSor inpUt Channel
Next, press Green button to “CHANGE” to either “Analog Input1” or “Analog Input2” and “SELECT”. 2 Wire 4..20 mA Sensor = Select Analog Input 23 Wire Voltage Sensor = Select Analog Input 1
Set the no load MiniMUM referenCe ValUe
Start the fork truck, raise the tynes and lower them slightly to remove any hydraulic pressure lock, and ensure that they are not resting on the ground. Then press “SET”.
Set the tyneS at fUll load ValUe (MaxiMUM preSSUre ValUe)
Raise the tynes until they top out, Continue to drive the tynes upwards by keeping the lift valve open and the engine revving and press ‘Set’ for Tynes at Full Load. press “SET”.
poUndS or KiloGraMS? SeleCt and Set the deSired UnitS.
Calibrate a KnoWn WeiGht
Pick up a known weight with the tynes and raise to the correct stage of the mast that you wish to weigh at (some forklifts have a multistage mast which means the weight calibration will only be correct for a particular lift height range). Select the known weight amount using the middle directional ‘mouse’ button; UP/DOWN to change the number dramatically and use LEFT/RIGHT to change the number slightly. Then press ‘Set’
SeleCt yoUr readoUt reSolUtion
Change the resolution to set the smallest change in value of the displayed weight, recommended at no lower than about 50, or 100 units. This is useful to stop the displayed weight from varying whilst the vehicle is moving. Use the ‘mouse’ button to adjust, UP/DOWN and LEFT/RIGHT as explained above in 7.
do yoU reqUire an oVerload alarM?
a) Select Yes or No.
b) Select the percentage of maximum load for the Alarm using the ‘mouse’ button.
C) Select how many seconds overloaded before the alarm goes off.
yoU’re done! to operate yoUr WEIGHT GAUGE:
Remove the Green wire from ground, tape up and hide away. This will return the weight gauge to normal opera-tion. During operation press the middle “ZERO” button to set the zero point of the gauge. This is useful when determining the weight difference of multiple loads. Remember to “ZERO” again when tynes are unloaded to go back to normal operation. Always ensure you weigh your load at the correct mast stage, stabilise the load to get a good reading, and slightly lower the load to release any hydraulic pressure locks.

![Page 8: Fleet Weigh Installation Guide - Speedshield · pda or laptop, in WhiCh CaSe preSS “next”. yoU’re done! to operate yoUr pre Start CheCkliSt: Remove the Green wire from ground,](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070923/5fbbf91af188f2050b511e52/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
MODULE INSTALLATION
Install monitor near the user’s line of sight, preferably near the rear vision mirror on the A-Pillar of a fork truck. Take care not to over tighten the mounting screws on the display case, as this can cause internal damage. Take care to route the harness cable out of harms way, preferably inside the A-pillar channel.
HArNESS INSTALLATION
Step 1. Battery Connection
RED WIRE = Permanent Fused 12VDC Supply at BatteryThe Red wire in the harness is permanent 12VDC supply to the unit. Connect this RED wire with a 5Amp fuse in series (provided in kit) to Battery positive terminal or 12V power supply. DO NOT install the fuse until the harness is fully installed and ready to test.
BLACK WIRE = Permanent Battery GroundConnect the Black wire to the battery ground terminal. If the vehicle has a Ground Isolation Switch, connect the Black Wire to the front of this switch to ensure correct functionality. Take care if you choose to get your Ground from a screw into the chassis of the vehicle, this device needs a very good, low resistance, ground source.
Step 2. On/Off Switching
ORANGE / WHITE WIRE = ON/OFF INPuT
The Fleet Weigh unit needs a negative switched input to tell it to turn on.The Orange/White wire is used to tell the unit to turn on and off. The unit needs a NEGATIVE switching signal. Some ideas include:
Method 1: Seat ActivationConnect the Orange/White wire to a normally open switch in the vehicles seat, and ground the common on the switch contact. When someone sits in the seat the Display will turn on, and turn off again when the person exits the vehicle.
Method 2: Key Switch ActivationConnect the Orange/White wire to Pin 87 on an Automotive Relay (Relay & Base Supplied in Kit). Connect a Battery Ground Feed to Pin 30 and Pin 85. Connect a Key Switch On/Igni-tion Feed to Pin 86. (Take care to ensure Positive on Coil Pin 86 and Negative on Coil 85 as the relay supplied is Diode Protected)
Step 3. Setup Mode Input
GREEN WIRE = SETuP Input
The Fleet Weigh unit needs the GREEN SETUP WIRE grounded to tell it to enter SETUP MODE.(See ‘Set Up’ page for Calibration instructions)The GREEN wire is used to enter Fleet Weigh SETUP mode. To enter SETUP mode, you ground the GREEN wire while the unit is ON. In nor-mal operation, tape the end of the green wire and keep it out of sight.
Optional Switched Cut-out / Inhibit relay Output
WHITE/ORANGE WIRE = INHIBIT RELAy DRIVER OuTPuT (SWITCHED GROuND OuTPuT)
The inhibit switched output is used to cut-out the vehicle’s ignition when/if required by the seat, buckle, pre-start check, and/or card swipe interlocks. You will not need this function for simple display requirements such as weigh scale readout.Connect the White/Orange wire to Pin 85 of the cut-out relay.Connect a permanent switched 12V supply to Pin 86 of the relay.Locate and cut the vehicle’s ignition crank wire and join each end of the cut wire to Pin 87 and Pin 30 normally open contacts of the relay.

Optional Weigh Scale Pressure Sensor Input (Pressure Sensor Connection)
GREY WIRE = WEIGht/PREssuRE sEnsoR InPut
You may use either a 2-wire Current Loop Pressure sensor or a 3-Wire Variable Voltage Output sensor with your Fleet Weigh unit.
Method A: If you plan to use a TWO WIRE 4..20 mA pressure sensor then:Make sure that the Grey wire enters PIN 2 of the Fleet Weigh Black 12 Way Connector. (Default configura-tion)Connect the GREY WIRE to the Signal pin on the sensor.Connect a switched power feed from the ignition key switch to the Positive pin on the sensor.
Method B: If you plan to use a THREE WIRE pressure sensor then:Make sure that the GREY wire enters PIN 1 of the Fleet Weigh Black 12 Way Connector (this is NOT the default configuration).Remember: Fleet Weigh can tolerate a maximum input signal of 18 VDC although you can use 5 VDC, 10 VDC or 12 VDC sensors.Connect the GREY WIRE to the Signal pin on the sensor.Connect a SWITCHED power and ground feed to the sensor per the sensors instructions.
Optional Speed Sensor Connection
PInK WIRE = sPEEd sIGnal InPut
You may use either a Three Wire Proximity sensor to detect gear tooth movement or your vehicle’s existing speed signal wire in order to obtain a speed signal input for Fleet Weigh.
Method A: If you plan to install a Hall Effect (Three Wire) proximity sensor then:Determine a suitable position to mount the sensor (typically the crown wheel).Mount within 1mm of the teeth.Connect the Pink wire to the signal wire of the sensor.Connect a SWITCHED ignition power and battery ground feed to the sensor per the sensors instructions.
Method B: If you plan to use the vehicle’s existing speed signal wire:Locate the speed signal wire on the vehicle.Tap the Pink wire onto the vehicle’s speed signal wire.Note: Not all signal types will be accepted by the Fleet Weigh unit – you can order separately a speed signal conditioner from Speedshield to make signals acceptable to Fleet Weigh.
Optional Seat Belt Buckle Interlock Connection
GREEn / BluE WIRE = sEat BElt BucKlE InPut
The Green/Blue wire in the harness is used for the Buckle interlock. This allows use of the Fleet Weigh seat belt interlockfunction.The seat belt buckle needs a Normally Open NEGATIVE switching signal.
Optional Proximity Card Reader Connection
WhItE/BluE = PRoxImItY caRd REadER communIcatIon lInE
REd/WhItE = PRoxImItY caRd REadER PoWER
A proximity card reader is used for user identification.This unit is supplied separately and is pre-wired with harness to ‘plug’ into Fleet Weigh 12 Way connectors. It is supplied with wiring dia-gram.
Serial Port Wires
The unit can be used for a multitude of functions, such as a pre-start check list, weigh scale, operator interlocks, speed display and alert. To set up advanced features the unit has an RS232 port that can be plugged into a Laptop computer. The Yellow / Black and wires represent RX and TX for a normal RS232 connection. This is not warranted for simple use of Fleet Weigh and these wires are not required.
