1. Introduction
AD4329A-DLC is a digital load cell weighing indicator that enables use of truck scales.
By combining the AD4329A-DLC with an A&D digital load cells (LCCD20 series), a weighing system with higher
lightning resistance performance can be built, and electronic corner adjustment can be performed easily andprecisely. Up to eight digital load cells can be connected in parallel.
AD4329-DLC's interface has standard serial output to enable connection to A&D printers and displays and RS232C to enable connection to PCs. In addition, comparator relay output can be provided as an option.

1.1. Safety precautions
For safe and correct usage, read the following precautions carefully before using the indicator.
Precautions on design
WARNING● Provide an external safety circuit to the indicator so that the safety of the whole system can be
secured even if errors occur in the external power supply or in the indicator.

Precautions on installation
WARNING● Do not use the indicator in the following environments:- Where the temperature and the humidity exceed the specifications- Where corrosive gases or flammable gases are present- Where the indicator gets wet with oil, chemicals or water
Please note that securing the indicator to the control panel will provide the indicator outside of thecontrol panel with IP65 protection.
● When installing or removing the indicator, be sure to turn off all the external power supplies used
beforehand.
Precautions on wiring
WARNING● When wiring the indicator, be sure to turn off all the external power supplies used beforehand.
● When wiring is complete, be sure to attach the terminal block cover provided with the indicator.
● Be sure to ground the indicator.

CAUTION● Do not clamp control wires or communication cables with power lines, and do not place them close topower lines.
● Place the load cell cable sufficiently away from high frequency circuits such as high voltage powerlines and inverter load circuits.

4.2. Connection diagram
When you connect the digital load cells in parallel, use a junction box for digital load cells. Connecting theweighing indicator to four digital load cells is as shown below. Recommended cable is AX-KO3217 (A&D).

4.3. When connecting more than 6 load cells
When connecting more than six load cells, multiple junction boxes are required.
In that case, to have a termination resistance of 100 Ω, do the following.
Leave the jumper (JP1) in the junction box installed furthest from the weighing indicator as is and cut thejumpers (JP1) in the other junction boxes, using wire cutters.
Fig.4 shown below is an example connection diagram when using an AD4388-4 and an AD4388-6 to connect
eight digital load cells.

5.2. Serial number settings of digital load cells
Before operation, check the serial number on the digital load cell. And set the serial number specified for each
digital load cell to the AD4329A-DLC.
When your weighing scale is built using four digital load cells, the serial numbers for four units must be set.
When setting the serial number, set it in the order for corner adjustment starting from "Cf-101".
Check the serial number marked on each digital load cell.
For example, with the LCCD20 series (manufactured by A&D), it is marked on the rating label on the body.
The last seven of the nine digits of serial number "SER." are the serial number to be set.

7.2. Display OFF (Standby mode)
When [OPR/STB] is pressed, the display is turned off.

7.3. Net / Gross value selection
Every time [NET/GROSS] is pressed, the displayed value is changed between net and gross.
The GROSS mark illuminates when the displayed value is the gross value.
The NET mark illuminates when the displayed value is the net value

7.4. Push zero
Pressing [ZERO] sets the gross value to zero, when the weighing value is within the zero range (CF-002) and the
MD mark is illuminated.

7.5. Zero tracking
The gross value is set to zero automatically when the gross value meets the zero-tracking condition (F-01).

7.6. Power-on zero
After turning on the power, the gross value is set to zero automatically when the gross value is within the zerorange (CF-002).
If you use power-on zero, set power-on zero (CF-005) to 1: Enable (default).
If the gross value is not within zero compensation range, the figure at the right will be
displayed.

------

Pressing [MODE] moves to weighing mode without power-on zero.

7.7. Zero detection
Center of zero is detected and the ZERO mark illuminates when the gross value is within 1/4 of the scale interval.

7.8. Stability detection
Stability is detected and the MD mark illuminates when the weight value meets the stability detection condition (F02).

7.9. Tare
Tare is a function that saves the current gross value as a tare value and set the net value to zero.
The function is used to display a net value with the container weight subtracted from the total weight if you put anobject into a container to weigh it.
● Tare execution
When the MD mark is illuminated, pressing [TARE] saves the tare value and the net value is displayed.
● Tare clear
The tare value is set to 0 by the following operations:・Pressing [TARE] when the gross value is 0d.

・Power-on zero・Push zero

7.10. Preset tareThis subtracts a preset tare from the gross value.
If you use the preset tare, set preset tare function (CF-006) to 0: Enable. Default is 1: Disable.
Set the item by the following key operations.
1.

Press [PRESET TARE].

2.

The current preset tare value is displayed with the preset tare mark illuminated.

3.

Press [ZERO] to move the flashing digit. Press [TARE] to change the value of the flashing digit.
