OM6008 08/06 Payload Meter III - Section 60 Page 60-9 Wiring and Termination Most of the PLM III truck connections use a heavy- duty cable. This yellow multi-conductor cable uses a 16awg, finely stranded wire designed for continuous motion operations. The conductors are protected by a foil and braided shield for electronic noise immunity and physical strength. This wire is typically termi- nated with a #10 ring terminal. Most connections for the PLM III system are made in the payload meter junction box. TCI Outputs The GE drive system on the 930E/960E requires information from the payload meter regarding the loaded condition of the truck.
There are three outputs from the payload meter to GE to indicate the relative load in the truck. 24VDC on the 73MSL circuit indi- cates that the load is 70% of rated load. 24VDC on the 73FSL circuit indicates the truck is 100% loaded. The 73OSL circuit is not currently used.
