CHAPTER 2: INDICATOR INSTALLATION
This chapter contains information necessary for proper installation of the Model 350 and Model 355. Please review these instructions before installing your controller.
High voltages may exist within the enclosure. To prevent the risk of electrical shock, ALWAYS unplug the Model 350/355 when opening the enclosure. Installation and servicing of the Model 350/355 should be performed only by authorized and qualified service personnel.
For information on installing options, see Chapter 3: Option Installation. For NTEP and OIML details, see Chapter 6: Legal-for-Trade.
IMPORTANT! The 350 Series indicators do not include an on/off switch and therefore must be installed near a power outlet socket that is easily accessible and in keeping with UL/CSA Safety Standards.
INFORMATION IMPORTANT! Prendre note que les contrôleurs de serie 350 ne sont pas munis d'interrupteurs "Marche / Arrêt". Par conséquent, il devront être installés près d'une source d'alimentation secteur accessible pour demeurer sous les exigences des normes de sécurité UL/CSA.
Mounting
The standard Model 350 zinc die cast enclosure is a NEMA1 (IP 20) equivalent. The Model 350/355 stainless steel enclosure meets NEMA 4X type specifications.
When choosing a mounting location for the Model 350 die cast, ensure that the unit is not installed in a washdown area or conductive dust environment.
DESKTOP MOUNTING
The standard enclosure is designed for desktop mounting. When set on a flat surface, the front face is angled for easy viewing. All wiring enters from the rear and can be secured with the included screw mounted cable ties.
PANEL MOUNTING
The optional panel mount kit allows the zinc die cast enclosure to be installed in a user panel. Allow for 2.00” (57.2mm) depth behind the panel surface. See Panel Mount Kit on page 16 for more details.

Wiring
A description of all wiring terminals is included on the bottom label of the zinc die cast enclosure as shown in Figure 9.
Figure 9: Model 350 Zinc Die Cast Enclosure Wiring Label
LOAD CELL CONNECTIONS
A high quality braided shield cable with 16 to 24 AWG stranded wire is recommended for load cell or summing box connections. Secure the cable by the cable tie on the die cast model, or route it through the strain relief supplied on the back of the internal power supply models (see Figure 10). Either four or six conductor cables can be used.
When using four conductor cables, (+ Excitation) must be connected together with (+ Sense), and (- Excitation) must be connected together with (- Sense) on the Model 350 die cast. Sense jumpers are standard on the Model 350 Stainless Steel (E3 and E4). Utilizing the (+) and (-) Sense leads of six conductor cables provides compensation
for variations in the excitation voltage due to resistance changes in the cable.
Do not tin the ends of the load cell wire! A terminal connection free from the effects of vibration and oxidation can be assured only if the load cell terminals securely grip a bare, stranded wire.
Figure 10: Cable Tie on Die Cast & Connector (J8) on Internal Power Supply Models
SERIAL PORT CONNECTIONS
Before connecting to the serial port, consideration should be given to the communication protocol and to any remote key requirements. For information on remote key operation, refer to Remote Key Operation on page 86. Use Table 1: Serial Port Connections to determine proper wiring to the communication port.
Communication connections are made through the DB9 male connector on the rear of the enclosure or a pigtailed cable through a strain relief (internal power supply model on J6 comm connection). The cable should be 20 to 28 AWG with a braided or foil shield for either model type. For maximum noise immunity on the die cast model, use a mating DB9 connector with a metal hood and a braided shield cable. Ensure that the braid makes good connection with the hood.
11
The maximum recommended cable length is 50 feet (15 meters). However, much longer connections are possible if using a properly shielded, low-capacitance cable.

A communication cable (P/N: 22-30-29752) may be purchased from GSE for connection to a serial device having a DB25 or DB9 connector.
REMOTE KEY CONNECTION
A remote key may be connected to the Model 350/355 communication port to provide remote activation of print, tare, or zero functions.
The connection for the remote key input is between pin 1 and pin 6 of the DB9 communication port connector (see Figure 12 for die cast, Figure 13 for stainless). A two-conductor shielded cable between 28 and 20 AWG is recommended. The input requires a contact closure from a push-button switch, a ‘dry’ relay contact, a photo-eye, and a proximity sensor or other such device. A closure initiates the operation specified at P800.
The open circuit voltage across the remote key pins is +5 VDC. A closed switch will conduct about 0.25 mA. Therefore, a low-voltage switch with gold-plated contacts is recommended. A Mercury-wetted switch will also work
Do not apply an external voltage to remote key terminals! Only a contact closure is required to activate the remote key input.

Swivel Bracket
The Model 350/355 has an optional stainless steel swivel bracket for secure mounting to desks, tabletops or walls. See the Mounting section beginning on page 8 for instructions on mounting the Model 350/355 using the swivel bracket.
Figure 17: Swivel Bracket Installation (Die Cast Model)
To install the swivel bracket:
1. Unpack the Swivel Bracket option.
Be sure that all parts shown in Figure 17 are accounted for.
2. Remove the two plastic Heyco plugs.
The plugs are located in the threaded bracket mounting holes on either side of the indicator. Be careful not
to scratch the finish of the indicator when removing these plugs.
3. Place the two spacers against the bracket and then insert the thumb screws.
The spacer and bracket holes should align with the bracket mounting holes on either side of the enclosure.
Panel Mount Kit
The Panel Mount Kit provides an easy way to mount the indicator into new or existing cabinetry. See Figure 18 for detailed instructions on panel mounting the Model 350/355. See also NTEP Panel Mount Requirements on page 101 for additional panel mounting NTEP requirements.

To install the Model 350 Panel Mount Kit:
1. Unpack the Panel Mount Kit.
Be sure that all parts shown in Figure 18 are accounted for.
2. Remove the two plastic Heyco plugs.
The plugs are located in the threaded bracket mounting holes on either side of the indicator. Be careful not
to scratch the finish of the indicator when removing these plugs.
3. Place the adhesive gasket around the panel cutout.
This step is optional. The gasket should be adhered onto the outside of the panel and centered around the
cutout.
4. Place the Model 350 through the panel cutout.
This step may require a second person to hold the indicator in place. The indicator should be centered
inside the cutout.
5. Using two small screws and star washers, attach the two panel mount brackets. The center holes of the
brackets should align with the threaded bracket mounting holes on either side of the indicator. The two brackets should angle away from the indicator.
6. Using four long screws and four lock-nuts, secure the indicator to the panel. Thread the lock-nuts onto the
screws so that they will not interfere with tightening the screws into the threaded bracket holes. Evenly tighten the four screws until they are snug. Do not over-tighten. Now thread the lock-nuts down until they are snug against the bracket.

Analog Card Connections
The 16-bit electrically-isolated analog output module provides a highly accurate analog signal, proportional to weight. This signal can be used for interfacing to PLCs, chart recorders, and other such devices.
To install the Analog Output Module (350 die cast model):
See Analog Output Setup on page 23 for analog output software configuration details.
The Model 350/355 contains components which could be damaged by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) if serviced improperly. Use proper ESD precautions (wear a wrist strap connected to ground, use grounded work stations, etc.) when opening the enclosure.
High voltages may exist within the enclosure! To prevent the risk of electrical shock, ALWAYS unplug the Model 350/355 when opening the enclosure. Installation and servicing of the Model 350/355 should be performed by authorized and qualified service personnel only.
Never connect or disconnect option board cables while the indicator is powered. Doing so may result in circuit board damage.
1. Open the indicator. Remove the four screws from the back of the unit. It may help to remove the swivel bracket, if installed.
2. Place the back of the indicator, open side down, on a firm surface. Using a hammer and screwdriver, remove the appropriate knock-out.
It helps to place the screwdriver tip on the knockout pad, rather than in the groove. The knock-outs do not require much force to remove. If only installing one option, the left knock-out (as viewed from the rear) should be removed. A small file may be used to remove any burrs.
3. Flip the back cover over and place the Analog Output Module, component side down, over the four mounting holes. Install four 10mm screws to a minimum of 8 in/lb of torque.
Be sure the cable is already attached before installing the card. Also, be sure the cable is attached to the left-most connector (as viewed from the component side of the option board). The second connector is for ‘daisy­chaining’ another option card. The screws used to mount the option card are self-tapping and will require added torque when first installed.
4. Attach the loose end of the cable to the serial I/O connector (J7) on the main board or the open connector of a previously installed option card.
J7 is a 10-pin polarized connector. Be sure the cable is not twisted when installed. If this is a second option card, route the cable to the open connector of the first option card.
5. Reinstall the back cover. Tighten the four screws to a minimum of 8 in/lb torque.
Be sure to avoid ‘pinching’ the cable between the housing halves. Affix all appropriate labels to the back of the indicator.
Figure 19: Option Board Installation (Die Cast Model 350)

To install the Analog Output Model (350 Stainless Model and 355):
1. Open the indicator.
Remove the eight screws from the back of the unit.
2. Locate the three studs and one thru-hole on the 350 main board that the option mounting bracket will be attached to. See Figure
20. Remove the nuts from the three studs on the main board.
It may help to position the option mounting bracket over the 350 main board to locate the three studs and one thru-hole.
3. Install the nylon stand-off supplied with the option bracket kit into the thru-hole on the option bracket. See Figure 20.
The thru-hole is located on the option bracket, towards the center of the board, on the irregular flanged section (a smaller hole than the others on the bracket) that would be positioned towards the power supply regulator (U11) with a flanged heat sink on it.
4. Install the three hex stand-offs onto the studs on the main board.
Tighten the stand-offs gently with a 6 mm hex nut driver.
5. If this is the first option card, attach the loose end of the cable to the serial I/O connector (J7) on the main board. Let the card gently hang over to the outside of the enclosure until mounting. J7 is a 10­pin polarized connector.
This step is not necessary if this is the second card installed.
Figure 20: Option Board Installation
(Stainless Model 350/355)
6. Position the nylon stand-off (attached to the bracket) into the hole on the main board while routing the threads of the other hex stand-offs thru the holes on the bracket, while pressing down over the nylon stand-off until it snaps into place.
Line-up the three other hex stand-offs into the bracket thru-holes first before securing the nylon stand-off into the main board thru-hole.
7. Secure the bracket into position with the hex nuts supplied with the kit. Do not over tighten.
8. Place one set (four pieces) of the nylon sleeve type stand-offs onto the four studs of the option bracket. Place the Analog Output Module, component side up, onto the nylon sleeve stand-offs. Install four hex nuts and secure gently.
Select the four studs closest to the (J7) connector of the main board to add the four sleeve stand-offs. Be sure the cable is already attached to (J7) on the main board before installing the card. Also be sure the cable is attached to the right-most connector (J3) (as viewed from the component side of the option board). The second connector (J1) is for ‘daisy-chaining’ another option card. The additional mounting hardware is supplied with the option bracket kit. This hardware should be saved for future use if not being used.
9. Route the analog cable through the available strain-relief.
Make sure to connect cable conductors to the proper terminals before closing the unit.
10. Reinstall the back cover. Tighten the eight screws securely to create a good seal.
Be sure to avoid ‘pinching’ the cable between the housing halves.
