USER’S GUIDE

3. Brief Description
The JBox-4800 is an AC or DC powered Summing Transmitter for up to four load cells with output

optionsof0to20mA,and0to 10 Vor4to20 mA, and2to10V.Allinput/outputoptionsare
includedononeboardsothereisnoneedtospecifyinput/outputparameterswiththeJBox-4800.

The JBox-4800 has a built in excitation supply capable of delivering up to 120 mA from 5 to 10 V,

morethanenoughcurrenttodrivefour350ohmloadcells.

The JBox-4800 offers three way isolation, input to output and power, eliminating unwanted ground

loopproblems.Overallaccuracyoverthenormalroomtemperaturerangeisexcellentat<±0.1%
offullscale.Thehighgain,verylowdriftandverylowtemperaturecoefcientofthe4800amplier
allowsfullscaleliveloadsignalsaslowas5mVtobeampliedto20mAor10V.

Designed with large and very stable tare offset requirements, the JBox-4800 can tare off up to 80%

oftheoutputofa3mV/Vloadcell(at10Vexcitation).

If high/low setpoint alarms/controls are desired, the JBox-4800 board is laid out to accept Opto-22 output

relays.Potentiometersareaccessibletoadjustthehighandlowtrippoints.

4. Operation
The JBox-4800 accepts DC mV signals from up to four load cells which are summed together, then

amplied,isolatedandltered.TheJBox-4800featuresa verystableon-boardexcitation supply
andprecisionamplier.Theyaredesignedforverylowdrift andasmalltemperaturecoefcient,
criticalforhighaccuracy.Thefullscaleoutputiseithera20mAor10Vsignalforindustrialcontrol.

2. Mounting

Mount the NEMA 4 Box using four screws in a location where water will not drip or run directly

ontoit.

Connecttheboxtothescaleframeworkgroundusingthe“GroundingKit” and alowresistance
groundstrap(e.g.#10orlargerwire).Aterminal“GND”on“Power Input” connector canalsobe
usedforgroundconnection.

3. Electrical Connection

Note: All the terminals are marked clearly on the printed circuit board. Be sure all terminal strip
connections are tight and the cable conductors are not cut or damaged. Use strain relief connectors,
tighten securely. Remove any unused strain reliefs and replace with provided hole plugs.

USER’S GUIDE

A. Connect the power to JBox-4800

If you use AC power line, connect the two AC power leads to “AC” pin and ground lead to “GND”

pin.Setthe“ACSwitch”toyourpowerlinevoltage(115Vor230V)beforeyoupluginthepower
cord.

If you use DC power, connect the DC power supply plus lead to “DC+” pin and negative lead

to“DC-”pin.

B. Pre-set the excitation voltage

Connect“RSE.+”(Remotesensing)to“EXC+”(Excitation),on“RemoteSense”connector
“TR5”,andconnect“RSE.-”to“EXC.-”.

TurnonthepowertoJBox-4800.Measurethevoltageattheremotesensingpins.Adjustthe
excitationsupplyvoltagewiththe“EXC.V”potentiometer“R131”.

Thisstepisnecessarytoavoidoverdrivingtheloadcells.

Note that all four load cell connectors “TR1-4” use the same excitation supply in parallel, so

theexcitationsupplyvoltageisalwaysadjustedat“EXC.V”potentiometer“R131”regardless
ofthenumberofcells.

*CAUTION: Turn off the power!

USER’S GUIDE

D. Remote Excitation

ExcitationSupply isa highperformance, remotesensing supplyfor longlead applications.

Remote sensing mode is recommended for single load cell applications and also for up to four

loadcellapplicationswherelongleadsarepresent.

Thetotalvoltagedropofexcitationleadsshouldbelessthan1V.Anapplicationexample:if
excitationleadsarecopperwireAWGno. 16,1000feet resistanceis4.016 ohm,roundtrip
resistanceis8.032ohm,thenthevoltagedropat120mAexcitationcurrentislessthan1V.

Ifremotesensingisdesired,disconnect“RSE.+”from“EXC.+”,on“RemoteSense”connector
“TR5”,anddisconnect“RSE.-”from“EXC.-”

Usuallythesetwopointsareclosetotheloadcell.SeeFig.2forsingleloadcellandFig.3for

Ifasingleloadcellisused,connectitto“LoadCell-1”connector.(Otherconnectors“LoadCell­2to4”andswitch“LC2to4”canalsobeused.)

AllwiresusedinconnectinguptheJBox-4800shouldbeofthesamematerial.Ifanyintervening
connectionshavetobemade,suchasaterminalblock.Theterminalblockconnectingpoints
shouldhavegoodthermalcontactsotheywillalwaysbeatthesametemperaturetominimize
thermal-electriceffects.

F. “SW1” has eight dip switches for four load cells.

Turnontwoswitches“LC1”on“SW1”.Thisconnectsthecelloutputsignalstotheamplier

G. We strongly recommend you use the JBox4800 excitation supply to
ensure high accuracy.IncasetheamplierisusedwithouttheJBox-4800  

excitation supply, the external power supply low side must be connected to the

   “EXC.-”terminalon“RemoteSense”connector.

B. Installation

PlugtheOpto-22outputmodulesinto“RELAY1and“RELAY2”ontheprintedcircuitboard.
Tightenthescrewontopofthemodulelightly.

C. Adjusting Set Point Values

IfyouneedtheRelayoutputs,connectthe“Hi”leadofadigitalvoltmetertothe“TP1”.Connect
the“Lo”leadofthedigitalvoltmetertothe“O-GND”on“OUTPUT”connector“TR6”.Testthe
voltageat“TP1”andadjustthe“COMP.V1”potentiometer“R66”tosettheComparatorvoltage
forthe low setpoint. Ifthe outputvoltageat “OUTPUT”connector “TR6”islower thanthe

Comparator voltage at “TP1”, this means the output is lower than the low set point, and the

outputofRelay1willbe“ON”.Thetwo“RL1”on“RELAYOUTPUT”connector“TR7”arethe
Opto-22Outputcontacts.

USER’S GUIDE

Use the digital voltmeter to set the voltage at “TP2”with “COMP.V2” potentiometer “R75”
forhighsetpoint.Iftheoutputvoltageat“OUTPUT”onconnector“TR6”ishigherthanthe

Comparator voltage at “TP2”, this means the output is higher than high set pint, and the output

ofRelay2willbe“ON”.Thetwo“RL2”on“RELAYOUTPUT”connector“TR7”aretheOpto-22
Outputcontacts.

Inordertopreventrelaychatter,typicallythereare0.07Vhysteresisvoltage.Theremaybea

very small difference between the output voltage and the voltage at “TP1” or “TP2” for turn on

oroff.Theoutputvoltageforturnonoroffcanbesetpreciselybyadjustingthe“COMP.V1”
potentiometer“R66”forthelowsetpointor‘COMP.V2”potentiometer“R75”forhighsetpoint.
