1 Introduction
The WILDCAT bench and portable scale is designed to meet the real world requirements
of manufacturing, agricultural, packaging, and general weighing applications, and is
ready to use right out of the box. This manual provides important information for
installing and servicing the scale. For information on operating the scale, refer to the
Operator’s Card provided with the unit.
The WILDCAT scale is intended for use in general purpose industrial and commercial
environments. For the best performance, it should not be used in environments requiring
washdown, immersion in liquids, or exposure to corrosive chemicals.
Specifications
The WILDCAT scale is available in three base sizes. Specifications for the models below
are listed on the next page.

Load Cell Wiring
Figure 2-3 shows the load cell terminal strip wiring for the WILDCAT scale.
Serial Port Connections
The WILDCAT scale provides a bi-directional RS-232 port to be used to send data to or
receive commands from a computer, printer, or other serial device. The following chart
(Table 2-1) describes the pin configuration of the 9-pin D-Sub female connector on the
side of the terminal (indicator) of the WILDCAT scale. The maximum recommended
cable length for RS-232 is 50 feet (15 meters).
NOTE: Bi-directional capability
was added in version 2.0
software. Previous versions did
not provide ASCII input
commands.
Table 2-2 shows the ASCII commands that may be used to communicate with the
WILDCAT scale via the serial port. A more complete explanation is given in Appendix 3.
