G. INTERCHANGING FORCE CELL MODULES
The WAGNER FDV Digital Force Gage presents the user with the
unique ability to combine various capacity Force Cell Modules with
a single Force Display Module.
G.1 Description
The FDV consists of two modules which connect to form a complete
FDV Digital Force Gage.
The front half of the gage, the Force Display Module (FDM) contains
the display, control buttons, battery, and electronics. All control functions
are executed by the FDM, as well as user input by keypad entry and
output by LCD display and output connector.
The rear half of the gage, the Force Cell Module (FCM), contains a
load cell force sensor and a structure capable of withstanding force
loads up to 100 pounds. The Force Cell Module communicates the
applied forces to the Force Display Module.
The versatility of the FDV is made possible with the interchangeability of
the Force Cell Modules. After the initial purchase of a complete FDV
gage, additional Force Cell Modules may be added to the system. This
allows the user to interchange Force Cell Modules of 5, 10, 30, 50, and
100 pounds, by attaching them to the Force Display Module.
Interchangeability between Force Cell Modules is possible because all
modules are calibrated to deliver a closely controlled output. All that is
required of the user is to attach the required module and to enter the
capacity of the Force Cell Module into the Force Display Module via the
Set-Up Menu (See Section F).
G.2 Connecting a new FORCE CELL MODULE (FCM)
1. Remove the 4 module attachment screws from the FCM (rear half).
