Loadsense Hydraulic Truck Scale Configuration - Wifi Version Legacy Android App

Introduction

This tutorial provides a comprehensive guide for configuring the Loadsense Hydraulic Truck Scale using the Wifi version of the legacy Android app. The Loadsense system utilizes hydraulic pressure transducers to accurately weigh trucks and trailers based on changes in hydraulic pressure. Proper configuration ensures optimal accuracy, making this guide essential for users looking to effectively use this weighing system.

Step 1: Install the Legacy Android App

• Download the Loadsense legacy Android app from the Google Play Store.
• Ensure your device runs a compatible version of Android.
• Open the app and proceed to the main menu for setup.

Step 2: Connect to the Loadsense Hydraulic Pressure Transducer

• Navigate to the settings menu within the app.
• Activate the Wifi connection on your device.
• Ensure the transducer is powered on and within range.
• Select the Loadsense device from the list of available networks.
• Confirm the connection by checking for a successful link indicator in the app.

Step 3: Calibrate the Hydraulic Pressure Transducer

• Access the calibration section in the app.
• Follow these steps to calibrate:
  • Place the truck or trailer on a level surface.
  • Ensure the load is centered in the bin for accurate readings.
  • Lift the load using the hydraulic system and note the pressure reading.
  • Input the known weight of the load into the app.
  • The app will calculate and store the pressure-to-weight ratio.

Step 4: Verify Calibration Accuracy

• After calibration, perform a test by lifting a known weight.
• Compare the app's weight reading with the actual weight.
• If discrepancies occur, repeat the calibration process until accuracy is achieved.

Step 5: Regular Maintenance and Checks

• Regularly inspect the hydraulic pressure transducer for any signs of wear or damage.
• Check the app's connectivity frequently to ensure consistent performance.
• Periodically recalibrate the system, especially after significant changes to the truck or trailer setup.

Conclusion

Configuring the Loadsense Hydraulic Truck Scale is essential for accurate weight measurement. By following the outlined steps—installing the app, connecting to the transducer, calibrating accurately, verifying results, and maintaining the system—you can enhance the efficiency of your weighing process. Consider setting a routine for checks and recalibrations to ensure ongoing accuracy. For further assistance, refer to the app's help section or contact Loadsense support.
