Model Numbers
Two LectroCount Remote Display Models are available
for interface to Liquid Controls LectroCount Electronic
Registers. Ensure that the model number of the
LectroCount Remote Display is compatible with the
LectroCount Electronic Register prior to installation. If
the device does not match the model number, the system
will not work and may be damaged when power is applied. Figure 1. Remote Display Identification Label

An identification label appears on the top of the remote

display (Figure 1). This label designates the device for
which the remote display is designed. It will not work
with other devices. The label also contains the Serial
Number of the unit. This information will be useful when
contacting Liquid Controls for assistance.

LectroCount LCR-II - Select Switch Kit Accessory (PN 82593)

This kit is not required for operation of the LectroCount
Remote Display with the LectroCount LCR-II. It is an
optional accessory which allows the user to select the
various displays available from a remote location. The
switch kit accessory does not connect to the LectroCount
Remote Display, it is wired directly into the LectroCount
LCR-II.

The Select Switch Kit includes the following:

Push Button (& cord grip)
Cord Grip (2)
4-port Conduit Box
30 Foot, 2-wire, Shielded Cable

The 4-port Conduit Box can be configured as desired.

Each port is the same size (") so the plugs and cord grip
and switch may be reconfigured to suit the application.

When a location has been determined for the switch kit,

mount the conduit box. Route the 30 foot cable provided Figure 11. Select Switch Wiring Diagram
to the LectroCount LCR-II and connect the cord grip to an
available port on the back of the LCR-II. Route the free
end of the 30 foot cable through the cord grip on the back
of the LCR-II. Connect the two wires for the Select switch
to terminal J8 on the LCR-II PCB as shown in Figure 11.
