Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Safety
Always disconnect the vehicle battery while installing SkidWeigh system or any other electronic product.
Make sure that unit, pressure transducer and any other associated cables are securely mounted and do not impede any
of the vehicle’s controls. Use care when routing the components cables. Route the cables where they will be protected.
Use commonly accepted install practices for after market industrial vehicle electronic devices.
The installation of the SkidWeigh ED2-EP systems should only be performed by an acknowledged lift truck dealer
technician or end user electro and hydraulic technical installer.
Here are two acceptable methods of making a wire connections:
* Soldering your connections (recommended)
* Crimp connectors ( with the use of the proper crimping tool)
Regardless of the method you choose, ensure that the connection is mechanically sound and properly insulated. Use
high quality electrical tape and shrink tubing where necessary. This product is connected directly to the vehicle’s power
on or ignition switch. The system operating voltage is from 12 to 55 VDC.

3. Overview of components
The standard ED2-EP SkidWeigh Series check weighing system consist
of the following components:
* Digital LED indicator, with master power on switch, wiring harness,
mounting bracket and anti-vibration mount
* Hydraulic pressure transducer with 3 wires cable
* Installation & calibration manual and operator usage instruction
Operational principal
The ED2-EP SkidWeigh system operational principal is based on the hydraulic pressure transducer mounted in the
vehicle lifting hydraulic circuit. The load should be placed all the way in towards the load back guard. With the load
lowered to the ground the LED display will show Mode 8 which is a starting point to initiate a load weight procedure.
The increase in the hydraulic pressure will activate the specific “weighing cycle” measurement algorithm for activation of
the lift accurate technology process to automatically stop the lifted forks at predetermined height based on pressure
transducer signal calculation value of the lifted load.
Operational Cycle
Operator must activate lift control switch and hold it until the loaded forks are automatically stopped
at the measurement height based on the pressure transducer input signal. The increase in the hydraulic
pressure signal will initiate specific “weighing cycle” measurement algorithm for activation of the lift accurate
technology process that will automatically stop lifted forks at predetermined height.
As soon the loaded forks are stopped the system will take a series of measurements and within 3-4 seconds
the load weight will be shown on LED display.
With the load weight is shown on LED display the system lift motor travel
control will be disabled.
Pressure transducer installation
The pressure transducer, 1/4”-18 NPT male thread must be installed in the
lifting hydraulic line between the lift control valve and lift cylinder.

4. Install a T-piece in hydraulic line for the mounting of the pressure transducer.
Automatic lift motor travel de-activation methods
during the load weighing cycle
Two BLACK wires are connected to the internal relay, dry contacts located in the ED2-EP digital indica-
tor. This internal relay is controlled by the microprocessor and activate only during the load weighing
cycle. There is no power connected to these two BLACK wires.
Internal relay configuration is SPST, normally closed contacts NC, at 1A current contacts rating.
Method A.
(Newer electric pallet trucks with CANbus controllers)
Use two BLACK wires and “splice” them in series with the operator activated lift control switch wire
or signal wire from electronic controller to pump solenoid activating pump motor.
The predetermined motion of the lifting cylinder and the load weight measurement “weighing cycle” will
be initiated and controlled automatically by the software algorithm based on the input from the pressure
transducer signal. Once the load weight is shown on the LED display internal relay will be de-activated

5. and the lift motion control event will be automatically enable. (With vehicle stationary and during the lift-
ing cycle diagnostic display on some vehicles might show “ No power to lift motor” or audio signal might
be activated for short time period.)
Consult vehicle wiring diagram or contact the
OEM for the proper interface of two black
wires to control lift pump motor travel
Method B.
(Some electric pallet trucks with stand alone pump solenoid)
Use two Black wires and splice them in series with one of the lift solenoid coil wires activating the
lift motor. Disconnect one of the original solenoid coil wire ( From either positive or negative terminal of the
solenoid coil) and splice two BLACK wires in series to disconnected wire of the either solenoid terminal.
! !
The predetermined motion of the lifting cylinder and the load weight measurement “weighing cycle” will be
initiated and controlled automatically by the software algorithm based on the input from the pressure trans-
ducer signal. Once the load weight is shown on the LED display internal relay will be de-activated and the lift
motion control event will be automatically enable. (With vehicle stationary and during the lifting cycle diag-
nostic display on some vehicles might show “ No power to lift motor” or audio signal might be activated
for short time period)
Note: When unloaded vehicle is in motion the hydraulic “spikes from pressure transducer signal” might
be seen by the vehicle controller as start of the “weighing cycle”. Short interruption of the power to the
lift solenoid coil on “some controllers” is seen as a “fault” and power to the vehicle will be cut.
Solution:
- When moving unloaded vehicle turn ED2-EP indicator power switch
to OFF POSITION.

6. Pressure transducer installation
precautions
Before installation of the pressure transducer the hydraulic
lift circuit make sure to be pressure free.
Make sure that that installed pressure transducer will not
touch any moving parts or assembly of the vehicle while in
normal operation. Pressure transducer has 1/4”-18 NPT
male thread. Use thread seal to ensure tight fit.
Selecting the mounting location
for digital indicator
Use the mounting bracket with the anti vibration mount and
fasten digital indicator on the vehicle dashboard, load
backrest or any other convenient place on the electric pallet
truck dashboard body There are many examples of
mounting locations that will depend on the vehicle model.
However, additional mounting items such as a flat brackets
may be needed to help secure the unit.

7. Verification of the electrical connections done properly
- Turn master On /Off switch to on position. The LED display will show the software version.
- Lower forks to the ground. The LED display should show Mode 8.
- Activate lift control switch and hold it. Forks will be lifted and automatically stop at height
predetermined by the input signal from pressure transducer.
- The LED display will show some random load weight. System electrical connections are done right.
- Next step will be to calibrate the system with known load weight!
Electrical power short circuit protection
- All of the SkidWeigh systems are internally short circuit protected with resettable fuse. There is no need to
install external inline fuse in the orange wire connected to the vehicle power on / ignition switch.
- Automotive 60 V load dump protection
- Reversal power supply protection
Note: Any external devices connected to the SkidWeigh system, such as non standard onboard printer
might require external fuse.

If you want the system to show load weight in pounds, use the known load weight in
pounds and enter that value accordingly. The same would apply if you want the system to
show load weight in kilograms. Use the known load weight in kilograms and enter that
value into the system accordingly.
Two Buttons Weighing Scale Calibration Procedure
The ED2-EP SkidWeigh system is using two buttons to calibrate the weighing scale function. The
calibration procedure for the ED2-EP SkidWeigh series is fully automatic and is done by lifting
empty and loaded forks by holding the lift control valve until the forks are automatically stopped
and the session measurements are taken. For the best results use at least minimum calibration load test
weight of 50% to 80% of maximum lifting capacity of the electric pallet truck.
Use customer floor scale or find a known skid load weight within the operational facility.
Calibration starting point for weighing function
Lower the empty forks to the ground.
There should be no hydraulic pressure in lift hydraulic circuit.
!
- Turn vehicle power switch to on position . If the LED display does not show any number(s), turn on the main power
switch located on top of the housing.

Use paper clip
to activate calibration buttons
10. Calibration of loaded forks with known calibration load weight
Position your electric pallet truck into the skid load with your known calibration load weight.
- Lower the loaded forks to the ground.
(In our example we will use the known calibration load weight of 4000 pounds)
- Start entering a known load weight into digital indicator by pressing arrow up button (increments from 0 to 9) with
wrap around function. Start with least significant digit of your known load weight.
- Use the “M” button to increment to next digit on the LED display
- Repeat this procedure until the forth least significant digit display is shown. Use arrow up to input number 4.
Caution: In our example known calibration load weight of 4000 pounds has only four digits. Make sure that the 5th
digit has “0” value entered into the calibration system. Next step is to press “M” button to advance to Mode 6 which
is the last mode in order to calibrate the system.
With loaded forks on the ground and digital LED display showing Mode 6 activate and hold lift control valve until
loaded forks are automatically stopped. The LED display will go blank for the moment and within few seconds display
will show the calibrated known load weight. (In our example LED display will show 4000)

until forks with lifted load are stopped.
Once the load weight is shown on LED display lifting
control system goes back to normal operating mode
12. Lift Truck Operator Proper Weighing Procedure
The starting point to initiate a weighing cycle
- System power switch must be turned on
- Loaded forks must be lowered to ground
- LED display must show Mode 8
- Operator must activate lift control with and hold it until loaded forks are stopped automatically
- Within few seconds LED display will show the load weight
- Load weight will be shown on LED display until next time forks are lowered to the ground
Note: When unloaded vehicle is in motion the hydraulic “spikes from pressure transducer signal” might
be seen by the vehicle controller as start of the “weighing cycle”. Short interruption of the power to the
lift solenoid coil on “some controllers” will be seen as a “fault” and power to the vehicle will be cut.
Solution:
- When the system weighing function is not utilized or you are moving un-
loaded vehicle turn ED2-EP indicator power switch to OFF POSITION.
