Hi im trying to use a load cell such as this one (100 Kg Type S Load Cell) to measure tension force at the handle of a rowing machine. To do this I have a PCB board already with an ESP32 microcontroller, an IMU and an HX711 amplifier. I wanted to know if this load cell is compatible with the HX711 amplifier as the configurations ive seen with other load cell have 4 leads connected to it and this particular load cell has 5.

HI @aramos2001 and welcome to the forum.
It should be compatible. As you can see on this photo, it has five wires but two of them are ground connected together:
I hope this helps.
