Check the angle sensor as follows:
•
Enter calibration mode, if not already activated, and select “View Uncalibrated Angle” function
code.
•
Safely luff the boom down to its lowest operating angle.
•
Ensure the reading is between 50 and 4050. If the reading is outside these values adjust the
inclinometer inside the angle senor as follows (refer to Figure 15);
Figure 15 - Angle Sensor Internal View
•
Remove the grub screw on the top cover of the angle sensor. Remove the top cover by
twisting top cover of the angle sensor counter-clockwise. Loosen the inclinometer securing
nuts and rotate the inclinometer until “View Uncalibrated Angle” function code reading is
between 50 and 4050.
•
When the low angle raw counts are within the operating range safely luff the boom up to the
highest operating angle. Ensure the reading is between 50 and 4050. If the reading is outside
these values adjust the inclinometer inside the angle sensor as above.
•
Tighten the inclinometer securing nuts. Refit the top cover by rotating clockwise by hand. Do
not overtighten the cover and align the grub-screw hole. Insert the grub-screw into the hole
and tighten.
•
Tip
: raw counts should be approximately 2000 when boom is at 45 deg.
If the sensors check out then you can continue with the calibration procedure. If any problems are
found refer to Section 8. “Troubleshooting or seek help from your nearest LSI-Robway representative.
7.4.5.
Calibrating Boom Angle
Step 1)
Calibrating Low Boom Angle
a)
Safely luff the boom down to a low angle, e.g. 30°.
b)
Enter calibration mode, if not already activated, and select “Calibrate Low Angle” function
code.
c)
Accurately measure the actual boom angle using an angle finder.
d)
Use the UP/DOWN keys to ramp the display to the required value then press ENTER to
accept this value. Proceed to next Section “Calibrating High Boom Angle”.
Step 2)
Calibrating High Boom Angle
a)
Safely luff the boom up to a high angle, e.g. 65°.
b)
Enter calibration mode, if not already activated, and select “Calibrate High Angle” function
code.
c)
Accurately measure the actual boom angle using an angle finder.
d)
Use the UP/DOWN keys to ramp the display to the required value then press ENTER to
accept this value.
Step 3)
Verify that the boom angle Calibration
a)
Use the “View Boom Angle” function code.
b)
Luff the boom and stop on different boom angle points.
c)
Check boom angle with the angle finder and verify accuracy against the displayed angle.
d)
Re-calibrate if necessary.
