D. SYSTEM DESCRIPTIONS
The electronic kilometre indicator can be read on the SmartBoard (see Figure 4.3.1.a.).
The electronic kilometre indicator is used to:
•
verify in a simple manner how many kilometres the trailer has travelled,
•
plan the maintenance of the trailer by the number of kilometres travelled.
Odometer: kilometre recorded by SmartBoard = Total number of kilometres (independent of the power supply)
Mileage: number of kilometres recorded by EBS (with power supply)
Trip EBS: trip mileage EBS (with power supply – can be set on 0 (only with PC))
Trip:
trip mileage counter SmartBoard (with power supply – can be set on 0 with SmartBoard).
The SmartBoard gives an “indication” of the total axle load or the load on the axles separately (see figure 4.3.1.a.).
Calibration
Pressure sensor calibration
4.4. LOAD INDICATION THROUGH SMARTBOARD AND ANY POSSIBLY CALIBRATION
Electronic kilometre indicator through SmartBoard
It is strictly forbidden to exceed the maximum bags pressure stated on the brake plate
(see §3.6 3.6).
During calibration, the parking brake and service brake must be released.
Rolling vehicle
Position the vehicle on an even surface and secure it against rolling away with use brake
wedges. Only use approved devices to jack up and secure the vehicle.
Risk of injury due to brake action while working on the brake
Attach a clearly marked note on the steering wheel saying that work is being performed
on the vehicle and that the brake must not be touched.
The SmartBoard provides the option to calibrate the pressure sensor to improve the accuracy of the axle load indica-
tion of Trailer EBS E.
This will improve the accuracy of the axle load indication. The more accurate the vehicle weight is determined and the
pressure sensors are calibrated, the more exact the axle load is displayed. In case of a wrong calibration the axle load
indicates wrong values!
The actuation of brake pressures is unaffected by this calibration, these values apply to parameter settings provided
by vehicle manufacturer.
Calibration points
The larger the weight difference between individual calibration points, the more exact the axle load indication will be.
The calibration point “partially loaded” is an option and not necessarily used.
•
Empty
•
Partially loaded (optional)
•
The vehicle weight in the partially loaded condition should be the midpoint between vehicle weight in empty and
fully loaded condition.
•
Loaded
Preconditions
•
Trailer EBS E1 with software version from TE14013 upwards
•
SmartBoard with software from SB010207 upwards
Calibration on the semi-trailer
Determine the weight of semi-trailer is unladen, partially laden (optional) and laden weight using calibrated weighing
device.
Ensure that all axles of the semi-trailer are located on the weighing device.
•
Select the menu <extras> <settings> <sensor calibration>.
•
For vehicles with raised lifting axle(s) you will be requested to lower them.
•
Lower the lifting axle(s) by pressing button <arrow right>.
•
The calibration will continue when all lifting axle(s) are lowered.
•
Select the menu item <calibrate unladen.> and enter the weight of unladen semi-trailer.
•
Button <arrow right>: changes the digit position
•
Button <OK>: changing the value
•
Button <back>: confirmation of input
•
Confirm saving the entered calibration data by pressing the <OK> button.
•
A successful calibration is indicated by displayed icon with check.
•
Repeat the last two action steps for the partly loaded (optional) and the fully loaded semi-trailer.
•
To do this, select the corresponding menu items <calibrate partly laden.> and <calibrate full laden>.
5. WHEEL ACCESSORIES
5.1. TYRES AND RIMS
5.2. SPARE WHEEL AND SPARE WHEEL CARRIER
All wheels and tyres mounted on the trailer are identical. A number of options with regard to make, size, offset and profile
of wheel/tyre are available, but these should always comply with the technically permissible axle loads, the load-speed
index and the brake schedule.
The spare wheel is located as standard in the single spare wheel carrier on the passenger side of the vehicle. In order to lift
the spare wheel from its carrier, remove the safety bar which retains the spare wheel in position. An optional double spare
wheel carrier may be fitted.
In the interest of safety it is extremely important to respect the correct tyre pressures.
Driving on tyres with insufficient pressure causes an abnormal rise in temperature which damages components of the tyres.
This damage is irreversible and will in due course unavoidably lead to flat tyres. The consequences of insufficient tyre pres-
sures are not always immediately visible and may only become apparent long after the tyre pressures have been corrected.
The valve cap is essential for complete air-tightness and for protection of the inner valve.
Tyre pressures are stated on the sticker located on the side of the trailer at the height of the
first axle.
The maximum load is 140 kg for a single spare wheel carrier and 250 kg for a double spare
wheel carrier.
The spare wheel should be securely fastened to the spare wheel carrier at all times in order
to avoid damaging, coming loose or losing the spare wheel.
