    120 Kg Compartment Semi-enclosed with seat belt 1.2 MOTION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The motion actuation system used in Cycraft is a very unique, high tech system that distinguishes Cycraft from other simulator products. The motion system has the following special features: Fully electric motion system: The actuators are fully Electrical (no hydraulics), making it superior in terms of maintainability and transportability.
  • Page 10 3 DOF Motion Systems The heave actuator produces up/down heave motion by rocking the rocker arm, which holds the passenger cabin. The two suspended actuators on the rocker arm assembly produce the relative pitch and roll motions Separate controllers inside the MSCU control each of the linear actuators. The controllers are in turn connected to the motion controller board, which generates the commands for each actuator via high-speed industrial Control Area Network (CAN) cable.

  • Page 12 Seat Belt Sensor: The seat belt buckle in Cycraft is equipped with a sensor that detects when the seat belt is fastened or not. Cycraft will not start the game unless the seat belt is fastened properly. Also, if the seat belt is unfastened during the game, the motion will stop until it is re-fastened.
  • Page 13 Also, it is dynamically much more stable by making it very difficult to tip the cabin over to it’s side. Thus, the Cycraft structural design is inherently much safer than conventional motion simulators.

    STEP 10 FENCE ASSEMBLY 5.4 SECURING IN PLACE (LEG ADJUSTER ADJUSTMENT) After Cycraft is placed in location, the level pads must be adjusted correctly to prevent Cycraft from moving about the floor due to its own motion. Cycraft has 3 stationary rubber pads and 4 adjustable level pads as shown.
  • Page 26 2) Lower the 4 adjustable Leg Levelers so that they touch the ground and evenly hold the weight of Cycraft. Do not extend them so much that the central rubber pad is raised from the floor.
  • Page 27 Turnbuckle 2) Turn-buckle works as a kind of ratchet mechanism. Lower the rear end of the rocker arm by ratcheting up the turnbuckle clockwise as seen from the rear until the turnbuckle almost go to its limit. During this process the cabin will be lifted up. As it lifts up it will simultaneously tip to wards the front and slide backwards 3) Disassemble the heave actuator holding bracket and free the heave actuator.
  • Page 28 enough so that bolts can be inserted. It is not necessary to have the flange mated exactly to the rocker arm at this stage. 5) Tighten the four bolts evenly one at a time. The heave actuator piston will extend as the bolts are tightened.
