Components Installation

Sensors
Attach directly with the magnets or use the support plates
You can either place the sensors directly on the equipment with the magnetic attachments, or attach the sensors
magnetically to the support plates, which can be welded or screwed on the individual elements. The advantage of the
support plates: you don't need to mark the sensors' locations and orientations before you remove the sensors at the
end of the day; the plates stay in position. If you don't want to use the support plates and you want to remove the
sensors at the end of the day, you should mark (with a pen or a screwdriver) the sensors' locations and orientations to
avoid having to calibrate again.
Note the "nose" on one side of the sensor, which will help you orientate it correctly the next day. If you attach it
incorrectly (turned 180°), it will cause an error in the calibration and performance of the system.
Caution: Check with your machine dealer if welding or screwing into the excavator's elements might lead to a loss of
the element's warranty.
Boom 1 Sensor
Attach the sensor to the main boom close to the chassis near the pivot point. There is less movement near the pivot
point and the readings will be steadier, with less fluctuation. Same for the 2
