4.5. Calibrating Antenna tilt mechanism
A mounted reversible plough is equipped with
an antenna tilt mechanism. In the tab page
Antenna Tilt (Figure 35) the angle sensor, tilt
speed and steering speeds for the tilt
mechanism need to be calibrated.
When the plough is not equipped with a
tilt mechanism check the Disable Tilt
Detection box.
1. By default check the Flip Orientation
box. This setting determines which
sensor voltage corresponds with which
plough position. By looking at the sensor
voltage the system checks if the counter
weight of the antenna pole is positioned
downwards before steering the tilt
cylinder. If the tilt cylinder isn't steered
and the counter weight is facing
downwards uncheck the Flip orientation
box.
2. Set the Tilt Centre Value by aligning the
antenna pole exactly with the plough
frame and press the Tilt Centre Value-
button. Keep in mind that the moment
the antenna pole aligns with the plough
frame during the tilting operation is just a
small fraction of time because of the
counter weight.
Setting the angle sensor voltage needs
to be done very precise to guarantee the
tilt mechanism functions correctly!
Tip: Ask a colleague for help so the
antenna pole can be manually held
exactly aligned with the plough frame.
