Sensor Slew & Height (Multi)
Quick Start Guide
Sensor Slew & Height monitors the slew position of the machine by
means of counting of the slew teeth and also monitors the position
of the front end equipment (Boom and Dipper) to allow the safe use
of the machine while under obstacles.
This quick start guide takes you through setting both Slew and
Height limits as well as the operational mode of the system.
It also covers the Safety Check procedure for checking the slew
motion cut valves.
When the system powers up, and displays the GKD logo, press the
OK button to enter the operational mode.
