Operator Manual Range Limiting feature limit The system is equipped with a preset range limiting feature, which will stop the crane rotation to avoid contact with the outriggers. The lowest angle is 10 degrees, which will stop the rotation in the contact direction, but allow the machine to swing back in the opposite direction unless the angle is increased to enable the rotation to continue in that direction.
Operator Manual Virtual wall feature (ISAAC) (Activate) The system is equipped with a virtual wall feature ,which allows the operator to set the angle, radius or height limits. This is performed by putting the boom in that position and then selecting the function and confirming. These features are audible and visual warning only.
