Page 4: Introduction
INTRODUCTION This manual contains the installation instructions for the Series 1-S slew limiting system. Installation should only be carried out by competent and trained staff as this product is a safety product. During installation it is assumed that industry standards will be observed and all cabling will be protected against damage either from the movement of the machine or from collisions that may occur during normal operations ( trees &... -
Page 5: Slew Module Mounting
2 SLEW MODULE MOUNTING The slew module should be mounted in a position where it is protected from direct rainfall and jet washing etc, and where it is unlikely to be damaged mechanically. It is useful if the LEDs within the module can be seen to assist in setup and fault finding. The slew module may be mounted in any orientation. -
Page 6: Proximity Switches (Tooth Counting)
3 PROXIMITY SWITCHES (TOOTH COUNTING) Two proximity switches must be installed in such a way as to count the movement of the upper structure against the slew ring teeth. The teeth are typically accessed through an inspection hatch, and it is usually possible to mount the proximity switches into the inspection plate so that they are able to detect the slew ring teeth as they pass beneath. -
Page 7: Tooth Count Proximity Switch Spacing
Tooth Count Proximity Switch Spacing The tooth counting proximity switch spacing is important, as by the sequence of switches detecting teeth, the Series 1-S is able to determine the direction of slew. The proximity switches must be mounted 90 degrees out of phase, or Tooth spacing - Prox switch 1 full tooth... -

Page 10: Slew Module Connections
6 SLEW MODULE CONNECTIONS +V and 0V Supply to slew module The slew module internal electronics are powered through the 12mm CAN bus connector from the display. The solenoid valves driven from the slew module derive their power from the +V inputs into the slew module deutsch connectors (black connector, pins 4 and 9). If the total current draw of the two solenoid valves is less than 5A it is not necessary to connect both pins 4 and 9 to +V, only one (either one of the two) needs to be connected. -
Page 11: Testing The Installation
7 TESTING THE INSTALLATION Once installation has been completed, turn the ignition on and check that the green “ON” LED lights to signify power. The red “FAULT” LED will blink slowly (1 sec ON, 1 sec OFF) with the key switch in the “No Limits” position, as the module has not yet learned the number of teeth on the slew ring. -
Page 12: Checking The Tooth Count Sequence
8 CHECKING THE TOOTH COUNT SEQUENCE Identify the LEDs associated with input 1 and input 2. The LEDs can be identified from the label on the module. The input 1 and 2 LEDs will light up when a slew tooth is detected by the two tooth counting proximity switches. -
Page 13: Calibration
9 CALIBRATION The following procedure highlights the process required to teach the Slew Module the number of teeth it will be counting on a slew ring or similar counting setup. It is assumed at this point that there is no CAN Bus errors and the Series 1-S is indicating a state of No Slew Data. -
