A USB to CAN Converter Interface is used to allow a PC to communicate with the Series 1-L during initial set-up and for later monitoring purposes. IMPORTANT NOTE: ENSURE USB DRIVERS ARE INSTALLED FOR THE USB TO CAN CONVERTER. SEE GKD USB DRIVER INSTALLATION NOTICE! www.gkdtechnologies.com... -
Page 6: Installation
3 INSTALLATION Series 1-L Display The back of the display is fitted with a ball-joint mount. The joint base should be secured with 2 x M5 bolts on fixing holes at 48.5mm spacing, and can be mounted on a horizontal, angled, or vertical surface as appropriate. -
Page 7: Pressure Transducer
Pressure Sensor Pressure sensors use a G1/4 hydraulic interface to the machine hydraulics. The ram full side pressure transducer, and the optional reverse side (rod side) pressure transducer, must measure the pressure in the lift ram at all times. Therefore, the measuring point must be on the ram side of any hose burst check valves that may be fitted. -
