Software Description

PaveSmart 3D is a machine control application for paving and milling machines. The system
software controls the steer-, elevation- and slope control loop of the machine.
The 3D design model is loaded onto the Machine Computer. The software compares the
actual position of the machine with the design. The actual position is calculated with
attached robot or GPS tracking data and the slope sensor(s) mounted on the machine.
The calculated deviations are then according to the control parameters transformed into
signals for the hydraulics, which are sent by CAN bus or serial port to the machine controller.
Most supported machine controllers have a dedicated "3D Mode", therefore the sensitivities
on the machine controller have to be deactivated or set to zero unless advised otherwise by
a Leica Geosystems or machine manufacturer authorised support engineer.
