Page 4: System Use - Figure 1
SYSTEM USE – FIGURE 1 The TS7000 unit is designed with ease of operation in mind. The crane configuration is selected and confirmed by the operator before the system goes into its operating/monitoring screen requiring no further input from the operator unless the crane configuration is changed. Before this is done the crane will remain in safe mode, i.e., the dump circuit (cut-off) will be operational (if the crane has a dump system fitted).
Page 5: System Startup- Figure 2 & 3
SYSTEM STARTUP– FIGURE 2 & 3 The TS7000 display (LMI) will automatically come on when the crane is powered up, the buzzer will sound once then the system will run a CRC (cyclic redundancy check) to make sure that all raw data is correct. Once the system has completed the CRC the buzzer will sound again, and a set of internal diagnostics (watchdogs) will be utilised to verify that all inputs and outputs are working correctly.
Page 6: Tilt Or Level Set-Up- Figure 4
TILT OR LEVEL SET‐UP– FIGURE 4 This step will be skipped in the following conditions:  No tilt board is fitted  Tilt board is fitted but no tilt values have been entered The following option is to determine whether the crane is level along the X & Y axis. Level the machine using the dark black lines running along the axis lines.
Page 7: Crane Configuration Selection
CRANE CONFIGURATION SELECTION The system will now run through a series of selections to establish the current crane configuration. These selections are setup by the crane manufacturer and correspond to the relevant load chart and may not be displayed or in the same order as laid out in the manual. Use the back button to start the complete selection from the beginning at any time.

OUTRIGGER BASE– FIGURE 6 Select the configuration of the carrier that is currently in use. Figure 6 Page 8 TS7000 TELECSOPIC CRANE OPERATORS MANUAL - VERSION VIII...
Page 9: Boom Configuration - Figure 7
BOOM CONFIGURATION – FIGURE 7 Each boom configuration can be selected by pushing on the configuration that is required. Some manufacturers have telescoping monitoring conditions that may require the boom to be fully retracted before changing configuration, in this case a Retract Boom message will be displayed when trying to change the program with the boom extended.
Page 10: Fifth Outrigger - Figure 8
FIFTH OUTRIGGER – FIGURE 8 Truck mount cranes may be fitted with additional outriggers (front jack / rear jack or both) which can be extended (down) or retracted (up). This influences the rated capacities when working over the front or rear of the crane either by decreasing the capacities or giving a slew error when the 5th outrigger is retracted (Figure 3).
Page 11: Winch - Figure 9
WINCH – FIGURE 9 This step will be skipped in the following conditions:  The system has been programmed with only one winch.  The reeving has been fixed in rigging mode. The following option is to determine the winch being used for lifting. Simply select the option required.
Page 12: Reeving - Figure 10
REEVING – FIGURE 10 This step will be skipped in the following conditions:  The system has been programmed with fixed reeving.  The reeving has been fixed in rigging mode.  A fixed hook has been selected (cannot be reeved). After winch selection, how many reeves (falls) the hook is reeved to (total parts of line between hook block and sheave wheels) must be selected.
Page 13: Deductions - Figure 11
DEDUCTIONS – FIGURE 11 This step will be skipped in the following conditions:  No deductions for the relevant program are available. On cranes where the main boom can be used with the fly jib erected or the main hook block is on while the fly jib is being used, the crane manufacturer may give deductions that must be taken off the rated load when using that configuration.
Page 14: Program Confirmation - Figure 12
PROGRAM CONFIRMATION – FIGURE 12 This screen will only be displayed if the system has been programmed to allow this, if this is not programmed the system will go through all the selections again on power If none of the configuration settings have changed when powering up to the confirmation screen confirm by pressing the to continue to the working screen.
Page 15 OPERATING SCREENS – FIGURE 13, 14, 15 & 16 All the crane and system information can be viewed from here including all the parameters selected from power up. Should a different program need to be selected, press the crane graphic on the screen, the system will go back to the beginning as on system start up. Repeat the steps above.
Page 16 In operating mode, you can see all the current parameters of the crane. Outrigger Base: This is the current outrigger base – can be represented by the outrigger picture with outrigger length or a picture of a tyre with the crane travel speed.
Page 17 Main Angle: This displays the main boom angle. Fly Length: This displays the selected or measured fly length. Fly Angle: A fixed angle will be shown for a fixed fly and for a monitored fixed fly the angle will change as the fly angle changes. The fixed fly angle is measured relative to the main boom i.e.

Page 19: Error Messages - Figure 17 And Table #1
ERROR MESSAGES ‐ FIGURE 17 AND TABLE #1 The TS7000 will sound a buzzer and the green block will be replaced by an orange or red block at the top of the screen if any error occurs on the system. These errors are displayed at the bottom of the screen as either an error code only or the error description with the error code e.g., Anti-2-Block E002 where program selection is normally displayed.

Page 24: Working Operations - Figure 18 & 19
WORKING OPERATIONS – FIGURE 18 & 19 There are different touch areas on the operating screen which can be pressed to initiate a function. 1. Configuration selection is the crane graphic on the screen. If at any given time, the current configuration needs to be changed, press on the crane graphic and this will return to the first selection as if powering up for the first time.
Page 25 7. Rigging Mode – Press the length block when on the minimum length if the radius is more than the manufacturers max radius (low angle) the system will enter rigging mode and give the preprogramed rated capacity to allow the boom to be lowered onto its rest.
Page 26 11. Boom Telescope Percentages – To view the current boom percentages and lengths press the working screen where the percentages are displayed. The boom telescope percentage screen will be displayed (Figure 18) with current lengths and percentages. To exit back to the normal working screen, press anywhere on the screen.
Page 27: Indicating Status Lights - Dump Output (Lever Cut-Off) - Table # 2
INDICATING STATUS LIGHTS ‐ DUMP OUTPUT (LEVER CUT‐OFF) – TABLE # 2 There are Three BLOCKS (RED, YELLOW & GREEN) that are illuminated like a traffic robot situated on the top of the display screen. These BLOCKS are illuminated depending on the working state and error conditions. These BLOCKS are a basic way of checking the LMI. The following chart gives the BLOCK status, buzzer status as well as the status of the DUMP (Lever Cut-off) i.e., DUMP ON the crane will cut-out and DUMP OFF the crane is able to work.

Page 30: Touch Screen Calibration - Figures 20, 21 & 22
TOUCH SCREEN CALIBRATION – FIGURES 20, 21 & 22 If the touch screen is not responding correctly to touch the touch screen may need to be calibrated. Switch the TS7000 system power off then power up the TS7000 and wait for the splash screen (Figure 20) to appear. Figure 20 While the splash screen is on, press and hold the screen for five full seconds in the centre until the touch calibration is activated and loaded (Figure 21).
Page 31 Figure 21 Figure 22 If the calibration screen has been entered by accident and touch calibration is not necessary, press the button without pushing anywhere else on the screen. This process exits the touch screen calibration and continues with the standard start up procedure. If touch calibration is required, follow the below procedures: Press and hold finger where the two lines meet inside the small box (Figure 22) top-left hand corner).
