PRODUCT SAFETY INFORMATION • All personnel who may be expected to use this equipment must be thoroughly trained in its safe and proper use. • Before flowing water from this device, check that all personnel (fire service and civilian) are out of the stream path.
Refer to the Operating Instructions section for more on setting Keep-Out Zones. A left and right Keep-Out Zone are factory set at Elkhart Brass so that the monitor discharge elbow and stream shaper do not contact the horizontal motor and sensor geometry. If the monitor is recalibrated or if these Keep-Out Zones are removed, new Keep-Out Zones or Travel Limits must be set to prevent potential interferences between these parts.

CONTROL Joystick Controller – 7030X2 The Joystick Controller can be mounted inside the apparatus cab to control all monitor functions, including oscillation, stow and deploy. The monitor direction (both vertical and horizontal movement) is changed by moving the joystick in the desired direction of travel. The up-down and left-right motions can be operated simultaneously with pressure sensitive speed, moving the monitor faster or slower depending on how far the joystick is pushed and pulled.
MONITOR & VALVE ACCESSORIES Position Feedback Display – 7051X2 All EXM2 monitors come with Absolute Position Feedback sensors. These sensors provide constant feedback to the monitors’ processor even when the monitor is moved via manual override. This information is then transmitted to the Position Feedback Display.
Termination Points When using CAN lines for communication there must be 2 termination points within the system. The monitor should be considered one of these terminating points and located at one end of main CAN line. Termination points are explained further in the Configuration section (installation step 2). What is important at this time is that in order to maximize the efficiency of communication in your CAN network, you must terminate the component located at the opposite end of the main CAN line.

Stow Output: The EXM2 monitor provides one electrical output to which an OEM can connect to in order to enable/disable truck operations based on whether an EXM2 monitor is stowed or not stowed. This could be used, for example, for a truck that has an aerial or other movable object that may hit the monitor if moved when the monitor is not stowed.

Connecting an OEM supplied proximity sensor to the wire from position 4 will provide conditional extended travel functionality via a ground or open circuit (see Operating Instructions). Connecting the proximity sensor wire from position 4 to a ground will provide an always enabled extended travel.

Caution: There are no vertical or horizontal travel limits when in Setup Mode. MOVE THE MONITOR WITH CAUTION WHILE IN THIS MODE. If monitor is obstructed by an object or by itself, the motors may over current and need to be moved manually out of the interfering object’s way.
If an Elkhart Brass Unibody valve is being used in your system, calibrate it at this time by first placing the valve in a half open position using the manual override, and then pressing and holding the CLOSE and PRESET buttons on any controller until the valve calibration begins.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS A. Button / Joystick Operation • POWER – Turns Hand Held controller on and off. • OSC (OSCILLATE) – Used to set automatic motion of the monitor • STREAM – Moves the nozzle in order to flow a straight stream of water (See step I, Oscillation for directions) (Roll thumbwheel forward on the Joystick)

D. Re-calibrating Horizontal and Vertical Rotation Calibrating the EXM2 system’s horizontal and vertical rotation is a necessary step for EXM2 systems of all types. The calibration points serve as a starting point for all other motion limits and commands entered to the EXM2 system. If not properly calibrated, the system may not operate correctly.
Page 26
F. Extended Travel The BoaX2 2000 monitor’s maximum vertical travel is dependent on the state of an additional input to position 4 of the 8-pin monitor power connector. This input allows the attachment of an OEM provided proximity sensor to trigger an open or grounded state of operation. The discharge vertical rotation limits from the horizontal center line (discharge parallel to the ground) for the proximity sensor input state are shown in the table below.

I. Deploy Position The Deploy Position is a preset position that can be used to bring the monitor to a user programmed position. A deploy position must be within the allowed travel area defined by any travel limits or keep-out zones, therefore it is recommended that travel limits and keep- out zones are set before setting a deploy position.

L. Oscillation The oscillation function is used to move the monitor back and forth inside a boxed area or straight horizontal or vertical line specified by the user. • Move the monitor to one corner of the intended boxed area (For a straight horizontal or vertical line, move monitor to the first line endpoint).
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS Preventive Maintenance The complete monitor and control system should be inspected during each apparatus check. Careful inspection for damage to the monitor, valve or nozzle is especially important after use of the EXM2 monitor in emergency operations. • Operate all possible functions to ensure that each works normally •...
