    On-screen messages provide the operator with visual warnings of conditions that occur during operation of the system. Extension Sensor The extension sensor provides an increasing voltage proportional to the extension of the boom. A cable attached to the boom head provides a low current electrical path for the ATB signal.

    Setting the Work Area Alarm This alarm, when set properly, enables the operator to define a safe operating zone by setting only two points.

  • Page 127: Product Description

    Product description 2 Product description The vSCALE D3 console is the operable interface of the programmable Load Moment and Area Protec- tion system, referred to below as the “LMAP”. The LMAP detects the readings from different sensors and recognizes crane overload statuses depending on further parameters. Visual and audible signals alert the user of the overload status.
  • Page 128: Use For The Intended Purpose

    Product description 2.2 Use for the intended purpose The vSCALE D3 is the interface of the Load Moment and Area Protection system (LMAP). The LMAP detects a crane overload status depending on various parameters. The crane driver is warned well before the onset of an overload status via visual and audible warning signals.
