7 ADDITIONAL POSSIBILITIES
7.1 Effective alloy wheels balancing - SmartALU technology
There are a lot of different types of alloy wheels so places of stick-on weights fastening
can be different. As a result even in case of using a fault-free and well-calibrated machine the
precise wheel balancing may need two or more cycles. It's especially difficult to balance wheels
with great imbalance. SmartALU technology helps to lessen the number of cycles: the first
wheel from the set will require two cycles, the other wheels will require only one cycle basically.
SmartALU technology is based upon the following principle: if imbalance is great the
machine will require the training weight. After imbalance measuring with the training weight the
machine calculates real position of the training weight (diameter and distance) and then
calculates precisely residual weight. The next wheels from the set will be balanced according to
the precise parameters and correct places for the weights and weight masses will be calculated
correctly.
To switch on SmartALU mode enter the menu by pressing
MENU
then use
UP
DOWN
to choose the item «Parameters» and press
EXECUTE
. Then use
UP
DOWN
, to choose the item «SmartALU» and press
CHANGE
, use keys
or
set "Yes", press
OK
. Then exit the menu by pressing
EXIT
. The mode indicator will
turn on (become contrast) on the information field
.
To switch the SmartALU mode off do the same steps and set «no».
Wheel balancing with SmartALU mode switched on is a little bit different.
If one of the schemes shown in Figure 7.1a is used for balancing procedure and wheel
imbalance is great enough the image of test balancing request can appear on the display,
Figure 7.1b.

Set the required weight in conventional way. Low the cover for imbalance measurement.
After imbalance measuring the machine will calculate precise diameter and distance for training
weight setting. After that go on with regular balancing procedure. It is necessary to fix the
residual weight in training weight plane with keeping the training weight setting distance as
precise as possible, as it is shown in Figure 7.2!
