38 Cranesmart LMI Version R9
Boom Direction Transducer
– BDT
The Boom Directional Transducer allows the user to set up lift areas for the crane and can be used to automatically set
up load charts based on those lift areas
Mounting the BDT Bracket
1. Using the supplied bracket, mount the BDT to the turret.
2. The BDTs location should be close to the cab or to the
Cranesmart™ junction box and will be attached using a six-foot communication wire.
3. For proper tank tag reading the distance from the BDT and the tank tag must be ½ inch or less as shown in the diagram. Adjust the bracket
to move the BDT in or out as required.
Tank Tags
The Tank Tags are the numbered small round disks that are used to mark the lift areas on the turret. Please refer to
your custom manual section for exact placement of the tank tags.
1. Using the centre of the BDT bracket as a guide, swing the turret around to mark the points of transition on the fixed turret.
2.
For each “point of transition” mark on the turret, add two more marks one 3” to the left and one 3” to the right. These will be the final tank tag
position marks and
they will be 6” apart.
