Cranesmart LMI Version R9

Marine Installation

When the

Cranesmart™ system is used on a crane with a cab in a marine environment use the external marine antenna

included in the kit. Installation varies between cranes but use the following as a guideline.
For optimum performance, the antenna should be installed at a 45



angle as shown below.

Determine the best position for the antenna; check the signal quality by using the signal display screen (see 83) while
changing the angle, etc.
