5.2 System overview and function
The Dynapac remote control offers all of the buttons
required to control the system and optical displays from
which the current status of the system can be read off at any
time.
Here, the sensor signals and keypad inputs are processed
and forwarded to the tractor's higher-level control system.
The Dynapac Screed Controller evaluates the following
sensors, which are installed in and on the screed, and
transmits the measured values to the tractor's higher-level
control system.
The sensors which are evaluated include:
Tamper frequency, vibration frequency, auxiliary compactor
frequency, left auger material sensor, right auger material
sensor, left screed width sensor, right screed width sensor.
It additionally undertakes and monitors all bi-directional
communication with the tractor's higher-level control system.
The digital slope sensor
SLOS-0150
(slope sensor) operates
with a highly-accurate, electromechanical measurement
system and is used to monitor the screed's inclination.
The digital rotary sensor
ROTS-0300
is a sensor for
measuring distance and scans the measured values from an
available reference by means of mechanical aids.
This may be both a tensed and measured cable or a surface
(e.g. an already paved road surface).
