1. GENERAL

INFORMATION

The purpose of the

iFLEX5

load moment limitation and control system with

iSCOUT expert compact

console

(hereafter referred to as LMI) is to provide the crane operator with important information

necessary for the operation of the crane within the areas of operation specified by the manufacturer.
The LMI uses a variety of different sensors to monitor different crane functions and communicates the
crane performance data to the crane operator on a continuous basis. This data changes constantly in
connection with the crane movements.

If the crane nears its safe load limit, the system will warn the crane operator by means of both acous-
tic and optical signals. In addition, as soon as the crane reaches an unauthorized operating status, all
crane movements will be switched off that would increase the load moment on the crane.

The PAT

iFLEX5

system uses a graphics operator interface, the functionality of which is determined

by the crane manufacturer. The selection of the programmed functions is considerably simplified by
the use of symbols.

The load moment limitation and control system based on the PAT

iFLEX5

is made up of main com-

ponents that are connected via a CAN bus.
