DETAILED OPERATION
DEADMAN OPERATION - DETAILS
When the system boots up, the display screen will show the stage as viewed from the operator's position. If
desired, the operator may change the display viewpoint using the tools described above.
To select a set (or sets) for deadman
operation, the operator touches the
set label on the touchscreen. As an
alternative, the operator can use the
touchpad on the console to move the
cursor and select sets for operation.
Each set label will change from white
to green to indicate that it has been
selected.
The position display will also appear in the upper right portion of the screen.
This display will show the position(s) of the selected set(s). If a single set is
selected, the position will be shown numerically and graphically, as shown.
If multiple sets are selected, the set positions
will only be displayed graphically. The
graphic position display represents the
position of each winch axis relative to its soft
upper and soft lower limits. Each blue arrow
on the left of the slider represents the current
position of a set, while each green indicator
on the right represents the target position for
a set. On the 3-D display, the selected set
labels will change from white to green.
If a selected set is variable speed, a velocity display will appear in the lower right of the screen. When it first
opens, this window shows the default velocity of the selected set, and the default acceleration and
deceleration values. The velocity of the selected set can be adjusted using the – and + buttons in the velocity
display window.
