iCON grade, Calibrating the System
List of warnings
If there are any remarks setting the calibration, a warning will be
displayed at the end of the routine. The following is a list of warnings:
•
Symmetry and Gains failed. Set manually.
This is a symptom of the hydraulics installation not being able to
reach a high enough hydraulic speed for optimal performance. Please
check proper hydraulic installation and equipment if blade response is
not adequate.
•
Reversed Hydraulics corrected.
The hydraulics were connected backwards and corrected via software.
Note that this setting will have no impact on performance, only that
the correct configuration is found in the software settings and not in
the cabling to the hydraulics.
•
Idle speeds have been set to Zero.
The auto calibration has detected that the blade lowers slightly when
attempting to raise the blade at very lowspeeds.
This is not as such a critical problem, and only means that ideal
performance will be achieved through idle speeds set to zero. No
further action is necessary.
•
One or more Gains set to 1.
This is typically caused by an incorrect “Max Power” setting. Verify
setting and if changed, redo calibration.
The following errors are errors that will abort the Automatic Calibration:
•
No cross slope sensor
,
No mast slope sensor
,
No cross/mast
slope sensor
.
The above errors occur if the listed sensor is not attached or is
unplugged during the calibration process.
•
No movement detected.
During setting the blade movement boundaries, no change in sensor
value were detected.
Check connection of sensors.
•
Slope sensor mounting reversed.
Cause: The cross/mast slope sensor is mounted upside down.
•
Hydraulics not responding.
The system is unable to move the hydraulics at all.
Verify installation.
•
Interference detected. Try again.
Redo calibration if this message is shown.
After 5 to 15 minutes, the auto-
calibration for the selected side is
complete.
Repeat for the other side.
If a rotated Cross Slope sensor
was used to calibrate left side on
a dozer, disconnect it or return
the sensor to its original and
proper position prior calibrating
the tilt/right side. See below for
any warnings or errors.
