Hydraulic Override with External Switch
External A/M switch
The external A/M switch can be configured to control the hydraulics
instead of increment/decrement of sensor offset. This can be active in
both manual mode and in automatic mode. This feature is especially
useful then using the system on machines without a joystick for
controlling the blade. Examples would be tractor pulled scrapers and
wheel loader attachments.
When using this feature, the signal from the external switch has higher
priority than the signal from the different sensor inputs. Therefore is the
operator able to instant taking control over the system then he e.g.
reaches the end working track or emptying the scraper.
The feature can be selected in Tech-mode->main->hydraulic->External
up/down.
Three settings are available.
The speed of the hydraulic is based on the Laser Gain for left and right
side.
