Using the MUS1300 Tri-Sonic Sensor
Using Tri-Sonics
The Tri-Sonic can also measure the horizontal distance to a stringline and therefore it can
be used to control the sideshift on a grader.
To do that, complete the following steps:
1. Place the machine so that the Tri-Sonic is above ground, the edge or stringline. The
sensor needs an edge or string to follow before it can control the sideshift.
2. Move the blade to the working position.
3. Move the Tri-Sonic to a good working height. This is approximately 60 cm above the
reference.
4. Select the Tri-Sonic on the same side as where it is placed on the machine.
5. Enter the Tri-Sonic menu. First press the
key, then press the
Adjust
function key.
