a)

Dashboard/Error messages

: the specific icon flashes yellow if a warning is detected or 

flashes red if an error occurs. By pressing on the specific button additional information and 
troubleshooting tips will be displayed.
1.) MPC1310 messages
2.) Communication messages
3.) Sensor messages
4.) Machine messages
5.) Software messages

b)

Corrections: 

indicates the Trimmer head “deviations”, and required corrections for the eleva-

tion of the Trimmer head and the position of the Trimmer head. For example, if the height devi-
ation shows -0.002 (in selected units), the machine has to raise (i.e. correct) the Trimmer head 
by 0.002 (in m or ft). In normal operation, with the machine's controller set to Automatic, the 
deviations should be around zero at all times.

c)

Design Map display

: shows the whole project and the current machine position. Click on the 

map to select the desired ReferenceLine and SlopeLine for controlling the machine.

d)

Information

: provides information about the work progress.

Chainage

 shows current Stationing or Chainage (in selected units).

Speed

 indicates current speed of the machine (in m/min or ft/min).

Design Slope

 shows the Design Slope at the current position.

Pri 1

 shows the active Robot (R) or GPS sensor (G) on port 1 with status indication 

(green/red) and distance to machine.

SP1

 shows the spare Robot for leapfrog.

Slope

 shows the attached slope sensor with status indication (green/red).

e)

 

Press and hold for at least 1 second to start active Control.

f)

 opens the Sensor dialog to manage Robot and GPS sensors.
