spikes and results flawless operation. Turn the system ON by pressing the “Power” button (see
chapter 3.1). When the XD2 lightbar powers up, the LED on the bottom right corner blinks.
The system is turned OFF by pressing and holding the “Power” button for 3 seconds.

Sensors are equipped with internal heating. When the excavator is used in cold
temperatures, it takes time for the sensors to warm up and provide good accuracy.
The amount of time needed between turning ON the Xsite EASY and starting the
work is shown in Table 1. Allow the proper warm-up time in order to ensure
accurate measurement results.
