System diagnostic
The first diagnostic step is to note the messages
shown at the top of the main screen. Then, access
menu 5F (Diagnostic, Current Alarms). This will list
the different alarm conditions. If a sensor is in
timeout or indicated as missing, its battery will likely
need to be changed. See the procedure to change
the battery and properly seal the transmitter box.
A problem with one sensor will often generate other
alarms. For example, not knowing the boom angle
may make the radius calculation to be longer than
the actual and could select a load chart with minimal
capacity.
Note the display ID number indicated on the right
side of the display for eventual assistance from LSI.
Sensor list verification:
If a sensor is indicated as missing, or if a sensor has
been replaced, the list of sensors programed in the
LMS should be verified, along with the ID number of
each sensor. See section 2.5 on how to access and
modify the sensor list.
The pipelayer should have a specific list of sensors.
For each one, verify that the ID number matches the
number engraved on the actual sensor. As indicated
in the table below, some transmitters could send two
signals and will then have teh same ID. It is the case
for the load and anti-two-block (A2B), and for the
trim & list angles.
how to restore default factory
settings:
It is possible to return the display to its factory
settings. This will restore the original sensor list,
geometric dimensions, system limits to their original
values, with the original list of sensors.
To restore the default factory settings:
1. Go to menu

.
2. Enter the user password ‘aza’ and press
enter
.
3. Select
restore default
. The system will restart
with the original settings.
After restoring to factory settings, the only
adjustement that could be required is the ID of a
sensor if one has been changed. Verify the sensor
list.
advanced
: in menu 4J, it is possible to save all
current settings in a memory bank for possible
restoration later. Like a backup, it could be useful to
save all the internal settings in a memory bank
before changing several parameters in the system.
If needed, the system could then be returned to its
earlier configuration by restoring a previously saved
memory bank.
