Setting the Work Area Alarm
This alarm, when set properly, enables the operator to define a safe operating zone by setting only
two points. This results in an enhanced work area and defines the exclusion zone area. The exclusion
zone area can be visualized by connecting the two set points with a horizontal line and extending the
line upwards to create a vertical plane or wall. When the end of the boom passes through this plane,
the red warning lamp will illuminate and the display will show the message “EXCLUSION ZONE”.
