SETUP
The configuration setup procedure allows the operator to input the crane configuration using
interactive displays.
The LMI cannot perform correctly unless it has been properly adjusted. The prerequisite for
this is making conscientious and correct entries during the setup procedure, in accordance
with the actual configuration of the crane. The accuracy of the LMI settings must be
ensured before beginning crane work in order to avoid damage to property and severe or
even fatal injuries to personnel.
The correct setting is of utmost importance for the proper functioning of the system and the
crane.
Therefore, only operators who are thoroughly familiar with the crane and the operation of
the system should execute this configuration procedure.
4.1
Interactive operation mode setup
It is necessary to setup the mode of operation of the LMI system every time the crane structure has
been changed or if the system has been turned off for more than 2 hours.
If the system was switched off, for example during short breaks (less than 2 hours), all adjustments
remain stored. When switching on again the system these adjustments can be acknowledged by
merely pressing the "Enter" key (provided that the crane configuration has not been modified!).
During the programming procedure the Load Moment Pre-warning Light (3) and the Load Moment
Limit Light (4) will light up and the aggravating crane movements will be interrupted.
The LMI programming procedure consists of the following steps
