4. The control system
4.1. Control System Progress 2.0
Progress control system is an electronic device that allows you to work safely with the crane.
The control system:
• Monitors the crane operation and prevents unsafe
actions.
• Adjust the speed in certain working conditions.
• Monitors truck stability according to the position of the
stabiliser system.
• Makes operation easier.
• Makes troubleshooting easier.

NOTE
The control system provides a large number of functions. Certain features are
standard, others are options.
4.2. How the control system works
On the crane, there are various sensors and indicators that send signals about the crane load,
position, and movements to a central microprocessor. The microprocessor then decides how the
crane can be operated and stops prohibited movements, and adjust the speed according to the
following:
• Angular position of the crane boom system
• Position of the stabiliser extension and ground support
• Value of the load applied to the hook
• Number of simultaneous movements requested
• Speed of the functions set with the controller.
Fault monitoring
If there is a fault in the control system, it will give an immediate warning.
Depending on the fault, some crane movements could be blocked until the fault is corrected. When
the fault is important, the use of the crane is blocked completely.
