6.6 Pressure Sensing
The System measures the pressure of the boom lift cylinder for both rod and piston side. Both sensors
communicate on the CAN Bus.
The signal runs from the pressure transducer as digital information on the CAN Bus to the central unit.
Note that the load displayed on the LMI is not a direct measurement when using pressure transducers;
rather, it is a calculated value. Ensure that the hydraulic system is functioning as intended and that
sensor values, mainly length and angle, are functioning correctly prior to troubleshooting the pressure
transducers.
