CAN RANGER OPERATION
12
the actuators are connected
to the system. Each time the
operator tells the receiver
which actuator was added,
the receiver will assign that
actuator the appropriate
function.
Things to keep in mind while
concerning Actuator IDs:
• The receiver will not let
you add more than one
at a time.
•
The receiver cannot
know if you are assigning
the wrong ID to an
actuator. That is, if you
attach the BOOM
actuator and tell the
receiver it is the WINCH,
the receiver will treat
that actuator as the
WINCH and the crane
will not operate
correctly.
•
If you skip an actuator
during the assignment
process, the Receiver will
not know, and will not
assign that actuator.
•
After assigning IDs, you
need to re-calibrate the
actuators, or at least any
new or swapped
actuators.
•
Leave the actuators
plugged in after you add
each one. No need to
remove them after each
step. If you do remove an
actuator that has been
assigned and you still need
to assign other actuators.
Do not plug the taught
actuator back in until you
have completed the ID
Assign procedure and
exited.
•
If you leave the actuators
mechanically linked to the
valves during the ID step,
