Slack rope minimum limit. The slack rope sensor compares the sum load to an adjust-
able slack rope minimum limit. When the sum load goes below the slack rope limit a slack
rope alarm is generated. The slack rope limit is usually adjusted to less than the weight of
all rigging below the load sensors. The default slack rope minimum limit for is 1000 (pounds
or kilograms depending on load display units).

List and Trim Angle Sensor
The GS010-03 is a two axis angle sensor designed to detect both list and trim angle. Minimum and
maximum limits for list and trim angle are adjustable in the display. The display will generate an
alarm if the limits are exceeded and can be programmed to generate lockout. Furthermore list and
trim angle can be used to control rated capacity chart selection where required (example: barge
cranes).
