Figure 4.188: Operators Console
Switches (A) and (B) on the operators console are used to
adjust the position (height). Releasing the switch stops the
movement.
NOTE:
Each momentary press of the switch changes the value by one.
Pressing and holding changes the value by one increment per
second.
NOTE:
The last position set with the console switches becomes the
target height. When an adjustment is made, the display shows
the target value. The system immediately adjusts to attain the
target position. After the last adjustment, the display shows
target value for 5 seconds then reverts to the actual position.
