BOOM AND LUFFING JIB ANGLE
INDICATOR CALIBRATION
An angle sensor (Figure 4-1) is located inside the boom and
luffing jib tops. The sensors are calibrated on the Range
Capacity Limiter/ Range Capacity Indicator (RCL/RCI)
display and do not require adjustment.
BOOM STOP LIMIT SWITCH
When the boom is at a position other than the maximum
allowable angle, the limit switch in the boom stop switch unit
(1, Figure 4-2
) is closed, providing a continuous 24 V
DC
signal to the ID07 input on the IOLC30 control module.
If the boom reaches the maximum allowable angle for your
boom/jib configuration, the limit switch will open (voltage at
the ID07 input drops to 0 V
DC
), signaling the control system
to stop the boom hoist and apply the hoist brake.
