18.4.7 Hydro Speed Setup
The Hydro Speed Setup takes the slowdown factor of the distance and time relative to the
speed to generate the slowdown distances and threshold for each landing. The up and down
adjustments depend upon the selected factor in which the greater the factor the greater the
distance. For example, if the factor is 1 second, the slowdown distance will be 2’ 1” where as if
the factor is 1.78 seconds, the slowdown distance will be 3’ 8”. Depending upon the high speed
and type of valve setup, the factor can be determined.
To have a proper slowdown for up or down direction, adjust the up and down time.
Note: Changes made on Up Adjustment and Down Adjustment will not take affect while
Adaptive Slowdown™ system (U.S. Patent Pending) is active, turn off Adaptive Slowdown™
system (U.S. Patent Pending) before proceeding.
