Getting Started Paving Using Elevation Control
1. Setup the paver screed as you would to start paving manually.
2. Power up the Control Box and select Elevation Control by pressing the Slope/Elevation button until the green LED
above the elevation symbol lights up.
3. Position the Sonic Tracker over the grade reference.
4. Press Survey to set to On-grade.
5. Press and hold the Menu/Set button, then turn the Grade Adjustment Knob to set the display’s Elevation Setpoint
value to the desired paving thickness.
6. Switch to Auto, by pressing the Auto button and begin paving.
7. After paving several feet/meters, check the mat thickness.
8. Use the Grade Adjustment Knob as needed to make changes to the mat thickness.
Getting Started Paving Using Slope Control
1. Setup the paver screed as you would to start paving manually.
2. Make sure the slope sensor is mounted onto the transverse beam of the paver.
3. To pave using slope control you must first calibrate the slope sensor to the screed.
4. Find a smooth area where the screed can rest evenly across its entire surface. Using a laser, a Smart Level,
or a slope board, that itself has been calibrated, check the slope and direction of fall of the ground
.
Slope Cal. Block must be set to Off in the Performance Menu to calibrate the slope sensor. Slope
Cal. Block will reset to On after five minutes.
