Power up the system and allow several minutes for the 3D-MC software to detect the sensors.
Before calibrating the sensors on the excavator systems, set up each sensor in 3D-MC. You will need
the following information:
• the last two digits of the sensor’s serial number
• the physical orientation of the sensor mounting
