Getting Ready to
Pave
This chapter is designed to get the paving crew started using
System Five™. The job application and the desired results will
determine what type of non-contacting controls should be used; i.e.
sonic, slope, laser and SAS.
• For Sonic Tracker II and SmoothTrac SAS setup, first attach the
Sonic Trackers, then setup the Control Box.
• For Slope Sensor setup, first attach and power up the Control
Box, then check the sensor’s calibration to ensure correct grade.
• For Laser Tracker setup, first setup the laser transmitter, attach
the Laser Tracker to the machine, then setup the Control Box.
The components should be mounted on the paver and then the paver
itself must be properly set up.
