Control Box Setup for Cross Slope
The slope sensor should already be mounted on the transverse beam
of the paver. The sensor can talk to both control boxes, but only one
at a time. The sensor communicates to the Control Box through the
cable.
To pave using cross slope you must first calibrate the slope sensor,
to the screed.
1. 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 cross slope and
direction of fall of the ground (Figure 5-12).

2. Place the screed on the ground and null it out.
