Slope Sensor
The slope sensor (Figure 1-5) is a precision electronic sensor
which functions much like a precision carpenter's level. The
slope sensor reads the inclination (tilt) of the screed and sends
the signal to the Control Box. The slope sensor measures slopes
from +20% to -20%.
The slope sensor connects to each Control Box through an
electrical cable and requires no adjustments, and is the only
component of System Five that can be used to control either
side of the paver. The slope sensor is a sealed component, and
once attached to the Paver, should not be removed.
