Verifying Setup
Aftermountingandcalibratingthesensors,verifytheaccuracyofthesensorsandtheeff ectivenessof
communicationwiththecontrolbox.Occasionally,thesesameverificationscanbeperformedafterseveral
monthsofusetoensurecontinuedexca vatingaccuracy.
For2Dsystems,thesectionsinthischapterarenotnecessaryasallverificationmethodsuseGPSantennas.
Therefore,elevationsmustbeverifiedfor2Dsystems.
Verifying Range of Motion
Verifyingtherangeofmotionvia3D‐MCwillensurethatallsensor sareworkingandcommunicatingwiththe
GX‐60ortheGX‐30.
Onthe Main screenof3D‐MC,viewaprofileandmovethevariouspartsofthemachine.
• Forthebody,tiltthemachinefront‐to‐back,thenleft‐to‐right.Theon‐screengraphicoftheex cavator
shouldtiltinthesamedirections.
Fortheboom,stickandbucket,slowlymoveeachthroughasmuchofthefullrangeofmotionaspr actical.
Verifythesamemovementonthe3D‐MCscreen.

Ifafullrangeofmotiondoesnotoccurforthemachineimage,checkthefollowing:
• Thecorrectsensorhasbeenselectedforeachmachineelementin3D‐MC.
• Thecorrectorientationhasbeenselected.
• Thesensorcalibrationiscorrect.
• Asensorhasnotbeenselectedformorethanonelocation.
• Eachsensorisoperational.
Navigatetoeachsensor’scalibrationscreenandcheckthat Pitch and Roll valuesarepresentandchangewith
themachine’smove ment.Ifthevaluesareblank,thatsensorisnotreportingvalues:eitherthesensorhasnot
yetbeenfoundbytheGX‐60,orthesensorisnotfunctional.
Itisdifficulttorolltheexca vator.Ifnecessary,movethemachineontoasideslopetoverifytheroll.
