Webinar Information • This Webinar is LISTEN only QUESTIONS? Questions will be answered in writing at the end of the Webinar.
Machine Setup (Machine Builder) • Objectives of this lesson: • Review all the screens and steps required to properly configure your Grader or Dozer.
Motorgrader Antenna Selection • Topcon Twin (MC-A2) will require additional calibration not covered in this Webinar
Motorgrader Antenna Selection CR-3 Rev 1 MC-A2 & MC-A1
Measurements When making all the measurements for a Grader or Dozer use + numbers unless the measurement is opposite of what's being asked.
Motorgrader Above • Above Measurement • Slant height • Front Antenna Rim
Motorgrader Above • Above Measurement • Slant height • Front Antenna Rim
Motorgrader Inside • Inside Measurement • Vertical Pole (side to side) • Offset from center of Pole
Motorgrader Inside • Inside Measurement • Vertical Pole (side to side) • Offset from center of Pole
Motorgrader Behind • Behind Measurement • Vertical Pole (front to back) • Offset from center of Pole
Motorgrader Behind • Behind Measurement • Vertical Pole (front to back) • Offset from center of Pole Error!
Motorgrader Behind • Behind Measurement • Vertical Pole • Offset from center of Pole
Motorgrader Width • Width Measurement • Blade length (width)
Motorgrader Width • Width Measurement • End to End
GPS Precisions • GPS Precisions • Position Quality RTK • Max. GPS errors (roving) • GPS status will flash orange if RMS values are exceeded • Max. GPS errors (point measurement) • Tolerance for topo survey and measure point feature
GPS Comms Configuration • GPS Cooms Configuration • Setup screen for GPS receiver
GPS Comms Configuration • Connection • Serial Port MC 2.5 • TCP/IP 9905 & 9906 MC-R3 with 160 Boards • UDP/IP 9907 & 9908 MC-R3 112 Boards (3D-MC2 all MC-R3 since mid Feb) MC 2.5 MC-R3
GPS Comms Configuration • IP Address/Port/Password • Settings programmed on the GNSS receiver • All boxes use the same settings the default button sets defaults 9905 & 9906 160 boards 9907 & 9908 112 boards MC 2.5
GPS Radio Configuration Used to configure radio type also accessed in the Tools menu
LD-40 Setup • Search finds all attached LD-40 light bars and will populate the ID box • Select an LD-40 from the ID pull down • With the LD-40 selected the Identify button will cause all the lights flash
LD-40 Setup • Location • Select how the LD-40 is to be used • Left edge (position information for the left edge to the design surface) • Right edge (position information for the right edge to the design surface) • Cut/Fill (will be the point you select on the blade in the blade control menu) • Slope (the difference from actual slope to design slope matches 9168 LEDs) • Steering (LD-40 being used as a steering indicator)
LD-40 Setup • Centered • If checked the On-Grade will be positioned in the center of the LD-40 • If unchecked the On-Grade will be positioned on the lower half of the LD-40 • Typical application for Excavators or scrapers making large cuts working down to grade
LD-40 Setup • Inverted • The Inverted option selects the correct orientation of the LD-40
LD-40 Setup • Precisions • Set the sensitivity of the LD-40 LEDs. • 1 Fine - 5 Coarse • 1=15mm (per LED) • 2=20mm (per LED) • 3=30mm (per LED) • 4=50mm (per LED) • 5=100mm (per LED)
LD-40 Setup • Colors • Changes the Cut/Fill colors. • Yellow over Red • Red over Blue
LD-40 Setup • Auto/2D • The operator can select to have the LED on the Left or Right LD-40 illuminate when the machine is in auto. The Auto Left/Right selection is for 3D mode. The 2D Left/Right selection is for 2D mode. • When operating a Grader both the Right and Left Auto switches need to be in auto for the LED to illuminate.
Dozer Sensor Selection Select the appropriate sensor
Dozer System 5 System 5 sensor MC Builder
Dozer System 5 Ensure the Antenna is perpendicular to the tracks on level ground when making machine measurements.
Dozer Above Above Measurement
Dozer System 5 • Above Measurement • Slant height • Front Antenna Rim
Dozer Inside Ensure the antenna is vertical
Dozer Inside • Ensure the antenna is vertical • Drop plum bob from center of the vibration pole • Measure from the Right side of the blade
Dozer Behind • Dozer Behind Measurement • Drop plum bob from center of the vibration pole • Measure distance behind
