Setting synchronisation control [1] [2]

The synchronization control system for crane travel, trolley travel and lifting/lowering is factory set and adapted for the majority of situations.

If necessary, the maximum synchronisation deviation and the sensitivity curve can be adjusted to the on-site conditions.

For this work step, access from a laptop or tablet computer to KranOS is necessary. The user "Abnahme" (commissioning) (user level ‚[2]) or "Service" (user level [1]) must be logged in.

 

Opening the synchronisation control settings

Overview: Navigation in KranOS

User "Service" or "Abnahme" (commissioning) à "Movement profile"

From program version 1.2.0.4

 

* Log in to KranOS with user "Service" (user level ‚[1]) or "Abnahme" (commissioning) (user level [2]). See Connecting laptop or tablet computer with ABUControl, page  .

* In the start window: Click on the "Movement profile" menu item in the "Settings" menu (gear wheel on yellow background).

 

 

Setting synchronisation control

Warnung Vorsicht

Danger due to incorrect settings!

If incorrect settings are made, the synchronisation control will no longer function properly. This could, for example, result in cranes, trolleys or load hooks in joint or tandem operation no longer moving synchronously and running apart. This could cause the load to fall, killing or injuring people.

Only make moderate changes to the settings and test them thoroughly!

●   The "Movement profile" window appears.

●   The current settings of the synchronisation control are displayed.

* Modify the sensitivity curve for crane travel, trolley travel and lifting/lowering moderately in small steps when adapting it to the on-site conditions, and always test it again through a trial run.

The sensitivity curve can be set to between "0.01" and "10.0". The smallest value (factor 0.01) corresponds to a slow control response. As the factor increases, the sensitivity of the control response increases.

* Modify the maximum synchronisation deviation in small steps when adapting it to the on-site conditions, and always test it again through a trial run.

The maximum synchronisation deviation is the maximum distance of the crane, trolley or load hook in joint or tandem operation.

The hoist maximum synchronisation deviation is specified in metres.

The maximum synchronisation deviation for trolley travel and crane travel is specified in microamperes (measured by the distance sensor). The level of 100 microamperes corresponds to about 0.22 m (for a distance sensor in the standard setting).
