Verify measurements

  1. Select the Slope button on the 3D-MC main screen.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    Figure: Slope button
    The Adjust Slope screen opens.
  2. Select IMU Calibrated Values to see the list of the live values in the system.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    Figure: Adjust slope
  3. Make sure that the blade cross slope, body cross slope, and body mainfall values match those measured with a smart level within 0.2%.
  4. With the blade square, slowly lift it to its maximum height.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    While the blade moves, the blade cross slope values can vary but must be within 0.2% of the measurement made in the lowered position. If a value varies more than 0.2%, then the calibration to compensate for the orientation of the blade IMU is not accurate.
  5. Rotate the blade fully clockwise and record the maximum rotation angle shown on the screen.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    When the blade is squared, the blade rotation must be 0 degrees.
  6. Rotate the blade fully counter-clockwise and record the maximum rotation angle.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    Both maximum values must be approximately the same (one is a positive angle and the other is a negative angle). The absolute values of these two angles must be within less than 1 degree of each other.
  7. With the machine parked on the planar surface, use a smart level and magnets to transfer the cross slope of the machine to an easily accessible area on the rear of the machine.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
