MicroGuard 424 Installation Data
This MicroGuard® 424 System Manual is designed to assist the fully trained and experienced crane technician in the safe and proper installation of the MicroGuard® 424 System. At no time may this System be used as a substitute for the usual safety practices and precautions required for the safe setup and operation of the crane.
DISPLAY
Mount the display in the cab where it can be easily observed without obstructing the view through the cab window. Position the display cable so that it will not hinder the normal operation of the levers and controls of the crane.
COMPUTER
Mount the computer inside or outside of the cab with the cable glands facing down. Ensure that there is enough cable line from the other sensors. Note: The cable to the pressure transducers cannot be increased by splicing in additional cable.
PRESSURE TRANSDUCERS
Do not remove the existing transducers in the hydraulic system unless a failure occurs. If the transducers are confirmed to have failed, then replace them accordingly. On upgrades from the RLI-200, it will be necessary to remove the connectors from the computer end of the cable. Do this, but cut the cable as close to the connector as possible. This will give you as much cable length as possible.
EXTENSION REEL CABLE TO COMPUTER
Connect the cable to the extension reel. Route the cable to avoid cable damage, i.e., cutting or pinching during the normal movement of the boom. When upgrading the existing extension reel with a new angle sensor and connector, use the following table for wiring at the extension reel terminal block. Use Appendices A-D for reference. Use Cable A047013 from extension reel to computer.
