12.2.2 Adjustment
Tools needed for adjustment:
•
A small screwdriver for trimmers
•
Test load
Adjustment can be done with either a test load of exactly 100% of the rated load of the hoist, or with a
known load in the range of 80…130% of the rated lifting capacity.
The adjustment is carried out in two steps:
•
Zero load adjustment
•
“Known load” adjustment
12.2.3 Zero load adjustment
Adjustment is done with trimmer “ZERO”
•
Verify that there is no load in the hook
•
Check the LED “0%”
•
If the LED 0% is ON, turn the trimmer counter-clockwise until the LED just goes off
•
If the LED 0% is OFF, turn the trimmer clockwise until the LED lights up, then counter-clockwise until
the LED just goes off.
•
The output voltage (measured between terminal 1 and 3) should be about 4 VDC (+/- 0.5 VDC)
12.2.4 Adjustment with higher load
Adjustment is done with trimmer “GAIN”
•
Lift the higher load and wait until the load hangs steady and does not swing
•
Check the LED “100%”
•
If the LED “100%” is ON, turn the trimmer clockwise until the LED just goes off
•
If the LED is OFF, turn the trimmer counter-clockwise until the LED lights up, then clockwise until the
LED just goes off.
•
The output voltage (measured between terminal 1 and 3) should be about 6 VDC (+/- 0.5 VDC)
•
Lower the load and verify that the “0%” LED remains OFF
•
Lift the load again and verify that the “100%” LED remains OFF
