Boom Indicators
Injection Pump Switches
The boom section on/off indicators (lower right, labeled BOOMS), indicate which boom sections are active (turned on).
There is a maximum of nine boom section positions available.
1.6 INJECTION PUMP SWITCHES (TASC 6300 and 6600 only)
(Refer to Appendix D for these switch functions in "Handgun Mode".)
The injection pump switches (lower left) are used to activate the injection pumps. Up to six separate injection pumps can
be controlled by the TASC console. Each pump has its own product switch and indicator light. When the switch is in the
down position, the injection pump is OFF. When the switch is in the ON position, the pump is pumping at the standard
target rate, (the pump indicator light glows steadily). When the switch is in the Alt. Rate position, the pump is pumping
at the alternate target rate (the indicator light blinks and the console beeps periodically, indicating a non-standard
operation).
1.7 STATUS SWITCH
An externally mounted status switch can be used to control the injection pumps and the flow control valve. The switch
must present a positive voltage (+12.0 VDC) status on the green or white wire of the boom interface cable. As long as
this condition is present, TASC operates normally. If the voltage is interrupted, the TASC automatically stops the
injection pumps. At the same time, TASC either "CLOSE's" the flow control valve or "HOLD's" it in its current position,
depending on the response selected by the operator (See Section 2.9).
The intent of this feature is to allow the operator to control the operation of TASC through the normal operation of the
vehicle. The status switch can be used to sense the "ON"/"OFF" condition of the main vehicle pump or the switch may
sense an implement "UP"/"DOWN" condition. Use of the status switch can lessen the operator's work load under certain
conditions.
