3.The Learn Mode menu is displayed:

•Controls

•Ld Hndlr (Load Handler)

•Weight

•Wire Guidance

•Rail Guidance

Use the up/down and/or left/right buttons to select the category desired.

Learn Controls

With Controls selected at the Learn Mode menu, press Enter

During Learn Controls, the Carriage Manager control circuits are calibrated to the output voltage of the Rotate (VR3) and Traverse/Reach (VR4) pots.

The Carriage Manager also communicates the status of the Travel (VR1 ) and Lift (VR2) pots to the Tractor Manager for calibration.

This determines the neutral position for the command pots. The maximum and minimum positions are calculated during Run Mode and adjusted as necessary to compensate for component wear.

Learn Ld Hndlr (Load Handler)

Use Learn Load Handler to determine the extreme positions of the Rotate Position Feedback (VR6) and Traverse Position Feedback (VR5) pots, and opening points for the proportional valves (SOL7 and SOL8) by the Carriage Manager.

Modes of Operation 3-22

Make sure there is sufficient room for the Load Handler to traverse and rotate completely in both directions.

The fork carriage can be in any position at the start of Learn. However, for best results, start from the Load Handler nested right position.

With LD Hndlr selected at the Learn Mode menu, press Enter .

The Load Handler traverses and rotates with no control inputs once Lear n is selected and both Deadman pedals are pressed.

The Load Handler first rotates clockwise to the stop, then counterclockwise to the stop. The Load Handler hits the stops harder than when in Run Mode. The Load Handler should then rotate clockwise and counterclockwise again, slowing down just before reaching the stops.

The Load Handler then traverses left to the stop, pause, then traverse right to the stop. The Load Handler hits the stops harder than when in Run Mode. The Load Handler should then traverse left and right again, slowing down just before reaching the stops.

Learn Weight

Learn Weight is used to calibrate the weight displayed. The Main Lift Pressure transducer is used with the main lift cylinders and the Mini Lift Pressure transducer is used with the mini-mast lift cylinder.

Make sure there is sufficient lifting height to elevate both the main and mini-masts.

1.With Weight selected at the Learn Mode menu, press Enter. The following message should be displayed.

Lift main mast at least 4 inches with the forks empty, then press Enter
