Control Lever

General

TN: 03078546

The control levers used have a CAN bus interface, via which the following signals are
emitted:

X-axis: Set value, error code

Y-axis: Set value, error code
Rocker switch Left, right
Horn button: Signal

The signals of the dead man’s switch and the coil of the hoist drum rotation indicator
are connected externally to respective electrical devices.

The differentiation of the installation site is made by means of the identifier (CAN bus
address) of the control levers, which is adjusted via a rotary switch on the underside
of the control lever.

Adjusting the Identifiers

The plastic cover must first be removed from the rotary switch.

A screwdriver can now be used to change the position of the rotary switch.

The following applies with reference to the installation site:

Left Position 0: ID: 0x2F0 response to RTR = 1 (manufacturer’s delivery)

Right Position 2: ID: 0x2F1 response to RTR = 1

Once the adjustment has been completed, the plastic cover can be reinstalled.

Signal Description

Set Values of the control lever axis

The range of values for the set values is –100%..0..100% in stages of 0.5%, with:
Forwards/right = Positive
Back/left = Negative

The control levers are adjusted such that, on reaching the threshold trigger, the set
value assumes the value 0.5% or –0.5 and at the limit stop 100% or –100%.

If the electronics of the control lever detect a fatal error, the set value of the axis
concerned is fixed as 0.

Error code values:

0 = OK
1 = Warning - sensor should be replaced, operation possible
2 = Error, set value fixed at 0, no operation possible
32 = Error, set value fixed at 0, no operation possible

Rocker Switch

After switching on the ignition, the set value of the rocker switch is 0 until such time
as the control system detects that it is not activated. Only after that does the
evaluation of the rocker switch begin.

Key left Key right Set value Error

0 0 0 OK
0 1 1 OK
1 0 -1 OK
1 1 0 ERROR

Horn Button

After switching on the ignition the button only becomes active, when the control
system detects that it is not activated.

Checking the Control Lever with the Service Software

If the laptop is connected via the serial interface with UNIT 2 (cab), the information for
the appropriate control lever can be accessed via the menus [drive units][control
lever console left/right].

Can Connection OK

If there is a check mark in the corresponding field, the control lever is detected by
ECOS via the CAN bus.

X-axis/Y-axis set value: Shows the set value of the axis which is transmitted by the
control lever. This value does not have to correspond with the set value of the
associated drive unit (speed restriction, curve of the control lever).
Error code: 0 = OK,
1 = Warning (operation possible)
2 = Redundant system failed (axis failed)
32 = Hardware error (control lever failed)

Rocker Switch Set Value

Shows the set value, with which ECOS is working. The set value of the rocker switch
can have the value 0, although a switch is activated. This happens when the ECOS
has not yet detected that the rocker switch was not activated.

Error code: 0 = OK,

14 = Logic error, set value = 0

Rocker Switch Left/Right, Horn Button

Shows the current value of the buttons as they are transmitted by the control lever.
