    FIRST STEPS This chapter will provide you with information n connecti and setting up DUO2 . In addition a description of the symbols and displays used in the working window will be explained. 3.1 BASIC SETUP The DUO control panel can be setup in multiple different configurations as illustrated below.
  • Page 13: Cable Connections

    DUO using A.R.S.080 cable. The end of the cable with the bare wires should be connected to the valves as explained in the following section. Note that the hydraulic valves are normally part of the machine and are not supplied by the MOBA Australia.
  • Page 14: Hydraulic Alve Onfiguration

    3.4 HYDRAULIC VALVES CONFIGURATION The CB.D2.CAN can manually and automatically drive most of the commercially available solenoid valves, including popular brands such as Danfoss, Eaton- Vickers, Rexroth and others. It has four different types of hydraulic output drive signal available, suitable for different types of valves as explained in the table below.
  • Page 15 The CB.D2.CAN is normally supplied with hydraulic cable A.RS.080 which has colour-coded and labelled bare wires on one end allowing the user to connect their valve according to the particular hydraulic output type requirement for that valve. Below are examples of how to connect the bare wires for each of the four hydraulic output types using as examples some common valve brands and assuming Hirschmann type connector (CETOP valves).

  • Page 17 The CB.D2.CAN can optionally drive an additional On/Off type valve which can be used for auxiliary functions such as, for example, moving a wheel up and down on a skid steer machine. This hydraulic output can normally only be activated manually using the Aux Up and Down buttons. In special cases, when selected through the Advanced Settings in the menu, the Aux Up can be activated automatically whenever the main hydraulic output (up or down) is activated.
  • Page 18: Powering P U

    3.5 POWERING UP Before powering up the DUO for the first time, a visual inspection is recommended to confirm everything is connected correctly and is well secured (refer top sections 3.1 - 3.4). Check and confirm especially that the type of hydraulic valves has been correctly determined and the wiring has been done as per section 3.4 for the particular type of valves.

  • Page 38: Dead Band Adjustments

    5.1.2 DEAD BAND ADJUSTMENTS This defines the accuracy of the system. The bigger the deadband, the less accurate the system is but the easier it is to achieve fast and stable hydraulic response Conversely, the smaller the deadband the more accurate the system is but the harder it is to achieve fast and stable hydraulic response.
  • Page 39: Proportional Range Djustment A

    5.1.3 PROPORTIONAL RANGE ADJUSTMENT The Proportional Range is the range of the sensor reading above and below the target over which the hydraulic output signal varies proportionally to the deviation of the sensor reading from the target. The Min hydraulic output is applied when the sensor reading is just outside the deadband (beginning of the Proportional range) and the Max hydraulic out put is reached when the sensor reading deviates from the Target by by an amount equal to or greater than the selected Proportional range.
  • Page 40: Measurement Mode

    5.1.5 MEASUREMENT MODE The measurement mode for sensors with ability to zero the reading can switch between Relative [REL] and Absolute [ABS]. Relative mode means that the sensor reading is relative to the position where the zeroing occurred. Absolute mode means the sensor reading is taken from the factory default ero position for example, for laser sensors this is the physical centre of the receiving area.

    CALIBRATI SLOPE & TRACE SENSORS 5.2.1 BEFORE CALIBRATING SLOPE SENSOR Using the slope sensor for the first time or after remounting, it is important that it is mounted and calibrated correctly. The mounting should be robust enough to guarantee that the sensor will not move while the blade is being used. Preferably the sensor should not be removed once mounted so as to avoid having to repeat the calibration procedure.
  • Page 42 The operating range of the trace sensor is maximum 450 mm and minimum 250 mm and during normal grading operations, it is recommended that the sensor is at a distance from the tracked surface roughly midway between the maximum and minimum , ie;...

    PRACTICAL EXAMPLE The following example is provided to help demonstrate how setting reference offsets, zeroing and mounting would be done in practice. This example involves a race sensor. Assume the grading requirement is to maintain a relative distance of -50 mm between the cutting edge of the blade and the top of the curb as shown in igure below.
  • Page 59 OPTION 2: 1. Position the cutting edge of the blade to be level with the top of the curb and the ultrasonic sensor to be above the curb as shown in the illustrations below. The ultrasonic sensor should be approximately 380-420 mm above the curb that is, 50 mm above the desired sensor range of 330-370 mm during normal grading operations.
