INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing the HELJAN Container Terminal. The crane is digitally controlled, but don’t be frightened as the operation is simple and no specific experience with digital systems is needed to achieve full enjoyment of the crane. The basic model consists of the complete crane, control unit and two containers.
If you unplug the joystick while still in use it will cause interruption to the signal. As soon as the power is turned on and the display shows ‘HELJAN’ the control unit is ready for use. If you connect a joystick it will be identified and calibrated during the start up phase.The joystick cannot be identified in the display during use.
