LMS Edgevision – V 2.2.x
1. Introduction
LMS (Load Management System) Edgevision – has following features:
• Measurement and visualization of operator’s most important machine parameters for normal
machine handling.
• Malfunction black box: all sensors malfunctions, overloads and bypass use are stored in a
permanent memory
• Operative black box: all information of containers moved is stored into a permanent memory

It shows the total container number ever lifted by the machine. Exit with F4
Bypass entering codes page. It is like the BYPASS key in the external keyboard

5. Safeties
In case of alarms, LMS will sound a buzzer with a frequency depending on the alarm number (each
alarm corresponds to a “beep” per second).
It is possible to bypass alarm sound with the bypass code 4444. The bypass use will be stored in the
black box.
Pressing the key on the panel the system shoes this screen:
Pressing the keys from F1 to F4 each digit increases by one unit, from 0 to 9, in order to compose a
4 digits number.

ASSISTANCE MANUAL
ATTENTION
This manual part is reserved to technical assistance, and it is important for LMS calibrations and
troubleshooting.
An incorrect calibration affects seriously machine safety.
In order to increase the safety, all calibrations procedure can be done only using and external and
removable keyboard, that allows to access to system’s menu.

3. Angle calibration
From main screen: MENU - 0 - 0 - 0.
12

4. Length calibration
From main screen: MENU - 0 - 0 – 1.
5. Load calibration
From main screen: MENU - 0 – 0 - 2.
The weight is calculated measuring the sum of the currents supplied by the two load cells.
So, it is necessary to calibrate these sensors with the spreader empty and with one reference load,
whose weight must be known.
For a good calibration, the selected weight must be closest possible to the machine maximum
capacity.
The real container weight must be set in the screen “reference loads” (see next paragraph), before
this calibration.
Procedure:
• With empty and centered spreader, check the load cells currents: they must be about the same.
If not, adjust the trimmer in the load cell amplifiers (located close to the load cell pin).
• Once currents are set, press F1 to store the value.
• Lock and lift the reference container (8 tons in the example) up to 20-30 degrees; wait for
currents stabilization (side shift the spreader to center the weight if necessary) and press F2 to
store the value.
• Then, press F3 per store the final calibration.

6. Reference loads
From main screen: MENU - 0 – 0 - 3.
Use this option to insert the reference loads necessary for the load calibration.
Usually, the minimum load is set to 0 (spreader empty); the maximum weight should be close to the
machine real maximum capacity.
NOTE:
This maximum reference inserted here load has nothing to do with the real machine capacity:
it is only a reference for the calibration
Reference loads
7. RPM Calibration
From main screen: MENU - 0 – 0- 4.
This option allows to calibrate the real engine according to a frequency signal, that can come from
alternator or magnetic pick up. References can be changed in the option “set rpm”.
Signal from RPM sensor
Procedure:
• Accelerate the engine at maximum RPM and press F1.
• Press F3 to calibrate or F4 to exit without calibrating.

Parameters
usa standard: 0
Value 1 indicates that all the measures are expressed in the USA standard: feet instead of meters
and pounds instead of tons.
Value 0 indicates the standard metric system.
Even with USA standard, all calibrations references must be expressed in the metric system.

12. Date-Time
From main screen: MENU - 0 – 5.
date: 12 / 3 / 2
time: 18 : 20
It is possible to adjust date and system time (they are used in the black boxes).
For all following options (except “Print calibrations”) it is necessary to get the proper
communication software, developed by FRED (SuperLoaderTM), that allows the complete
management of the LMS information. This software is not part of the standard supply, and it is sold
only to sub-dealers that manage big machines parks.
See help file in the SuperLoader program to get more details.

NOTE:
This options erases all boom angle, length and weight calibration.
All default values will be restored. A code is request for this operation.
After that, all these calibrations will have to be repeated manually or
downloading from external PC.

This is the list of analog sensors present in the system. Each signal is expressed in mA (milli-
ampere):
The above values must be always in the range as indicated in following table. Out of that range, the
sensor has to be considered fault or not connected.

F4 – exit 1 ..8 on/off
This option allows to force the output activation in oder to check the system and cabling.
For example, pressing 1 the status of DIG1 is forced to high (1, 24V), and pressing 1 again DIG1 is
resetted (0, 0V).
Once exited from the test, outputs will be automatically set by the control program.

It transmits all black box messages through the serial port RS232_1. See the paragraph “print
calibrations” for the serial port settings.
In the PC it is necessary a software like Hyperterminal of Windows.
