WARNING
Imminent threat of personal injury and damage to property due to incorrect system settings!
The correct adjustment of the SLI to the current set-up status is essential for the correct
function of the system and of the crane.
The SLI can only operate correctly if all settings are entered correctly accordin g to the
current set-up status during the SETUP procedure.
The settings can only be carried out by operators who are completely familiar with the
operation and functions of the crane and the SLI.
The correctness of these settings must be guaranteed before starting the crane operations!
IMPORTANT
Connection to the wrong power supply will cause damage to the device.
The device may only be connected to a DC voltage source of 10 V to 30 V!
1.1 EC conformity declaration
The technical design and construction of the vSCALE D3 console corresponds to requirements of
the EMC directive 2004/108/EC and therefore carries the CE symbol.
The device complies with the following harmonised standards:
EN 12895:200, EN 13309:2010, EN ISO 14982: 2009
The full conformity declaration is available from the manufacturer on request.

Product description
2 Product description
The vSCALE D3 console is the operable component of the programmable safe load indicator,
referred to below as the “SLI”. The SLI detects the readings from different sensors and recognises
crane overload statuses depending on further parameters. Visual and acoustic signals alert the
user of the overload status.
The SLI comprises:
a cSCALE S6 central control unit
the vSCALE D3 display and operating console
various sensors for detection of readings
The control unit, sensors and operating consoles are installed in su itable positions onto or inside
the crane.
Scope of manual
Type plate
(Example)
The vSCALE D3 console is used for:
programming and inputting operating parameters
displaying the current crane operati ng data
This user manual contains information about installation, commissioning, operation and sensor
calibration and about repairs and maintenance.
2.1 Product identification
The type plate carries the unique identification of the operating console. It is located on the back of
the device.
Please ensure you make a note of all the information on your type plate for queries about this
product.

Product description
2.2 Use for the intended purpose
The vSCALE D3 is the operable component of the safe load ind icator (SLI).
The SLI detects a crane overload status depending on various parameters.
The crane driver is warned well before the onset of an overload status via visual and acoustic
warning signals.
Although the system has signal outputs to switch off the crane movements which increase the load
moment, this power-off should only be effective with corresponding external wiring.
Although the system incorporates functions for monitoring adjustable geometrical limit values with
visual and acoustic warnings and a relay output in the event of limit values being exceeded, the
system cannot be used as an operational limit switch.
The crane driver is responsible for the safe operation of the crane.

4.2 Adjust SLI to latest set-up status
SETUP procedure
Selecting operating
mode
The SLI must be adjusted to the current crane set-up status by completing the full SETUP
procedure after start-up (device has been switched off for longer than 2 hours) and after any
change to the crane configuration. The process is step-by-step and is menu-guided. Operation is
with the rotary control.
The system is not ready to operate until the full SETUP procedure has been completed.
WARNING
Imminent threat of personal injury and damage to property due to incorrect system settings!
The correct adjustment of the SLI to the current set-up status is essential for the correct
function of the system and of the crane.
The SLI can only operate correctly if all settings are entered correctly accordin g to the
current set-up status during the SETUP procedure.
The settings can only be carried out by operators who are completely familiar with the
operation and functions of the crane and the SLI.
The correctness of these settings must be guaranteed before starting the crane operations!
Depending on the inputs during the SETUP procedure and on various sens or values, the system
automatically determines the corresponding operating mode with the associated lifting capacity
table. The operating mode used by the system at any one time is displayed as a code in the status
row:
50-700-19-2001_422175_en (Manitex)_Rev_B.doc / 2012-03-13 / Issue B / rk.
The settings made during the SETUP procedure are saved for 2 hours. When the system is
switched back on, e.g. after a short interruption to the work, the settings need simply to be checked
and confirmed.
The process for setting the SLI to the current crane set-up status (SETUP procedure) includes the
following steps:
Selecting the outrigger and support base
Selection of the boom configuration and fly jibs
Selection of the man basket / load block
Entering the number of rope reevings
Selection of hoisting winch

Early overload warning
This yellow symbol flashes to indicate that the crane load is or has already exceeded 90% of the
safe working load. An overload status may therefore be imminent!
At the same time the acoustic alarm sounds again with increasingly rapid alarm pulses.
Overload warning
This red symbol is lit to indicate that the maximum crane load has been reached or has already
been exceeded. At the same time the yellow warning symbol is lit.
The acoustic alarm sounds an uninterrupted tone.
Warning, SLI bypass
This red symbol lights up during the manual override of the power-off function of the safe load
indicator.
No acoustic alarm. This status is recorded in the data logger.
Warning, stroke end (A2B)
This red symbol lights up to indicate that a stroke end status has occurred.
function key.
A stroke end status is recorded if the load block comes into contact with the boom head. There is a
danger in this case that the lifting rope will break and the load will drop. A stroke end state can be
caused by the load being pulled against the boom head or the boom being extended or lowered
without playing out the lifting rope.
The red STOP symbol also lights up at the same time. The acoustic alarm sounds an uninterrupted
tone.
Warning, stroke end bypass
The symbol is lit during the override of the power-off function of the hoist limit switch system.
No acoustic alarm. This status is recorded in the data logger.

5.3 SLI setup
The SLI must be reset to the current crane set-up status after commissioning and after any change
to the crane configuration by completing the full SETUP procedure. The process is step-by-step
and is menu-guided.
WARNING
Imminent threat of personal injury and damage to property due to incorrect system settings!

Operation
5.8 Load taring
This function key is used to output the net load to the current load display. The net load is the
current load minus hoisting gear and load block. The “TARE” key must be pressed before
commencing the hoist action.
After actuation, the current load display is set to zero (tared). After hoisting the load, the current
load display then displays the net load (payload). As soon as the load status is changed (by a
change in angle or radius) the display shows the current load again and the taring function is
ended.
NOTE
The current load includes the weight of the load block, the lifting rope and all load-slinging
attachments.
The net load is the actual load on the hook without load-slinging attachments.
Environmental influences can lead to incorrect displays (e.g. wind affecting the boom or
load).
5.9 Switching off alarm
The acoustic alarm can be suppressed for a short period by pressing this function key.

Repair
The vSCALE D3 operating console contain s no wearing parts and therefore cannot be opened. If
you notice malfunctions or differences between actual and displaye d measured values, you should
switch the device off and have it checked and, if necessary, repaired immediately by an authorised
Hirschmann service partner.
You must always keep the full details contained on the type plate to hand.
Clean the surface and the front screen of the device occasionally with a damp cloth and a mild
detergent. Never use abrasive or aggressive detergents however as these may damage the device.
IMPORTANT
Device may be damaged by the use of high pressure cleaners.
The device must not be treated with a high pressure cleaner or similarly aggressive methods
under any circumstances!
Damage to the front foil can lead to the penetration of moisture and dirt into the interior of the
device, so that it must then be repaired properly without delay.
Keep the contacts and the area around the device connectors clean and check occasionally that all
connections are secure.
If parts are damaged, these must be repaired properly or replaced immediately.
