1. GENERAL INFORMATION
This manual describes the function, operation and maintenance of the DS 350 Load Moment Indicator
1
(LMI).
The LMI has been designed to provide the crane operator with the essential information required to
enable the machine to be used within its design parameters.
Using various sensing devices, the Load Moment Indicator monitors various crane functions and provides the operator with a continuous reading of the crane's capacity. The readings continuously
change as the crane moves through the motions needed to make the lift.
The LMI provides the operator with information regarding the length and angle of the boom, tip height,
working radius, rated load and the total calculated weight being lifted by the crane.
If non permitted conditions are approached, the DS 350 Load Moment Indicator will warn the operator
by sounding an audible alarm, lighting a warning light and locking out those functions that may aggravate the crane's condition.
1
LOAD MOMENT: generally the product of a force and its moment arm; specifically, the product of the load and the load-
radius. Used in the determination of the lifting capacity of a crane.

2. WARNINGS
The LMI is an operational aid which warns a crane operator of approaching overload conditions and
also warns of overhoist conditions which could cause damage to equipment and personnel.
WARNING
The device is not, and shall not, be a substitute for good operator judgment, experience and
use of accepted safe crane operating procedures.
The responsibility for the safe operation of the crane shall remain with the crane operator
who shall ensure that all warnings and instructions supplied are fully understood and observed.
Prior to operating the crane, the operator must carefully and thoroughly read and understand the information in this manual to ensure that he knows the operation and limitations
of the indicator and crane.
Proper functioning is dependent upon proper daily inspection and observations of the operating instructions set forth in this manual.
WARNING
The displays will only aid the operator when the LMI is properly programmed and the proper
load capacity chart is selected for the crane configuration being utilized. To prevent property damage or serious bodily injury or death to personnel, ensure the LMI is properly programmed before operating the crane.
WARNING
This system is equipped with an override key on the central microprocessor unit. This key
switch bypasses control lever lock-out function of load moment indicator device. The
switch may only be used by authorized personnel during emergency situations. Failure to
follow this instruction may result in property damage and/or personal injury.

3. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The PAT Load Moment Indicator DS 350 consists of a central micro processor unit, operating console
and various peripheral sensors.
The system operates on the principle of reference/real comparison. The real value, resulting from the
pressure measurement is compared with the reference data, stored in the central processor memory
and evaluated in the micro processor. When limits are reached, an overload warning signal is generated at the operator's console. At the same time, the dangerous crane movements, such as hoist up,
telescope out and boom down, will be stopped.
The fixed data regarding the crane, such as capacity charts, boom weights, centers of gravity and
dimensions are stored in memory chips in the central processor unit. This data is the reference information used to calculate the operating conditions.
System operation is controlled partially by automatic devices such as angle sensors and partially by
manual devices such as switches on the operator's console.
Boom length and boom angle are registered by the length/angle sensor, mounted inside the cable
reel which is mounted on the boom. The crane load is measured by pressure transducers attached to
the piston and rod side of the lift cylinders.

3.1 SYSTEM FUNCTION
After ignition of the engine, the system starts with an automatic test of all lamps, the displays, the
audible alarm and the complete system. All segments on the display are triggered. Upon completion
of the different tests without errors, the key "operating mode" (6) lights up. The system now awaits
either the acknowledgment of the operating mode code displayed in the field K of the data display
(1) or the input of a new operating mode code corresponding to the momentary crane configuration.
Then, real load, lifted load as well as different crane data are now displayed on the LCD screen. Only
now the system is in ready for operation.
Note: When turning off the system, the adjusted values for operating mode and reeving will be
stored.
In case of malfunction, the respective error code "E##" will be displayed on the data display (1) in the
field M (please refer to chapters 3.4 and 7).
3.2 OPERATOR'S CONSOLE
The console has two functions:
· terminal for input of instructions to the system by the crane operator
· display of important data and information
The operating console is located in the operator's cabin in front of the operator. For a better identification of displays and operating elements they are permanently backlit during operation. The console
contains different operating elements as well as a multi-functional LC display which are described in
detail in chapters 3.3 and 3.4.

(1) DATA DISPLAY
The DATA DISPLAY (1) is a multi-functional LC display which shows load, geometrical and crane
data. The display is further described at chapter 3.4.
(2) ANTI-TWO BLOCK INDICATOR
The red ANTI-TWO-BLOCK INDICATOR (2) will light up when the
anti-two-block limit switch contacts open, indicating that a twoblocking condition is approaching. At the same time the audible
alarm will sound.
The following crane movements will be stopped subsequently:
hoist up, telescope out, boom down.
WARNING
This condition, if not prevented, will cause the wire rope to break, allowing the load to fall.
Two blocking can be caused by raising the load into the boom head, lowering the boom
without paying out hoist line and, in case of a hydraulic crane, by extending the boom without paying out hoist line.

· The procedure on how to enter the reeving is described in chapter 4.2.
(8) Button "Taring"
The button "TARE" (8) serves to output the net load on the load
display (see #F, chapter 3.4). The net load is the real load minus
tackle and hook block. The button "TARE" has to be actuated before starting the lifting procedure.
Upon actuation of the button "TARE" (8) the load display is set to
zero (tared) and the tare symbol (see #G, chapter 3.4) starts to
blink. When the load is lifted, the load display shows the net load
(payload).
As soon as the working radius (by angle or radius modification) is
modified, the display shows again the real load and the taring
function is completed.
NOTE
The real load contains hook block, lifting rope and all tackle. The net load is the present
load on the hook without tackle. Display errors can be caused by environmental influences
such as wind acting on boom or load.
