6150 steering calibration, straight line tracking

this guide is for the 6150 only

 

Plus 1 Paver Control Calibration


Turn the machine off. Open the dash board panel and locate the Optimize/Calibrate switch and place it into the Calibrate position.


Place all steering wheels and joysticks in the center position and move the Run/Stop switch into the
Run position. If two control boxes are present place the other Run/Stop switch to the stop position.
Turn machine on and the status light will blink rapidly to indicate Calibration Mode.
Start the engine and run at ½ throttle


Setting the threshold:


1. Turn the steering wheel full left; Move FNR joystick forward until machine begins to move
    slightly, back off on handle until machine stops, then toggle run/stop switch from run to stop
    and back to run. Return joystick to neutral. The status light will now blink 2 times with a
    pause indicating to move to step 2.
2. With steering wheel still at full left; Move FNR joystick reverse until machine begins to move
    slightly, back off on handle until machine stops, then toggle run/stop switch from run to stop
    and back to run. Return joystick to neutral. The status light will now blink 3 times with a
    pause indicating to move to step 3.
3. Turn the steering wheel full right. Move FNR joystick forward until machine begins to move
    slightly, back off on handle until machine stops, then toggle run/stop switch from run to stop
    and back to run. Return joystick to neutral. The status light will now blink 4 times with a
    pause indicating to move to step 4.
4. With steering wheel still at full right; Move FNR joystick reverse until machine begins to
    move slightly, back off on handle until machine stops, then toggle run/stop switch from run to
    stop and back to run. Return joystick to neutral. The status light will now blink 5 times with a
    pause indicating to move to step 5. 


Setting the straight line tracking:


Note: The hydraulic system configuration make this process optional. The following steps can be used to
limit the machines maximum travel speed. If this is not necessary skip to step 10.


5. Move FNR joysticks forward until machine begins to move forward slowly, adjust the
    steering wheel as necessary to make sure machine is traveling straight. Toggle Run/Stop
    switch from Run to stop and back to run
6. Move FNR Joystick to approximately 1/2 joystick position, adjust the steering wheel as
    necessary to make sure machine is traveling straight. Toggle Run/Stop switch from Run to
    stop and back to run.
7. Move FNR Joystick to full forward. When the machine has achieved full speed, reduce
    joystick position until the machine slows to the desired maximum speed. Adjust the steering
    wheel as necessary to make sure machine is traveling straight. Toggle Run/Stop switch from
    Run to stop and back to run.

NOTE: This setting determines the machines
maximum speed. Any joystick movement beyond this point will have no
effect on the machines forward speed.


8. Repeat for reverse.

9. Bring the FNR joystick to neutral and center the steering wheel.

10. Keeping power to the Plus One, Toggle Optimize/Calibrate switch to the center “off”
      position. (this will write the calibration values to memory).  
11. Turn off and restart machine. Run machine to verify acceptable operation.
