Operator's Manual iFLEX E5/1 - Load Moment Indicator

1. General Information
The Hirschmann load moment indicator (herein refer to LMI) iFLEX E5/1 and control
system are designed for all types of mobile cranes.
The iFLEX E5/1 can provide the crane operator with important information necessary
for the operation of the crane within the areas of operation specified by the manufacturer.
The LMI uses a variety of different sensors to monitor different crane functions and
communicates the crane performance data to the crane operator on a continuous basis.
This data changes constantly in connection with the crane movements.
The LMI provides the operator with the information of the length and angle of the
boom, tip height, working radius, rated load and the actual load weight and so on.
If the crane nears its safe load limit, the system will warn the crane operator by means
of both acoustic and optical signals. In addition, as soon as the crane reaches an
unauthorized operating status, all crane movements will be switched off that would
increase the load moment on the crane.
This manual only introduced the operating method of the LMI. Details of the crane
operating standards please refer to the crane operating manual provided by the crane
manufacturers.
This manual is for XMGC QUY220/QUY250/QUY260/QUY280/QUY300 crawler crane.
Please read it carefully before starting the operation and take the actual crane console
display as standard.

3.System Configuration

System configuration graph

The LMI and control system consist of an iFLEX E5/1 central unit, an iSCOUT expert 2001
console and various sensors for recording the measured values.
The system operates on the principle of reference/real comparison. The actual value is
compared with the calculated reference values and evaluated by the system. An overload
warning signal is triggered on the display and operating console once limit values are
reached. All machine movements that increase the load moment are switched off at the
same time.
The crane-specific data specified by the manufacturer, such as load capacity charts, boom
weights, centers of gravity and dimensions, are stored in the central data memory. This
data is the reference information used to calculate the operating conditions.
The boom angle is measured by means of angle sensors that are mounted on the boom.
The crane load is determined indirectly with the aid of force transducers.

6 Inspection maintenance and considerations

6.1 Inspection before operation


 Check all components of the LMI system to make sure no one is damaged or break off.
 Turn the power on and detect that if the display is normal and if there is warning,
malfunction, error indication and so on.
 After display works normally, detect that if all the system works normally.

6.2 Routine maintenance


 Check the angle transducer .as to oil leakage.
 Check the cable reel as to sufficient tight or not.
 Check the insulating layer of all the cables. If the insulating layer or the wire inside
damaged, please replace new one immediately.
 Clean the display termly to make it clear.

6.3 3 Routine consideration


 Prevent the central unit (display)、power supply cabin、sensors from severely shake.
 Each part of the LMI system including central unit (display), sensors and so on had been
regulated critically and ingress protection checked before leaving factory. Anyone not be
trained professionally is prohibited from dismantling the housing. Otherwise, the system
will probably not work normally because of humidity and dust getting into the
components.

6.4 Buzzer alarms


If the system shows normal without any fault codes after started, but the buzzer alarms. At
the moment, exam whether the conjunction between cable and A2B is junction off or short
circuit of water-in.

6.5 Angle sensor adjustment


Use the angle instrument to measure if the
displayed value is the same when the actual
angle is between 0°and 70°. If the displayed
value or radius is not the same with the actual
value, operators should adjust the angle
sensor. Release the adjusting bolt (see the
left pic.),Slowly turn the angle sensor till the
displayed value accords with the actual value
and then tighten the bolt again.

7. Trouble shooting

In case of any improper operation or LMI malfunction during the crane’s operation it
will display some certain code (error code) for the user’s information. Some errors are
caused by illegal operation, some by people’s cause and some are caused by other
factors.
The following codes can be an aid and help for how to use and maintenance the LMI
system:
