GS222-05 SYSTEM & GS SERIES SENSORS

1: GENERAL

1.1 Overview

The GS222-05 Wireless Gateway acts as a base station for GS series wireless sensors. Not limited to crane applications, the Gateway can be used in a wide range of industrial process monitoring situations. The WRCM doesn’t have an integrated display; it provides a bridge from GS wireless sensors to an existing RS232 automotive or industrial automation network. The system is primarily configured via a USB cable using the PC software tool WM Configurator.

1.2 About This Manual

1.3 Start-Up

The Gateway has been pre-configured for the system with which it shipped. It starts up with its green light flashing as it wakes up the system sensors and creates a radio communication link with each. Once a reliable communication network is established, the green light stops flashing. This process may take up to 60 seconds. Thereafter the green light flashes only when the Gateway communicates with sensors.

WARNING

THE gS222-05 SYSTEM IS DESIgNED

AS AN OPERATOR AID AND IS IN

NO WAY A SUBSTITUTE FOR SAFE

OPERATINg PRACTICE.

CHAPTER 1: gENERAL

2: OPERATION

2.1 Normal Operation

Radio communication between sensors and the Gateway is made in packets. Radio packets include both the source and destination ID numbers. This allows the Gateway to send acknowledgements back to the transmitter.

On start-up the Gateway sends a radio packet to each of the system sensors. This communication wakes the sensor and identifies the Gateway as the network controller. The sensor then sends future communications to the Gateway.

Sensors transmit once every 60 seconds and whenever their measurement changes by more than a default threshold. Example: A wind speed sensor transmits when wind speed varies by 2 mph or more.

The Gateway sends a packet on the RS232 network every time a sensor communication is received.

2. Install two new retaining screws (QV338) into transmitter case.

3. Install new 3.6 Vdc lithium battery.

Step 4: Reassemble

1. Place transmitter onto gasket/back plate.

2. Use the 1/8” allen wrench to tighten screws to

12 inch/lbs (1.35 Nm) of torque.

If a proper torque driver is not available, apply half of one revolution to the screws once the thread of the screws is correctly engaged to ensure proper tightening.

5.2 Replacing a Sensor Antenna

Heavily damaged antennas (ripped out, sheared off, wire exposed and fraying etc.) should be replaced to ensure effective communication between the sensor and the cabin mounted display unit.

This procedure may be followed without removing the sensor from the crane if it is safe to do so. If removed, an angle sensor must be re-calibrated during reinstallation for correct angle display

(see the angle sensor installation section of the user’s manual).

NOTE

THE INTERIOR OF THE SENSOR

MUST BE PROTECTED FROM DUST, gRIME

AND WATER AT ALL TIMES.

12. Verify that the sensor functions properly.

5.3 Load Cells

WARNING

HEAVY SHOCK MAY AFFECT LOAD

INDICATION ACCURACY. INSPECT THE

LOAD CELL REgULARLY FOR CLEARLY

VISIBLE DENTS OR SCRATCHES. TEST THE

LOAD INDICATION IF COLLISION DAMAgE

IS VISIBLE.

5.3a Reading Accuracy

Trimble flat bar load links are pre-calibrated at the factory. No “zeroing” or other calibration is required on installation. Each link is heat treated to age the steel and ensure stable readings for many years; the load cells are individually temperature compensated to guarantee accuracy. Trimble flat bar load links are calibrated to indicate between 100% and 104% of their Working Load Limit (WLL).

GS222-05 SYSTEM & GS SERIES SENSORS

Trimble load pins, line riding tensiometers and compression cells must be calibrated at installation and every time thereafter the installation, the load sensor or the transmitter is changed.

SAE J 159 4.2.1 recommends load indicating devices should show not less than 100% of the actual load and not more than 110% of the actual load.

5.3b Load Testing

Trimble recommends testing the load cell every year for accuracy. The simplest way of testing a load cell is to lift at least two known weights. A test weight should be known with an accuracy of ±1%.

If the load cell is installed at the boom tip dead end, all additional equipment such as blocks, slings, sensors, etc. should also be known to an accuracy of ±1%.

Determine the accuracy of the tested system with the following formula:

Indicated Load

Actual Load

X 100 = % of Load

(Reference: SAE-J-159 7.3)

The test loads must be significantly relative to the load cell capacity. The minimum test weight is about 20% of the working load limit; a good test weight is greater than 50% of the WLL. For example, a 30,000 lb load cell on four parts of line has a WLL of 120,000 lb; the minimum test load in this case would be 24,000 lb, a good test load would be 60,000 lb or more.

5.3c Care

Battery: Lithium batteries older than 18 months old (alkaline batteries over 6 months old) should be changed at the first available planned inspection even if there is not yet a low battery warning. This will avoid costly delays in the field.

Corrosion: Verify that no corrosion is visible on the battery holder inside the load cell transmitter. If some trace of corrosion is visible, rub it off gently and put a small amount of dielectric grease* on each battery holder post to protect the contacts.

* Dow Corning dielectric grease No. 4

CHAPTER 5: MAINTENANCE 18

GS222-05 SYSTEM & GS SERIES SENSORS

Mechanical Stresses: Verify the load cell sides for dents or heavy scratches. The side of the load cell under the transmitter box is the most sensitive region. Engraving a number in this area will affect load cell accuracy and reliability. If the transmitter box has been hit and the box does not fit perfectly to the underlying link, please call Trimble Lifting

Solutions to have it repaired. Engraving on the transmitter box sides will not affect reading.

Seal: If the transmitter box has been removed it must be correctly resealed with RTV non-corrosive silicone or with the gasket kit and sealing screws.

Antenna: Small scratches on the antenna will not affect radio communications. A heavy bending of the antenna or bare sections on the wire may reduce the radio efficiency.

Hex Bolts: The hex head bolts on the transmitter box are there to protect the antenna and to hold the transmitter box on the load cell link. If one or both hex nuts are scratched, it will not affect the load cell readings or operation. If the bolt head is bent or sheared verify that the transmitter box fits tightly to the load cell link before contacting Trimble Lifting

Solutions for replacement bolts.
