Initializing Single 3D Excavator Orientation
Illustration 1 g01780528
When a single-3D system is first started, or when a single-3D machine is moved more than a very short distance, the orientation of the machine must be initialized. Until the machine orientation is initialized, guidance is not available and the following flashing warning message will be displayed.
Illustration 2 g01780529
To initialize the machine's orientation, without moving the tracks swing the machine's upper body in one direction. As the body begins to swing, a progress bar is displayed. Refer to Illustration 2.As the initialization progresses, the bar's fill is extended, and the fill color shades to green. The amount of rotation required to initialize the machine's orientation depends on the GPS or ATS accuracy settings. The more GPS or ATS accuracy required, the further you have to swing the cab.Note: The estimated the orientation of the machine is continually re-calculated, and as you swing the body while working the orientation estimate improves.If the progress bar disappears and the Rotate Machine message flashes, then the initialization has failed. If the initialization fails, repeat the initialization procedure.Benching a ATS Target
You must bench the target if the ATS instrument was set up with northing and easting values, but no elevation was specified.You may bench the target even if the ATS instrument's location was specified with an elevation value, in which case the benched elevation is used to calculate the target location, not the entered elevation of the ATS.The Height from field in the ATS dialog displays the origin of the ATS height. The contents of the Height from field are shown below. If the Height from field displays "No height", you must bench the ATS target before you can use the ATS system.
Table 1
Height From Field    Description    
Benching     The machine has been benched. Heights are in terms of the benchmark the machine was benched over.    
ATS     The machine has not been benched. Heights are in terms of ATS height. ATS setup has station elevation and instrument height entered.    
No height     The machine has not been benched.    To bench the target, complete the following steps:
Illustration 3 g01780527
From any guidance screen, press and hold down the "OK" key. The "Bench ATS" dialog appears:Note: Alternatively, to begin benching, select "Bench" from the "Setup Menu – Configuration" menu.
Position the focus point of the bucket on or beside the benchmark.
Enter the elevation of the benchmark into the "Bucket elevation" field.
Press either "Bench Left", "Bench Right", or "Bench Center" in order to begin benching.When benching finishes, a guidance screen appears.Load Or Create A Design
When you are creating a new slope design in the field using the 2-point method, and are defining points using the location of the bucket focus, if you move the machine, then you must
