In particular, IKUSI will showcase the new modular software, version 3.1, of the TM70 product range. This new version is able to support multiple hardware interfaces, since its electronic card allows the input of analog and digital signals for processing and transfer of information to the transmitter in order to be displayed on the LCDs on the push button devices type I and II, and the desktop models, LCD70.
Each TM70 receiver will be able to support, therefore, up to 2 INCAN cards and, in addition, a maximum of:
– 44 digital inputs (one IN4D connected directly to the receiver’s logic control)
– 11 analog inputs 0-10v (one IN0-10V connected directly to the receiver’s logic control)
– 11 pulse inputs 0-450 (one IN0-450P connected directly to the receiver’s logic control)
– Any combination of different types of micro-modules, up to a maximum of 11 (10 in 2 INCAN expansion slots in an upper tray, and one in the logic control of the LR72 receiver.
The new 3.1 version of the TM70 products also allows analog functions with PWM current outputs – electronic card A2ICAN – with two independent output channels from each module and voltage outputs – 2VCAN card – with two independent output channels from each module. In each TM70 receiver, with the LR72 card, up to 4 similar interface modules, or a combination of models (up to 8 analog outputs maximum) can be installed.
On top of these qualities, the new version offers a tele-adjusting function for the analog outputs A2VCAN and A2ICAN, which permits the adjustment to personalized parameters for these analog outputs via radio, using the standard display LCD70. In case the unit does not have the standard display, an adapter for the LCD70 can be used for the tele-adjusting function.
All these new benefits are a value added to the traditional advantages of the TM70 range. As well, it is now smaller, which provides greater comfort for the user. Also, it has a minimum of 13 relays, which translates into more functions and more contacts so that the machine has a greater number of movements. The push button TM70 units have a double click function to help improve the security and the control of the crane continues. In the larger unit, there has been additional care and ergonomic improvement, as is now equipped with lateral handles. The push button and the large-body units have a display indicating the load weight of the crane and other controlling data of the machine.
As far as construction applications of tower cranes, the installed software will select the first available transmission channel as soon as power is supplied to the unit, in case the normal work channel is being used.
Together with these advantages, the push button units IKUSI TM70 are the only ones which have a removable unique memory card (EEPRON). Thanks to this, the down time of the crane is reduced and its service and replacement is simpler and more flexible.
