18. Connect the straight black cable from the shaft encoder to the socket marked
“ENCODER”. It might be necessary to organise this cable to prevent it dragging along
the floor.
Adding the controller
19. Hold the controller and align the computer handle runners with the machined brackets
on the back plate of the controller.
20. Slide the controller down the runners.
21. Fasten the controller in place by means of the two plastic headed bolts on the computer
handle mount.
22. Place the two battery packs in the black battery bag attached to the trolley. It is
assumed that these have been charged.
23. Take the black, curly power cable and connect it to one of the batteries.
24. Connect the other end of the power cable to the smaller of the two circular sockets on
the side panel of the controller.
25. Take the grey data cable and connect the female end to the central circular socket on
the Tx-Rx unit in the antenna. Make sure the cable is threaded under the clevis and not
over the top, as this will place unnecessary strain on the connector.
26. Wrap the data cable loosely around the central shaft of the trolley and plug the male
end into the HEAD CONNECTOR socket on the controller.
27. If necessary, fix the visor onto the display bezel.
28. The radar is now ready for proximity sensor calibration and use.
The Rough Ground Option
The following instructions describe the additional steps required to assemble the trolley
with the Rough Ground Option.
1. Follow the above instructions as far as step 11, in the Standard Trolley Option.
2. Place the four-wheel Rough Ground Option on the ground with the two brackets
pointing away from you.
3. Place the 500 MHz antenna inside the frame with the connectors towards you.
4. Take the assembled trolley and line it up with the Rough Ground Option antenna
assembly. The clevis should be aligned with the Rough Ground Option brackets.
5. Remove the PIP pins from the clevis and slot the Rough Ground Option brackets into
the grooves in the clevis feet.
6. Insert the PIP pins to lock on the Rough Ground Option.
7. Connect the function handle curly cable to the radar head socket marked “REMOTE”.
8. Connect the straight black cable from the shaft encoder to the socket marked
“ENCODER”. It might be necessary to organise this cable to prevent it dragging along
the floor.
9. Now follow steps 19 onwards, of the Standard Trolley Option, to complete assembly.
