Angle Sensors for the Boom or Jib
WARNING! Keep the angle sensor away from the boom and any connecting metal
structures when welding the metal lugs to the boom. Proximity to welding may cause
permanent damage to the angle sensor and prevent accurate angle indication.
Mounting Procedure
The GS010 series angle sensors can be turned on by starting up the GS550 display to which they
are programmed. The angle sensor can then assist in levelling itself with the red and green LED.
