Gen3 - Attachments - Attachment Automatic Recognition

Gen3 - Attachments - Attachment Automatic Recognition

When the Gen-3 system is configured for automatic tool selection, the system will read the identification tag on the attachment and automatically change the system to the matching attachment. If the attachment has multiple configurations (e.g. multiple knuckle positions) the attachment selection menu will be shown to select the correct configuration. To change the selected configuration, access the attachment selection menu.

When using automatic tool selection the attachment window may show the following messages:
  •  No Attachment – There is currently no attachment on the telehandler or the system can't find the identification tag.
  •  Attachment Not Calibrated – The Gen-3 system has recognized an attachment but the system has not yet been calibrated for the attachment.
  •  Unknown Attachment – The Gen-3 system has read an identification tag that is not in the system. When any of the above messages are shown, no visual rating chart is shown on the screen and the system is de-rated to 80% of the standard fork rating charts. 
If the current attachment has multiple configurations the attachment selection menu will be shown to select the configuration when the system starts.
If the machine has multiple attachments without identification tags, the attachment selection menu will be shown if an attachment can't be identified.
