Reference Mode
Illustration 1 | g01854559 |
Reference mode is the default mode of operation and allows the operator to benchmark the system and then apply an offset to the reference elevation. When the system is in reference mode, the run time screen for the AccuGrade system will display the elevation offset value.
Cut/Fill Mode
Illustration 2 | g01880625 |
Cut/Fill mode allows the operator to check the grade of the surface. When the system is in cut/fill mode, the screen for the run time will display the elevation error. This error value indicates the amount that the blade is above or below the desired grade. When the operator is operating in the cut/fill mode, the operator can perform a benchmark of the system and enable automatic controls. However, the operator cannot apply an elevation offset.
