CableLength_3Pos Function Block
This function block gives the actual cable length using the switch selector and the length of the load using the switch selector. This block gives the possibility of setting three different length areas. This method is recommended for simple cranes with a maximum operating height of 40 m (131.2 ft) and the area between the 2 zones does not exceed 2 m (6.56 ft).
This function block requires metric input units.

UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION |
You must convert imperial units to metric units in meters before being used as inputs for this function (1 meter equals 3.28 feet). |
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. |
Example:
Low position = 10 m
Mid position = 8 m
High position = 6 m (less angle effect)
Best performance is reached with Low position = 10 m.
Maximum value for Low position (maximum cable length) is 40 m.
