Position Sensor (Lift Linkage) - Calibrate

SMCS - 5736-524-LQ ; 7601-524-PSN

S/N - AZX1-UP

Calibration of the lift linkage position sensor must be performed after any of the following events
occur:

• Initial commission of the machine

• Replacement of a lift linkage position sensor

• The sensor mount, the lift cylinder, or the lift linkage are disturbed.

• New implement software is installed.

• Replacement of the implement electronic control module (ECM)

Note: The messages that appear on the diagnostic message screen may differ from the messages that
are listed in this procedure.

Reference: For more information on messages that appear on the diagnostic message screen, refer to
the "Calibration Messages" section of Testing and Adjusting, "Glossary of Terms" in this manual.

1. Park the machine on a smooth, level surface. Also, the area must be clear so that the bucket can
be fully raised and fully lowered. The machine must be clear of all machines and personnel.

2. Position the bucket on the ground.

3. Engage the parking brake.

4. Run the engine at low idle.

5. If the machine is equipped with ride control, move the ride control switch to the OFF position.

6. Press the "OK" key on keypad (1) repeatedly in order to clear any error messages that are
flashing on the display. Press the "OK" key on keypad (1) repeatedly until the hour meter
appears on diagnostic message screen (2) .

7. On the keypad, enter "SERV (7378)" and then press the "OK" key. Press the ">" key until
"LIFT LINK SNSR - CAL" is displayed on the bottom line of the diagnostic message screen.

 8. The "LFT LINK SNSR - CAL" message will be displayed on the diagnostic message screen
(2). Press "OK" in order to start the calibration. All the instructions for the calibration will be
displayed on the screen.

11. If the screen displays "RESULTS OK", proceed to the next step. If the calibration has failed,
proceed to Step 17.

"LOWER BOOM FULLY"
" THEN PRESS [OK]"

14. Ensure that the lift cylinders are at the end of travel at the LOWER position. Then press the
"OK" key.

15. If the screen displays "RESULTS OK", proceed to Step 19. If the calibration has failed, proceed
to Step 18.

"RESULTS OK"

16. If the calibration passes, the screen displays "CALIBRATION COMPLETED OK". Proceed to
Step 19.

17. If the calibration has failed, the screen displays "CALIBRATION FAILED". Press the "OK"
key for the reason of the failure.

Table 11
"CALIBRATION FAILED"
"PRESS [OK] FOR REASON"

a. If the screen displays "LIFT LINKAGE SNSR ERR", the problem is with the sensor
circuit. The lift linkage position sensor has one of the following conditions. no signal,
wrong frequency, out of calibration and wiring problem. The problem must be repaired
before the calibration can be completed. The display will advance. Then, press the "OK"
key in order to acknowledge the error.

b. When the display shows "SENSOR ABOVE RANGE", the calibration indicates that the
percent of duty cycle is above the specification. The lift linkage may not be moved to the
correct range. The display will advance. Then, press the "OK" key in order to
acknowledge the error.

c. When the display shows "SENSOR BELOW RANGE", the calibration indicates that the
percent of duty cycle is below the specification. The lift linkage may not be moved to the
correct range. The display will advance. Then, press the "OK" key in order to
acknowledge the error.

18. If the calibration has failed, the screen will display "CALIBRATION FAILED". Press the "OK"
key for the reason of the failure.

a. If the screen displays "LIFT LINKAGE SNSR ERR", the problem is with the sensor
circuit. The lift linkage position sensor has one of the following conditions. no signal,
wrong frequency, out of calibration and wiring problem. The problem must be repaired
before the calibration can be completed. The display will advance. Then, press the "OK"
key in order to acknowledge the error.

b. When the display shows "SENSOR ABOVE RANGE", the calibration indicates that the
percent of duty cycle is above the specification. The tilt linkage may not be moved to the
 correct range. The display will advance. Then, press the "OK" key in order to
acknowledge the error.
