Optional Overload Sensing System
The hoist can be equipped with an overload sensing
system, OSD 5. The system indicates when the car is fully
loaded and prevent operation in an overload condition.
Load cells are built into the pull rods connecting the
machinery to the car structure.
When the rated load is exceeded the control circuit will be
switched off to prevent the use of the hoist. At the same
time a red LED light is activated.
When an ALC is installed, fault code F4 will be displayed
in case of overload.
Note that software of at least version 3.50 must be used
for ALCII functionality.
If software is older than version 3.50 on ALCII, it must be
connected as relay control, and not as CAN.
Read more on page 10.
Indication light ”Overload” in car
Signals from the load cells are transferred
to the OSD 5 amplifier located in M-panel.

Setting of Payload and Alarm Limits
Payload 400 kg – 30000 kg
Overload (R1) 100 – 120 %
Full load (R2) 30 – 100 %
Underload (R3) Absolute values cannot be less than hysteresis (Hst)
Hysteresis (Hst) Can not be less than 75 kg and not more than 10 % of payload,
if the hysteresis is bigger than 80 kg
Load Calibration 50 – 120 %
Trailing cable compensation
Cable weight can be set between 0,9 - 4,8 kg/m
Maximum compensation is 250 kg for each load cell or 10 kg/m.

To set System parameters for OSD 5,
press the "Prog." and (+) "Zero" buttons.
Alarm limits can be set according to separate table.
Finish by pressing the "Prog." button or wait for 10
seconds.
Use the "Cal." button to enter the System Menu.
Use the "Cal." button to cycle through parameter(s) to be adjusted.
The example shows how to adjust the Lift capacity from 1000 kg to
2000 kg.
Example:
OSD 5 Calibration mode – System Set up
Use the “Cal.” button to enter the system menu.
Cycle through to select the parameter(s) to be adjusted,
using the "Cal." button.
Use the "Zero" button to re-set the displayed value to zero.
The first digit is increased by pressing the "Zero" button.
Use the "Load" button to select the second, third and
fourth digit respectively.
If required, adjust the second, third and fourth digit by
using the "Zero" button.
When the correct value has been set – cycle through to
the next parameter or return to the Weight display using
the "Cal." button.
Note: To ensure ALL changed parameters are stored,
the operator MUST tab through all the parameters
before returning to the Weight display.

To start Zero Calibration press the "Prog."
and "Zero" buttons.
Note: The lift/hoist must be empty
(no load).
Zero Calibration: Activate the Zero Calibration menu by pressing the
"Zero" button.
Press the “Cal.” button and the display counts down from 10 to 1. This
allows time for the operator to leave the car to ensure the lift/hoist car
is empty, without load.
On return to display function the "Zero" point is automatically
calibrated and stored.
If no changes are made in Menu mode, the overload sensing system
will automatically return to Weight mode after 10 seconds.
