Introduction

Excavator Indicate System P/N: 1022461-01

Introduction

This manual discusses how to install and calibrate Topcon’s Indicate Excavator Systems utilizing the 

MC-X1 Controller.

The TS-i3 single and dual axis sensors used in the Topcon excavator systems measure the pitch and roll

angle of various machine elements. Each sensor accurately measures a gravity-referenced angle of the

body, boom, stick, and attachment, sending this angle data to a GX-55/GX-75 (GX Series) display to

provide precise grade. Each sensor is configured and calibrated for its specific location on the excavator.

The dual axis body sensor functionality is unique as it measures both pitch and roll (cross slope) of the

machine.

Indicate System Components

Tabl e 1 lists the hardware and software components of the indicate systems.

The MC-X1 System Architecture requires all of the sensors to be running on a

500kbps Baud Rate. Legacy sensors used in MC-R3, MC-i3, and MC-i4 systems

are not compatible with the MC-X1 excavator system. Ensure that the sensors

to be used in the MC-X1 system have the correct part number and label

denoting the 500kbps Baud Rate.

Introduction

Indicate System Components

Excavator Indicate System P/N: 1022461-01

The TS-i3 Tilt Sensors, the MC-X1 Controller, the GX Series display, and the LS-B10W Laser Receiver

make up the 2D indicate system. The LS-B10W adds a laser height reference, and is calibrated for its

location on the stick of the excavator. The 3D system (Figure 1) utilizes two GR-i3 GNSS Antenna and

a radio module for precise 3D control.

When installing components, use the Topcon supplied fuse or fused power

from the machine of the same rating.

System ground must be connected to the frame side of the ground

disconnect switch, not directly to the negative battery terminal.
