Getting Started

Assigned Personnel

The customer will hold a list of authorized, certified riggers for the installation and handling of the device. Such riggers shall have been trained in the device’s use and shall have read and reviewed this manual.

Unpacking

To avoid personal injury, always use two persons to lift and carry this device, as shown in the image below

Follow the checklist below, and if any nonconformity occurs, please report it to Versatile.

  1. Inspect the received packages for external shipping damage
  2. Verify that the printed record of the final performance is included.
  3. Carefully remove the box’s top cover and check for internal shipping damage.
  4. Inspect the device’s exterior to ensure all components are in good shape and adequately seated.
  5. Check the connectors of the various internal wiring harnesses to ensure they are firmly and properly seated. (See reference #3: Connectors and Wiring).

Initial Setup

Battery Setup

The three device batteries provided may only have a 25% charge and could be operated immediately. At the outset, the battery lifespan will be shorter than expected. Versatile recommends charging the spare battery immediately, with the best practice to charge all three batteries thoroughly before device usage.

The connectors are military-graded and are adjustable with a notch-to-notch fit. Carefully connect the charger connector with the battery connector.

Installing Batteries

Step #1 - Remove four (4) Star Grips and open battery covers 1 & 2

Step #2 - Verify batteries are not depleted by pushing the indicator button. Each fully charged battery lasts up to five days. Combined the two batteries provide up to 10 days of run time

Step #3 - Connect Battery 1 and Battery 2. There is a battery connection cable for each battery.

Step #4 - Close each battery lid and fasten the four (4) star grips until secure.

On-Hook Installation

To avoid personal injury, always use two persons to install the device on the crane hook.

Load Cell Calibration

After placing the device assembly on the hook, Versatile suggests picking a load with a known weight and recording the time of pick. Communicate this load weight and pick time to the Versatile support team at support@versatile.ai.

Post-Implementation

Battery Care

Once the battery is replaced successfully, a message will be sent to notify the designated person of the successful battery replacement. Battery replacement can be performed while the device is rigged on the hook or after the device is unrigged from the hook.

Routine Inspections

The customer shall immediately remove the device and all accessories from service as a result of any damage or defects identified as part of frequent, periodic, or additional inspections and notify Versatile accordingly.

Troubleshooting Instructions

Software Troubleshooting

In general, all software troubleshooting will be done remotely by Versatile. Some troubleshooting activities may require field assistance from authorized personnel.
