OM6011 10/11 VHMS - Section 60 Page 60-5 EXTERNAL DISPLAY LAMPS The external lamps display the payload as follows. When the machine is loaded in this manner, the external display lamps illuminate as shown in the table below. The green light signifies that additional loading is acceptable. The yellow light warns the operators that the load limit is approaching. The red light indicates an overload. If the red lamp illuminates, the machine is over- loaded. DO NOT haul a load with the red lamp on. Use the predicted load display to prevent over- loading. Refer to Predicted Load Display.
PREDICTED LOAD DISPLAY When the load changes as each bucket is loaded, the system estimates the total payload and flashes the appropriate lamp to prevent overloading. The predicted load display and actual payload dis- play are shown at the same time.

148 tons) Number Of Loads Indicator Lights Explanation 1st Bucket The actual load is 37 tons, so none of the lamps illuminate. The predicted load is 74 tons, so none of the lamps flash. 2nd Bucket The actual load is 74 tons, so none of the lamps illuminate. The predicted load is 111 tons, so the green lamp flashes. 3rd Bucket The actual load is 111 tons, so the green lamp illuminates. The predicted load is 148 tons, so the yellow lamp flashes. 4th Bucket The actual load is 148 tons, so the green and yellow lamps illuminate. The predicted load is 185 tons, so the red lamp flashes.
