General
This section has the description and repair procedures for the Load Moment Indicator (LMI) system.
Description
The MIDMAC-RS13 is a complete ReachStacker
load moment indicator system. It has an intelligent
software for self-learning calibration, automatic tare
weight selection, and self diagnostics for ease of
troubleshooting. The modular design is the heart of
the LMI to allow economical expansion of the sys-
tem. All lift trucks are equipped with this basic LMI
system which consist of Main/LMI controller, Cable
Reel, and four pressure transducers. As option a
SLIM display or VIEW display can be installed in-
side the operator cab. When a lift truck is equipped
with a stabilizer function, additional components
are added to the basic LMI system. These additional
components are a slave unit, four pressure transduc-
ers, and two proximity switches. Also, an additional
stabilizer manifold and 2 stabilizer cylinders are
included to the hydraulic system. Standard also a
VIEW display is installed inside the operator cab to
activate the stabilizer system. The system compo-
nents are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2.
Each LMI system is factory programmed to match
the specific truck to which it is attached.
The system continually monitors output from the
four pressure transducers on the derricking cylinders
and the position of the load that will be performed by
the cable reel functions. It compares this informa-
tion with the truck capacity charts, which are stored
in the controller of the LMI System.
Description
The system also monitors the rear position of the cab.
The stabilizer system additional continually moni-
tors the output from the three pressure transducers
for the stabilizer cylinders, the position of the stabi-
lizer cylinders, and the steering pressure. See Fig-
ure 2.
If an overload condition is recognized, the operator
is warned with an audible and visual alarm and the
hydraulic functions that would add to the overload
condition is disabled. The hydraulic functions that
correct the overload condition will remain enabled.
The lifted load is continuously compared with the
maximum allowable load obtained from the truck ca-
pacity charts, and consequently three possible situa-
tions can occur as follows:
• Green light is ON, no acoustic signal is produced.
The lifted load is lower than 90% of the maximum
load.
• Green and amber light is ON, no acoustic signal is
produced. This is the warning situation. The lifted
load is more than 90% and less than 100% of the
maximum load.
• Green, amber, and red light is ON and buzzer
sounds. The lifted load exceeds the allowable load
so the maneuvers shut down function is activated.
In alarm situation, only boom retract is allowed.

There are also other situations when the indicator
lights are active. The Operating Manual contains
the indicator light situations that can be corrected
by the operator. Table 1 contains the indicator light
situations caused by a sensor failure. Replace the
sensor to solve the problem.
WARNING
Use caution when using the override function.
Using the incorrect function can cause damage
to the lift truck and can cause personal injury.
There is a hydraulic Shut-OFF override system avail-
able on the lift truck. By using this override system
the Shut OFF function will be bypassed, and all hy-
draulic functions are operational again.
Use override push button on the container handler
control box for "boom up" and "boom extended" to
override the system. Use emergency lowering button
on the instrument panel for "boom down" and "boom
retracted" to override the system.

MAIN/LMI CONTROLLER
The Main/LMI controller (see Figure 3) is the heart
of the system. This Main/LMI controller is con-
nected with the engine, transmission, slave unit (if
equipped), and the following sensors of the lift truck,
to prevent overload:
• Presssure transducers for the derricking cylinders.
(on the load holding valves).
• Cable Reel (on the boom).
NOTE: The Main/LMI controller for lift trucks with
stabilizer function and lift trucks without stabilizer
functions are different and therefore not inter-
changeable.
The Main/LMI controller is connected with a single
connector. See Figure 4 and Table 2 for the Input/
Output configuration.

SLAVE UNIT
The slave unit (see Figure 5) is the heart of the sta-
bilizer system. This slave unit is connected with the
Main/LMI controller and the following sensors of the
lift truck:
• Pressure transducers for the stabilizer cylinders
(on the stabilizer manifold)
• Pressure transducer for the steering system (on the
main manifold)
• Proximity switches (retracted position of the stabi-
lizer cylinders)

The slave unit is connected with a dual connector.

1. DUAL CONNECTOR
See Figure 6 and Table 3 for the Input/Output con-
figuration. Figure 5. Slave Unit
The slave unit activates the valves of the stabilizer
manifold and activates the speed limitation of the lift
truck by sending a signal to the transmission when
the load radius is within 1.3 m (51 in.). The trans-
mission will activate the speed limitation.

CABLE REEL (BOOM LENGTH AND
ANGLE TRANSDUCER)
WARNING
The replacement of the length transducer and
angle transducer must be done by qualified
personnel only.
The cable reel (see Figure 10) is assembled at the
back side of the outer boom. The internal length
transducer consists of a spring loaded cable reel on
which the length detection cable is wound. The other
side of the cable is connected to the inner boom. Dur-
ing extending the boom a potentiometer length sens-
ing device is measuring the boom length. The inter-
nal angle transducer is measuring the absolute angle
of the boom through an accelerometer angle sensing
device. These signals are essential in computing the
boom geometry.

PRESSURE TRANSDUCERS
NOTE: The pressure transducers (see Figure 11) are
exchangeable. When a fault code occurs, it is pos-
sible to swap the pressure transducers and check if
the fault code changes. If the fault code changes,
the pressure transducer must be replaced. When the
fault code remains, the problem must be found some-
where else.

GENERAL
NOTE: These instructions must be followed com-
pletely or the system may have to be calibrated by a
HYSTER COMPANY technician.
NOTE: Replace and adjust procedures must be fol-
lowed before attempting to replace a component or
make an adjustment. If a component replacement is
necessary, order the component from your HYSTER
COMPANY authorized dealer before removing the
component. Include truck model and serial number
when ordering to ensure proper operation over the
range of the original system installation.
Replace and Adjust
Pressure Transducers Derricking
Cylinders
The pressure transducers measure the pressure on
the derricking cylinders. Two sensors are required
for each derricking cylinder for measuring the pres-
sure and they must be installed on the two derricking
cylinder chambers. From these values the weight is
calculated.
These sensing devices measure the pressure by an el-
ement, which transforms the measured pressure into
a direct voltage proportional to the pressure.
Any possible replacement of the pressure transducer
is very easy because of their compatibility.
Pressure Transducers Stabilizer
The pressure transducers measure the pressure on
the stabilizer cylinders. The three transducers are
required for both stabilizer cylinders to measure the
differential pressure and end pressure of each stabi-
lizer.
Pressure Transducer Steering System
The pressure transducer measures the pressure of
the steering function and warns when the steering is
activated and when the stabilizer cylinders are still
extended. On the VIEW display unit the steering
wheel symbol will be RED and a buzzer will sound
and alarm code 60 will be shown. The steering func-
tion will still be available.
This section provides step-by-step procedures to re-
place the components of the system and to perform
the necessary adjustments on these components.
