Replacement of Digital Points and Sensor Commissioning REPLACEMENT OF DIGITAL POINTS Tools needed Fines removal tools such as needle scaler, wire brush, and picks Small pry bar 1‐inch square drive and ratchet. For N3 points: 1‐1/2” or 38 mm socket, a thin wall (non‐impact) type socket is required. WARNING! When performing the work described in these instructions, always work safely and use proper safety equipment to help avoid injury.

Do not drive tools past the bottom of the cap. There is a triangular space on each side of the cap that can be used as pry locations. 4. There is a plastic plate below the fines cap. This plate can be left in place. The sensor and lithium battery lie below this plate. 5.
Replacement of Digital Points and Sensor Commissioning Two orientations of 1” square interface Important! Give the removed lock to your maintenance department so it can be returned to ESCO. (how are we handling disposal) [WARNING] Lithium Battery Explosion Hazard (move earlier and make graphical as able) The sensor contains a small lithium battery. Misusing a lithium battery can result in fire or explosion which can cause serious injury. To avoid this hazard: Do not expose a sensor to heat sources.
Replacement of Digital Points and Sensor Commissioning In situations where the head of the lock is significantly worn, the plastic plate can be removed to gain additional tool engagement. Caution must be used to not damage the sensor below the plate. A pick can be used to in the locations shown to remove the plate. If welding or other hot work needs to be conducted near the lock, the lock should be removed from the point or the sensor removed from the lock.
Replacement of Digital Points and Sensor Commissioning Installing a Digital Point 1. Check you are within the use by date and that sensor ID is present and ledgible. 2. Following your site’s approved standard procedure, install the new digital points (which have sensor in the locks) onto the shovel. For reference, see the ESCO NEMISYS Mining Tooth System Installation and Removal manual. 3.
Replacement of Digital Points and Sensor Commissioning 5. The point is now ready to be commissioned. Begin commissioning or note IDs and positions for later commissioning.
Replacement of Digital Points and Sensor Commissioning To Commission Point GET Detect Sensors Commissioning is the process of linking the signals from newly installed points and shrouds to the shovel’s in‐cab display (ICD) tablet. Prerequisites All ESCO GET Detect components have been installed according to the instructions provided with the installation kits and are communicating normally. The shovel’s ICD is powered on and has a sufficient charge to perform the commissioning.
Replacement of Digital Points and Sensor Commissioning 3. Tap the “Commission” widget. “Commission” widget. Widget indicator: Green = No pending upload to the ECM. Yellow = Sensor configuration has changed‐‐upload pending. Your bucket representations may not appear exactly as those thown in this instruction. The widget will expand to reveal nearby GET Detect sensors. It may take 5‐10 seconds to fully populate as it scans (by default, it looks for points first). By default, points are shown.
Replacement of Digital Points and Sensor Commissioning 4. Find the icons for the sensors that were just installed with the new points. Drag and drop these icons to the proper bucket points. Make sure that the sensor icon’s 5‐character ID matches the ID of the sensor installed on the bucket. To select a sensor icon: Long‐press it for one second. Once you hear a beep and it changes color, you will be able to move it around.
Replacement of Digital Points and Sensor Commissioning 5. Once you have finished commissioning sensors, tap the upload button. “Upload” button The commission widget will close and the confirmation message shown will appear for a few seconds. This means that your changes have uploaded to the shovel’s ESCO Control Module (ECM). If the confirmation message does not appear, the most likely reason is that the ECM is not powered on.
