1.1 Introduction

For demonstration and training purposes, Teledyne RESON has implemented her

dredge monitoring system to a LEGO Excavator.

The behavior of the excavator is visualized in Teledyne PDS and gives the user a real

life experience of the Teledyne PDS Excavator application.

To measure the boom, stick and bucket position are potentiometers added to the

LEGO crane.

This manual describes the precautions to take to use the LEGO Excavator for the

Teledyne PDS Excavator application.

See the Teledyne PDS Excavator User manual for more information about the

Teledyne PDS Excavator application.
