Morsonic-II™

The COMMANDER™ Morsonic-II™ Horizontal Crane Detection System for collision avoidance is designed for stand alone individual operation in a Simplex mode (retro-reflective) or be set to communicate with other Morsonic-II™ systems in a half duplex (handshake) mode. The Morsonic-II™ system is supplied as an easy to install product comprising a purpose designed and constructed sheet steel CIU™ (Central Interface Unit) with fitted ports and houses a single high quality programmable microprocessor controlled printed circuit ‘mother’ board (PCB) with power supplies, MLC and 3 interface zone relays. A remote mount ‘plug in’ TxRxE™ transceiver device enables communication with partner Morsonic-II™ system(s) or structure when in retro-reflective mode. This system version will operate in two directions by adding a plug-in ‘daughter’ PCB and a second TxRxE™ transceiver device thus to detect and control both forward and reverse directions and speed zones, importantly the Morsonic-II™ system is compatible with the previous Morsonic™ system. This system configuration is more cost effective and simplistic method of expansion and future changes to client user working practice. A BatBak™ (battery back up unit) will provide standby power (iven period) for both directions of communication. The Morsonic-II™ system is programmed during installation using the CDS™ programmer unit which connects to the mother and daughter PCB. The input settings are stored in memory, this prevents any tampering by unauthorised persons after installation set up.
