11.8 CraneSTAR system
11.8.1 Overview
Your truck crane is equipped with the CraneSTAR system.
The CraneSTAR system is used to transmit crane data via mobile phone or
satellite and thus offers various possibilities for remote diagnostics and for
localising the truck crane.
Transmission is primarily via mobile phone (GSM). If transmission via
mobile phone is disrupted, the device will automatically switch to transmis-

The CraneSTAR system works automatically, no controls must be operated.
This document just shows the position of the associated components and
gives tips on troubleshooting.
The CraneStar system will only be activated at the request of the crane oper-

Information on viewing the transmitted data in the Internet can be found in
the separate
CraneSTAR Operating instructions and at:
www.cranestar.net – here, you will find all of the information about activat-
