Introduction
P/N 7010-1020 1-1
Introduction
Congratulations on your new X-22 System. You are now ready for
quicker, safer and more accurate work with your new workmate, X-
22.
This manual contains descriptions of the user interface and ideas for
working with the X-22 System. But don’t let this limit your use of X-
22. X-22 can almost certainly be used in ways we have not thought of
or described in this manual.
When on site, you are the expert – all we have done is offer you the
best workmate an excavator driver could wish for.
Enjoy your work!
Operating Principle
The X-22 software was designed to give you all necessary
information for the current job, just by glancing at the screen. Some
of the information, such as the height alarm, is also provided by X-22
in the form of sound signals.
To give you this information X-22 needs your help. To get started,
you first have to tell X-22 what type of work or project you intend to
carry out. You then tell X-22 where this work is to be done by
referencing.
With this complete, the excavator is able to sit with its undercarriage
in one place while you dig and swing the superstructure to your
heart's content. X-22 has complete control over where the machine is
in relation to the project.
If the undercarriage moves, for instance, because you have transferred
to a new location, you must tell X-22 this by referencing again. Once
referencing is complete, continue digging, and X-22 continues to
make the right measurements.
This is how daily work proceeds, and in this way X-22 helps you by
displaying the excavator in terms of work, height, length, slope and

Getting Acquainted
The following chapter describes the basic features of the X-22
excavator indicate system software.
The Digging Window
Figure 2-1. Digging Window
In the Digging Window, you will find all the information you need
for digging. You can also choose what you would like to see
displayed for optimal adaptation of the screen to you and your needs.
This chapter describes what you will see in the Digging Window and
how you can use it.

Target ball
On the left side of the Digging Window (Figure 2-1 on page 2-1) you
will see the Target Ball . This functions as a zoom. As the
bucket tip approaches the digging depth, the ball begins to move.
When the Target Ball is in the center of the circle, the bucket tip is
exactly at the desired digging depth. The two horizontal lines show
the working area.
Bucket Height
The top left-hand corner of the Digging Window (Figure 2-2)shows
the vertical distance from the measurement point on the bucket tip to
the entered digging depth.

Top View of Machine
At the top right-hand of the Digging Window (Figure 2-3) the
excavator and the project are viewed from above. This can be very
helpful for returning to a lengthways direction, for example in the
case of a trench.

Bucket View
In the top center of the Digging Window (Figure 2-4) the bucket is
displayed as viewed from the driver’s cab with the project below.
This window is particularly useful if you have a tilt bucket and tilt
sensor. It shows both the tilt angle on the bucket and the gradient/
slope of the project perpendicular (90 degrees) to the direction of the
boom. The bucket in the window can also change color to show that
the tilt angle on the bucket is too small, too large or correct for the
project.
Figure 2-4. Bucket View
Getting Acquainted
P/N 7010-1020 2-5
Length
You can also bring up the length from a given point to the bucket tip.
The length will be shown in yellow text under the bucket height.
Length is a separate referencing system which measures the
horizontal distance from the length referencing point to the bucket tip.
The distance is measured with respect to the circle center on the
undercarriage, so that the measured length does not alter as the
superstructure swings around.
This can be very useful when laying pipes for example. Press
Graphics and then choose Visible elements to turn on length
referencing.
Side View of Machine
Being able to see the excavator from the side during the project is
probably the most important function for you as driver, and is
therefore the main focus in the Digging Window.

Types of Work/Projects
X-22 allows you to select the following types of work:
Flat plane
•Single slope
•Dual slope
•Trench
• Profile
• Channel
• Embankment
Bucket-defined slope
The type of work is also called a project. The following sections
contain a description of the different projects and what settings need
to be entered.
X-22 User’s Manual

Flat Plane
Figure 2-6. Flat Plane Surface
A flat plane is a horizontal surface without gradient in any direction.
This means you only need to set two things in X-22:
The referencing method
The reference height (vertical distance from reference point to
digging depth)
NOTICE
In flat-plane digging the Digging Window does not
show the machine from above. On a flat plane the
vertical distance from the bucket tip to the digging
depth is the same whatever direction the
superstructure is facing.

P/N 7010-1020 2-11
Single Slope
Figure 2-7. Single Slope Surface
A single slope is a surface with a gradient in one defined direction. In
X-22 you must set the following to work on single slopes:
The referencing method
The reference height (vertical distance from reference point to
digging depth)
The gradient/slope
Direction of gradient/slope (if compass is turned on)
X-22 User’s Manual

Bucket-defined
Figure 2-13. Bucket-defined Single Slope Surface
Bucket-defined is used to indicate a single slope using the bucket tip.
This can be useful, for instance when forming a single slope up to the
foundations of a garage.
By referencing the bucket tip to two different points, X-22 will
calculate the gradient, direction of gradient and digging depth and
store these settings in the same way as for a single slope.
NOTICE
Do not rotate the superstructure until you have
referenced both points.

X-22 Setup
The following chapter describes how to setup the X-22 software.
Work/Project Settings
Many of the settings entered are the same for the different projects.
Selecting a new project in X-22 guides you through the setup
procedure for these settings using images and text.
This chapter also gives a detailed description of the most important
project settings.
Reference Height
The reference height is the vertical distance from the reference to the
digging depth. If you use a rotating laser for referencing, the laser
plane will be the reference and if you use the bucket tip for
referencing, the benchmark you place the bucket tip on will be the
reference.
You can use the reference height actively when working on a project.
Say you have set the reference height to 1.0 m and have finished
levelling out a site foundation. If your next task is to lay 10
centimeters of crushed stones on the foundation base, you can change
NOTICE
Notice that the reference height will be positive if
the digging height lies below the reference. A
reference height of 1.0 m (3.28 ft.) will thus result
in a digging depth of 1.0 m (3.28 ft.) below the
reference.
X-22 User’s Manual
3-2
the reference height to 0.9 m and use X-22 to check that the layer of
crushed stones has the correct height/thickness.
If you have been given the heights as elevations and have benchmarks
at a particular elevation, you can use X-22’s integral calculator to
work out the reference height.
Gradient/Slope in Lengthways
Direction
This is the gradient in the direction of the boom when Direction of
slope is entered.
Gradient/Slope to the Side
This applies only to Dual slope and is the gradient perpendicular (90
degrees) to the lengthways direction. For all other projects, the
gradient/slope to the side is zero.
Direction of Slope
This is the lengthways direction of the slope and is indicated by
pointing the boom in the lengthways direction of the slope. When you
press OK on the screen, X-22 stores this direction using the compass.
Referencing
X-22 always knows where the bucket tip is in relation to the rotation
center of the undercarriage, but in order to know where the rotation
center and thus the bucket tip is in relation to the project, X-22 must
be referenced. This is done with a benchmark or a rotating laser.
NOTICE
If the excavator is standing in loose material, the
machine may creep. X-22 will not notice this and
you should therefore re-reference if the machine is
creeping a great deal.
X-22 Setup
P/N 7010-1020 3-3
Once you have created a new project you are automatically invited to
reference when you go into the Digging Window. To perform a new
reference, press Reference in the Digging Window menu.
Referencing with Benchmark
A benchmark is a point with a known height in relation to the digging
depth of your current project.
Figure 3-1. Benchmark Reference
Place the bucket tip on the benchmark, and press OK.
NOTICE
If you have chosen Profile, Channel or
Embankment, the benchmark must also have a
known position in relation to the project. See the
screen images for the current project for further
details.
X-22 User’s Manual
3-4
Referencing with Laser
X-22 can also be referenced by detecting the laser ray from a rotating
laser with the laser receiver on the arm sensor.
During referencing, the screen will show where the laser ray has hit
the laser receiver.
Figure 3-2. Laser Reference
Press OK when the laser ray touches the center point.
NOTICE
The laser must be set with exactly the same
gradient/slope and direction as entered for the
project in X-22.
X-22 Setup
P/N 7010-1020 3-5
To find the laser plane as quickly as possible, you can first move the
arm relatively quickly through the area you expect to find the laser
ray in, while simultaneously watching the screen for a hit. When the
laser ray hits its target, go back to the correct height and adjust until
the laser ray touches the center.
Figure 3-3. Laser Reference
NOTICE
The advantage of a rotating laser is that it can cover
large areas with very high accuracy. You avoid
having to use many benchmarks and avoid the risk
of losing accuracy when moving the excavator.
Contact your dealer for offers of X-22 quality
lasers.
X-22 User’s Manual
3-6
Digging Slopes
All projects except Flat plane include surfaces with a slope.
The gradient/slope is entered in X-22 as a percentage (%), unless
Bucket-defined project is selected. If the gradient/slope has been
specified as a ratio (e.g. 1:8) or in degrees (e.g. 12.5) you can use X-
22’s integral calculator to translate these values into percentages.
Enter the direction of the slope by pointing the boom in the
lengthways direction of the slope.
This is illustrated by a single slope in Figure 3-4 on page 3-7. In this
image, the superstructure is in line with a single slope of 30%
gradient.
In Figure 3-5 on page 3-7, the superstructure has rotated through 90
degrees. As can be seen from the images, the gradient/slope in the
boom direction displayed under the machine changes from 30% to
0% (zero).
NOTICE
A slope has the gradient you entered, in the
lengthways direction entered. Using its compass, X-
22 constantly calculates the gradient in the boom
direction as the superstructure swings around. This
applies to all projects with a slope.

Moving the Undercarriage
When you have referenced and finished digging at the point where
the undercarriage is standing and need to move to a new location, you
will need to inform X-22. The following describes three ways you can
do this.
Option 1: New Reference
After moving the undercarriage to a new position you can re-
reference to a benchmark or laser plane.
Option 2: Retain the Same Height
If you have been digging down to the desired depth, you can continue
referencing this digging depth instead of the benchmark or laser plane
you started with. You can do this be altering the reference height in
the project to zero, selecting benchmark as the referencing method
and then referencing the bucket tip on the excavated area after
moving the machine.

P/N 7010-1020 3-9
Option 3: Swap Point Function
Figure 3-6. Swap Point Function
The swap point function is available for projects Flat plane, Single
slope and Dual slope. Before you move the undercarriage, place the
bucket tip on a point which can also be reached from the place you
will be moving the undercarriage to. Press “OK” on the screen. Move
the undercarriage and position the bucket tip on the same point. Press
“OK” on the screen again.

the left or right bucket tip as reference point.
Visible Elements
Here you can select which elements are to be shown in the Digging
Window.
Brightness of Digging Window
X-22 has a so-called transreflective screen to give you the best
possible picture when sunlight is directly on the screen. If it is dark
outside and you find the light from the screen too bright, you can dim
it here. Note that it takes approx. 10 seconds to open the Digging
Window while the screen is being dimmed.
Angular Difference for Bucket Warning
You can use this function if you have a tilting bucket and tilting
sensor. In the window showing the bucket from the driver’s cab, the
color of the bucket will change to show that the sideways angle of the
bucket blade is too large, too small or correct for the project. Here
you can enter how large an angular difference you will accept before
the bucket changes colour.
Working Area
The size of the working area determines when the target ball will start
to move and when the “Color warning” will be given. By increasing
the size of the working area you make the target ball less sensitive.
NOTICE
The bucket measurement point is used everywhere
in X-22 where you are asked to use the bucket tip.
X-22 Setup
P/N 7010-1020 3-11
Focus
Here you can choose whether you want the excavator undercarriage
to be stationary while you work or if you want the bucket to remain
stationary while the rest of the excavator and the project move
around.
Color Warning
Here you can select whether X-22 will give you a color warning when
the measurement point on the bucket tip is above or below the
indicated working area. You can choose between a color change on
the background to the screen, to the whole excavator or just the
bucket.
Size of Excavator
Here you can select how much space the excavator will take up on the
screen by increasing or reducing its size.
Position of Excavator
Here you can move the excavator around the screen.
Appearance of Excavator
Here you can select how the excavator will look from the side.
Change the appearance to a small machine if you have a small
excavator with the boom fixed in front of the driver's cab.
NOTICE
If X-22 is correctly installed, it will measure to an
accuracy of one centimeter on a normal excavator.
The size of the working area will not affect
measurement accuracy.
X-22 User’s Manual

Sound Settings
Sound signals can be a useful aid in addition to the screen display.
Here you can decide whether you want a sound signal when the
measurement point on the bucket tip is in or under the working area.
The height alarm also has a sound signal.
Height Alarm
The height alarm will warn you if the top of the arm or bucket is over
a certain height above the underside of the tracks. To turn the height
alarm on, you need to enter two extra excavator dimensions and
indicate the alarm height.
Using the Compass
In order to make full use of X-22 when excavating sloping projects, it
is essential that the compass gives an accurate measurement. It is
therefore important that the compass is well calibrated.
However, sometimes the compass may not give an accurate reading
even when the undercarriage is level. The greater the gradient/slope
in the project, the greater the error in bucket height will be if the
compass is measuring incorrectly.
NOTICE
Note that the height alarm is indicated in relation to
the underside of the excavator tracks and not in
relation to the project.
NOTICE
Note that the compass is at its most accurate when
the undercarriage is horizontal.
X-22 Setup
P/N 7010-1020 3-13
When excavating across large slopes you should therefore consider
turning off the compass and keeping track of the direction yourself.
You can turn off the compass by selecting Main menu Setup
Hardware Sensors and marking the PitchRollCompass sensor.
Select Details. Then select Compass on and press Change.
Speed of Sensors
Excavators may vibrate a great deal or very little, depending on rpm,
size, age, make etc. and this will affect the sensors’ angular
measurements. X-22 has been designed to ensure the sensors give the
optimum in stable, quick and accurate angular measurements in all
types of excavators.
It is therefore possible to alter the sensitivity and damping of the
sensors for the best possible match with your excavator. At the
factory the sensors are set with the aim of being stable when the
excavator is stationary, but reacting immediately when the machine
moves.
To make changes to this, select Main Menu Setup Hardware
Sensors, and press Sensitivity.
Sensitivity
Sensitivity indicates how strong the vibrations in the excavator must
be before X-22 interprets this as a movement of the machine.
By increasing the sensitivity, smaller vibrations in the machine may
be interpreted as a movement of the machine.
Reducing the sensitivity means that it will take larger vibrations to be
interpreted as a movement of the machine.
X-22 User’s Manual
3-14
Damping
Damping indicates how much the angular measurements will be
filtered when the excavator is stationary. Filtering makes the angular
measurements stable and accurate despite vibrations.
By increasing the damping, X-22 will react more slowly to small and
limited movements in the machine.
By reducing the damping, X-22 will react more quickly to small and
limited movements in the machine.
Damping is set high at the factory and can thus be probably adjusted
downwards.

The X-22 Display is not responding, what
should I do?
Most X-22 problems can be solved by turning the X-22 Display off
and on.
The sensors are not responding, what should I
do?
If you are having problems making contact with the sensors, proceed
as follows: Turn the X-22 Display off and put all the sensors in the
charger for a few minutes. The sensors will then be reset while they
are being charged. Take all the sensors out of the charger and turn the
X-22 Display back on.
A sensor is damaged, what should I do?
You can obtain a new sensor by contacting your dealer. Delete the
damaged sensor from the X-22 Display before entering the new one.
X-22 User’s Manual

How do I recalibrate a sensor?
If you have already calibrated the sensors and want to recalibrate one,
proceed as follows: Select Main menu Setup Hardware
Sensors and highlight the sensor you want to calibrate. Select
Details. Then select Calibrated and press Change.
The system is not measuring accurately, what
should I do?
If the system is not measuring accurately, a dimension or calibration
value is probably wrong. Select Verify from the menu in the
Digging Window, and press Troubleshooting. X-22 will then help
you identify the problem and rectify it. Follow the on-screen
instructions.
The compass is measuring incorrectly, what
should I do?
The compass in the PitchRollCompass sensor is magnetic and has to
be calibrated in order to measure correctly.
Therefore try recalibrating the compass to see if this helps. Select
Main Menu Setup Hardware Sensors
PitchRollCompass Details. Then select Calibrated, and press
Change.
If you want to check how well the compass is calibrated, you can
select Main MenuSetupHardwareSensors
PitchRollCompassVerify. When the machine is stationary and the
superstructure is rotated, the compass measurements should ideally
form a perfect circle with the center at the origin.
In certain special circumstances the magnetic compass can be
disrupted so much that it should not be used. In this situation the
heading on the screen can change even if the machine is at a complete
standstill.
If this happens, the compass should be turned off. Select Main menu
Setup Hardware Sensors and highlight the
PitchRollCompass sensor. Select “Details”. Then select “Compass
Troubleshooting
P/N 7010-1020 4-3
on” and press “Change”. All the software functions that use the
heading measurements from the compass will now disappear and you
will have to keep track of the heading yourself.
In situations where there are large fluctuations in the magnetic field
around the machine all the time, the compass calibration will not be
able to compensate for the disturbances. An example of such a
situation is if the machine is close to a railway line that is in use:
Trains are surrounded by a strong magnetic field, which will badly
disrupt the compass measurements whenever a train goes past. In this
case the heading displayed on the screen could change even if the
machine is at a complete standstill.
Working in the vicinity of high-voltage cables can also cause
problems for the magnetic compass.
The laser sensor is not working, what should I
do?
The laser sensor may have problems detecting the laser beam in
strong sunlight, particularly if the sun is shining straight into the
photoelectric cell. If this happens, the amount of sunlight hitting the
cell will have to be reduced by turning the sensor away from the sun,
for example.
If the laser sensor is exposed to strobe lighting, a rotating flashing
light or the like, the sensor may be misled into thinking that it has
detected the laser.
If the laser sensor does not respond to the laser beam at all, even at
close range, the photoelectric cell has probably been damaged. In this
case you will have to contact your dealer to have the sensor replaced.
