The R2S-S Laser Receiver is an omnidirectional,
360-degree receiver that detects the position of
the laser reference plane and transmits these
signals to the Remote Interface Box. These
signals are processed to indicate the relative
position of the R2S-S Laser Receiver to the laser
reference plane.

The EM2E-24 Electric Mast is a telescoping
mount driven by an electric motor. The EM2E-24
Electric Mast electronically measures vertical
movement and sends the signals to the Remote
Interface Box for processing.
b. Capabilities.
(1)
The blade's elevation on one or both sides can be
controlled by using the Tracer Sonic Grade
Controller to trace an existing surface, a string
line, a curb and gutter, or a previous pass. The
R2S-S Laser Receiver with EM2E-24 Electric
Mast, in combination with the 1145-2 Laser
Transmitter, provides a constant grade reference
up to 1,000 ft (305 m) away from the 1145-2
Laser Transmitter.
The Tracer Sonic Grade Controller replaces
(2)
contact-type followers that often give inaccurate
or inconsistent results.
c.
Features.
The Blade Pro Motor Grader Control System's automatic blade control is achieved through the
(1)
Hydraulic Control Valve. The Hydraulic Control Valve provides electrical-to-hydraulic interface for
controlling the blade's elevation and cross-slope.
NOTE
Initial installation of these system components is to be conducted by Direct Support
personnel.
Installation kits for the Blade Pro Motor Grader Control System provides all the necessary cables,
(2)
hydraulic hoses, hydraulic fittings, mounting brackets, and fasteners to ensure proper installation
and operation.
