Simulator Setup: Close-up of Shovel Controls
The simulator shovel controls mimic the real controls exactly. Shown here are the left- and right-hand joysticks and the three foot pedals.
The operator seat and controls are mounted on a base plate that may be mounted on the motion base with ease. One hardware setup, consisting of computers, projection screens and a motion base, may therefore be used for several different simulators. To change from one 5DT Surface Mining Simulator to another, one simply has to exchange the base plates and run the other software program.
