Abstract: The present invention relates to a crane (101). The crane (101) has a hoist (113), movable in at least one lateral direction (X, Y), for performing a lifting operation; a coupling attached to the hoist for connection to a load; and a height sensor for monitoring a height of the coupling. A controller (125) is provided for controlling lateral movement of the hoist (113). The controller (125) is configured to inhibit lateral movement of the hoist when a height sensor detects that the coupling is below a pre-defined operating height or that the coupling is outside one or more pre-defined operating height ranges, the controller is configured to inhibit operation of the hoist by restricting or stopping lateral movement of the hoist; or by implementing an incremental lateral movement of the hoist; or by restricting or stopping a hoist lifting operation. The invention also relates to a control system for a crane (101) and a related method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a control system for operating a crane (101). The control system includes a central control module (125) for controlling operation of the crane (101) and a control unit (121) for outputting control signals to the central control module in response to user inputs. At least one portable safety unit (149) having a wireless transmitter for communicating with the central control module (125). The at least one portable safety unit (149) is provided with a safety module which is connected to the wireless transmitter. The safety module can be operated to transmit an inhibit signal wirelessly to the central control module (125) to inhibit operation of the crane (101). The present invention also relates to a crane (101) and a method of operating a crane (101).
