The Skip-Line SC-12

Road Marking Vehicle Control System

The SC-12 Control System is the most advanced skip timer on the market. The SC-12 provides advanced striping and truck control capabilities by creating a single, integrated electronic system for nearly the entire striping truck. Operators can control hydraulic and pneumatic pressures, temperature control, application rates, lights, cameras, linear actuators, and more. The system has powerful diagnostic features that enhance operators’ in-the-field awareness and troubleshooting capability.

Your Vehicles Are Unique

Glass Cockpit Interface

Promote Safer operations with a Skip-Line™ Glass Cockpit near the vehicle driver. Monitor real-time application rates and simplify pattern configuration with a Glass Cockpit near the rear operator stations.

BUS-012 Network Hub

Provide clean communications and LED diagnostics. Conveniently place hubs near SC-12 Control System devices to reduce wiring.

Lights & Cameras

Move and focus cameras, turn work lights on and off, and engage linear actuators.

Temperatures & Pressures

Control material temperatures and hydraulic/pneumatic pressures.

Point-of-Load Driver CDRV Boxes

These can be mounted in a sealed enclosure on or near the carriage to reduce wiring or in the console in the operators area. Output indicators help with installation and diagnostics. LED lights indicate activated channels.

Carriage Control

Take command of the carriage with gun raisers and advanced carriage movement capability.

SC-12 Master (switchbox)

An SC-12 Master provides operation stations with system control. Engage road marking with rugged toggle switches. Change pattern configuration and more using a simple navigation menu.

Core Skipper

The Core Skipper calculates and implements the striping pattern as dictated by the operator. It ensures the most accurate striping at any speed. Usually mounted in the console in the operator’s area. Speed and pump sensors are connected here.

Full Color Display

VIEW THE MOST RELEVANT STRIPING INFORMATION WITH A GLANCE

PATTERN PREVIEW

View a pattern before it’s applied for a confident, error-free setup.

APPLICATION RATES

Monitor material application rates right on the main screen.

STATUS INDICATORS

View important messages and system statuses without entering submenus.

FEATURING:

INTUITIVE SETUP

Modify patterns, gun setup, time & distance delays, and more with a few touches. Road marking has never been more intuitive -making it easier than ever to train new crew members.

CALIBRATION ASSISTANCE

Reduce calibration time and error with guided calibration processes. You’ll find assistance with distance, pump, and delays calibrations on the SC-12 Control System.

FEATURING:

MAIN SCREEN

The main screen displays key operating information in a manner that is quickly understood with a brief look so operators can focus more on the striping operation.

In addition to instant or average application rates, the main screen clearly displays vehicle speed, active striping features, and an invaluable pattern preview. Adjust cycle settings and bead registration from the main screen as well.

QUICK SETUP

The quick setup menu contains configuration options that are most commonly changed on the fly. With a click of a joystick or a push of a button, an operator can access these principal settings.

FEATURING:

DYNAMIC COUNTER CHANNELS

Track simple metrics such as distances and paint usage with built-in counter channels. Upgrade to Advanced Counter Channels for metrics by pattern for jobs that pay by pattern distances.

DIAGNOSTICS

The SC-12 Control System was designed with diagnostics in mind. Reduce troubleshooting and pinpoint the issue with tools like menu alerts, switch test diagnostics, and individual output LEDs on every output box.
