Abstract
A crane controller for a crane includes: a sliding position sensor for sensing a sliding position of a crane sliding arm, and a memory for storing entries for limit values for an operating parameter of the crane characteristic of the instantaneous crane load. Entries for maximum permissible limit values are stored in the memory for at least two sliding positions of the crane sliding arm. The crane controller also has an overload monitoring means, and a limit value for at least one operating parameter of the crane can be specified by the overload monitoring means of the crane controller. The limit value is specified by the overload monitoring means based on the stored entries according to the sliding position of the crane sliding arm. A limit value between the stored entries with respect to magnitude can be specified for a further sliding position between the stored sliding positions of the crane sliding arm.
