Abstract
A controller for a drilling rig traveling block is disclosed utilizing an absolute position locator and a processor for employing various operating fixed and variable parameters for controlling the speed of travel of the traveling block. As approach limits are reached in either the ascending or descending mode, the position input enters the calculations so that the traveling block is effectively controlled at high speed while safely avoiding an upward or a downward collision. Operation, once the parameter are inputted, is independent of operator control except for override operation.
