Abstract

The present invention relates to an angle-related method of monitoring crane safety during the setup procedure of a crane, wherein the crane has a sensor system and a crane control and the crane control receives one or more measured values from the sensor system during the setup procedure and compares the measured value or values received with at least one corresponding limit value and triggers a measure on an exceeding and/or falling below of the limit value or values.
