Abstract: An operating device includes a crane controller for controlling actuators of the loading crane and for generating sensor data based on the sensor signals, and an input device spatially separated from the crane controller for inputting control commands for the crane controller. The crane controller has a first telecommunications device for exchanging data signals with the input device, and the data signals output by the crane controller include sensor data. The input device has a second telecommunications device for exchanging data signals including control commands with the first telecommunications device. The input device has a transmitter device for outputting data signals. A signaling device is spatially separated from the input device, and has a receiver device for receiving data signals output by the transmitter device and a display device for displaying audio data and/or image data. The signaling device signals the audio data and/or image data to a user.

Abstract: A lifting device has crane arm and a working device arranged on the crane arm and movable by the latter. The working device is arranged to be displaceable relative to the crane arm, and an actuating device for setting a predefined or predefinable target position of the working device relative to the crane arm or to a predefined or predefinable direction in space is provided. A sensor for detecting an actual position of the working device relative to the crane arm or to the direction in space is provided, the signals from which can be supplied to the actuating device. The actuating device moves the working device into the target position as a function of the signals from the sensor if the actual position is not equal to the target position.
