15 6 Plates Plate Position Content Key ID 0-1 (if present) Radio Remote Control serial number (S/N) Battery housing (if the ID internal tx memory is present) Radio Remote Control serial number (S/N), bar code and manufacturing year.
Symbol Meaning This symbol identifies the red LED [A] This symbol identifies the green LED [B] The meaning of signals provided by the LEDs identified with “C” are explained in the Data Feedback function section (see paragraph 8.14). The meaning of LEDs related to the Data Feedback function are decided and established by the Machine Manufacturer depending on the Machine's functions for which he wants to receive information.
7.2 17 Acoustic signals The Transmitting Unit has an acoustic signal device that activates when: - The battery is nearly flat. - The Transmitting Unit has been on for eight hours. - The Transmitting Unit does not work correctly. - During the Radio Remote Control start-up, the STOP pushbutton is pressed or damaged. - During the Radio Remote Control start-up, the SAFETY command is activated (see Technical Data Sheet).
Removing the mechanical key Do the following to remove the mechanical key: 1. Turn the mechanical key anticlockwise. 2. Pull the mechanical key to remove it from its receptacle. 8.1.2 Key ID 0-1 The Key ID 0-1 makes it possible to power the Transmitting Unit. It stores the Radio Remote Control's address. Therefore, the Key ID 0-1 can only be used in the Transmitting Unit of the Radio Remote Control to which it belongs.
8.3 19 STOP pushbutton When the STOP pushbutton is activated, the Machine stops and the Transmitting Unit switches off. To start the Radio Remote Control again and enable it to control the Machine after the STOP pushbutton has been pressed, you need to: - Make sure that the working and usage conditions are safe. - Pull or turn the STOP pushbutton in the arrow direction (shown on the button) to unlock it. - Start the Radio Remote Control following the procedure described in paragraph 8.9).
The pushbuttons [E] on the Transmitting Unit are used to interact with the display [D] and the LEDs for Data Feedback function [C]. Functions performed by the pushbuttons [E] are configurable and are decided by the Machine Manufacturer: the User must be properly trained in this respect. No operation or movement of the Machine shall be connected to the use of the pushbuttons [E]. 8.5 Command meaning Commands on the Unit are specified according to the Machine's operations and functions.
21 8.5.2 TEACH switch (during REMOTE SETUP) This switch is used to: - Set maximum and minimum values of proportional outputs (see "Part D" in the Instruction Manual). - Set values related to the rest position of proportional outputs (offset) (see "Part D" in the Instruction Manual). - Invert the movement direction of the joystick's axis (see the Installation Manual). Symbol Meaning This symbol identifies the TEACH+ command. This symbol identifies the TEACH- command. 8.5.
8.5.4 Engine on/off switch This switch is used to switch on and off a Machine's engine. Symbol Meaning This symbol indicates the power on command of a Machine's engine. This symbol indicates the switch off command of a Machine's engine. 8.6 Low Power function The Low Power function enables the transmission at a reduced power compared to the nominal power and reduces the Radio Remote Control working range (see paragraph "Technical Data" in the general part of the Instruction Manual).
8.7.1 23 Battery insertion To insert the battery, proceed as follows: 1. Push the battery towards the contacts of the Transmitting Unit. 2. Insert the battery in its housing. The battery slides easily into place and ensures that the positive (+) and negative (-) poles are correctly connected only if it is inserted with the plate facing its housing, so that the battery's contacts match the Transmitting Unit's contacts. 8.7.2 Battery removal To remove the battery, proceed as follows: 1.
8.9 Starting up the Radio Remote Control Starting up the Radio Remote Control means enabling it to send commands and operate the Machine. The Radio Remote Control start up is protected by a power keyswitch to prevent unauthorised use of the Machine. To activate the Radio Remote Control it is necessary to insert the power keyswitch as described in the following procedure. Perform the following procedure to start the Radio Remote Control: 1.
8.10 25 Command activation When the Radio Remote Control is started, it is possible to activate movements, functions and commands on the Machine by acting on the related joysticks, switches or pushbuttons, whose functions and symbols are decided by the Manufacturer and/or the Installer. To identify the relation between the actuators and the corresponding Machine movements, the Machine Manufacturer and/or the Installer shall provide relevant instructions and the User shall be properly trained. 8.
8.12.1 Low battery The Transmitting Unit indicates if the battery is not sufficiently charged (the red LED blinks and an acoustic signal sounds). The Transmitting Unit automatically switches off after 3.5 minutes after the onset of the signal. It is necessary to bring the Machine to a safe state and replace the battery with a charged one (see paragraph 8.7). 8.12.
8.14 27 Data Feedback Function The User receives information and/or signals concerning some specific situations and the movements of the controlled Machine by means of the Data Feedback function. The Data Feedback function acts through the LED array and/or the display. Any information shown and signalled on the display and/or through the LEDs for Data Feedback function can never be considered or used as a safety signal or for legal metrology.
8.15.1 Description The cable control connects the Transmitting Unit to the Receiving Unit through a cable that replaces the radio link. The cable shall be plugged in the suitable connectors, one on the Transmitting Unit and the other on the Receiving Unit (or placed where established by the Machine Manufacturer). When using the cable control, the working features (i.e. the meaning of actuators and the Data Feedback function) do not change. 8.15.
29 Follow this procedure to control the Machine with the cable control: 1. Power on the Receiving Unit respecting the voltage limits provided in the technical data (see "Part D" of the Manual). The POWER LED illuminates. 2. Make sure that the battery is inside the Transmitting Unit and leave it there even though the power supply comes from the Receiving Unit via the cable control.
8.16.1 Address storage Perform the following procedure with fully charged battery and power keyswitch inserted in the BACK-UP UNIT: 1. Press the STOP pushbutton. 2. Press the START pushbutton and hold it pressed until the green LED turns off. 3. Unlock the STOP pushbutton. It is now possible to start the Radio Remote Control and to control the Machine with the BACKUP UNIT Transmitting Unit.
9.2 31 User behaviour Besides the instructions contained in the General Part (Part A) of the Instruction Manual, when using the Transmitting Unit, the User must: - Observe and comply with all instructions and warnings provided by the Machine Manufacturer. - Observe and comply with all instructions and warnings provided by the Installer. - Observe and comply with all instructions and warnings provided by the Person responsible for the Machine commissioning or making the Machine available for work.
- Use the Transmitting Unit in such a way as to avoid contact with objects and/or People, fall and loss of control. - Use the transmitting unit with supports such as belts and the like, which are provided with the Radio Remote Control. - Not modify or tamper with the Transmitting Unit, its components and/or its commands; not modify the indications and/or meaning and/or abbreviations and/or symbols and/or original stickers on the Transmitting Unit's panel. 9.
33 Use The User must wear the Radio Remote Control with the belt as shown in the photo below, to avoid its fall, loss, loss of control, accidental contact and improper use. If the Transmitting Unit and the belt are used in a different way from the one described in the above mentioned figure, this constitutes improper use and may lead to damage to the Transmitting Unit, to the User, to people and/or property.
