Section 2 – Radio Controlled Safety 2-1. Warnings, Cautions and Notes. 2-2. Critical Installation Considerations. Through out this document WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE statements have been deliberately placed to highlight items critical to the protection of personnel and equipment. WARNING WARNING – A warning highlights an essential operating or maintenance procedure, practice, etc. which if not strictly observed, could result in injury or death of personnel, or long term physical hazards.
Section 2 – Radio Controlled Safety (Continued) Anyone being trained to operate a radio-controlled crane should possess as a minimum the following knowledge and skills before operating the crane: WARNING The operator should have knowledge of hazards peculiar to crane operation. THE DIRECT OUTPUTS OF THIS PRODUCT ARE NOT DESIGNED TO INTERFACE DIRECTLY TO TWO STATE SAFETY CRITICAL MAINTAINED FUNCTIONS, I.E., MAGNETS, VACUUM LIFTS, PUMPS, EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT, ETC.
Section 2 – Radio Controlled Safety (Continued) The operator should know cable and hook inspection procedures. centered over an area free of personnel and equipment. The operator should know procedures for testing hoist, trolley, and bridge brakes. Visually inspect the hook, load lines, trolley, and bridge as much as possible from the operator's station; in most instances, this will be the floor of the building. 2-6. Operating Area. Aisles between equipment, stock, etc.
Section 2 – Radio Controlled Safety (Continued) Never leave suspended loads unattended. In an emergency, if the crane is inoperative and a load suspended, notify the supervisor immediately, barricade and post signs on the floor beneath crane and load. positioned in the line of travel. The crane or hoist should be operated from a position either to the side or opposite from the direction of travel. When raising or lowering a load, proceed slowly and make certain the load is under control.
Section 2 – Radio Controlled Safety (Continued) For minor repairs warning signs should be placed on the floor beneath the crane or suspended from the crane. For major repairs, the floor area below the crane should be roped off. All tools and equipment should be moved onto the crane by the use of hand lines. The tools and equipment should be adequately secured to the hand lines.
Section 2 – Radio Controlled Safety (Continued) down immediately and the supervisor notified. The following is a list of some of the items that should be included in the report. (See the crane manufacturer for specifics and possible additional items): Mechanical parts loosened by vibration (loose rivets, covers, bolts, etc.). Condition of hoisting cable and hook block (broken strands, clipped sheave wheels, etc.). Condition of collector shoes or bars. Uneven riding (worn or damaged wheels).
Section 2 – Radio Controlled Safety (Continued) Do not attempt to charge a damaged battery. 2-13.2. Battery Charging. Charger units are not intended for outdoor use. Use only indoors. For those transmitters equipped with battery chargers, please familiarize all users with the instructions of the charger before attempting to use. Always unplug the charger when not in use. Use only Telemotive approved chargers for the appropriate battery pack.
Section 3 – General System Information 3-1. General System Information. The Telemotive Radio Control System (system) provides remote control of overhead cranes using radio signals. The system consists of a hand held portable battery operated transmitter unit and a fixed station receiver unit. A unique 16-bit code (Access Code) for each system is preset in every transmitter and receiver. The receiver considers any received signal, which does not match the receiver access code setting, invalid.

Section 4 – Operation (Continued) WARNING WARNING IN AN EMERGENCY HIT “E-STOP” TO STOP ALL CRANE MOVEMENT. WHEN EMERGENCY HAS CLEARED TURN THE TRANSMITTER OFF THEN ON AGAIN TO RESUME NORMAL OPERATION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH AND DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT. WHEN OPERATING THE CRANE FOLLOW LOCAL AND GOVERNMENTAL RULES ON THE USE OF HORNS AND ALARMS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH AND DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT. 4-4. Operation. 4-5.
Section 4 – Operation (Continued) • • sequence is important). The transmitter red LED ON/OFF indicator then stays ON (for five seconds) till the password is entered. Once the password is entered (see below) the transmitter red LED ON/OFF indicator flashes indicating the current Bank the operator is in while the transmitter is ON and not transmitting. One flash then a pause repeatedly indicates Bank 1, two quick flashes indicates Bank 2, three quick flashes and a pause indicates Bank 3 and so on.
Section 4 – Operation (Continued) transmitter is turned ON, after Bank Selection is made and the ON/OFF indicator will remain lit until the correct password sequence is entered with in five seconds. An incorrect password sequence or failure to enter the sequence in time shuts the unit OFF. The user is allowed to restart and try again an unlimited amount of times. The Bank Password is the same for all four Banks. WARNING DISABLING THE PASSWORD FUNCTION PUTS THE SYSTEM IN ACTIVE BANK SELECT.
Section 4 – Operation (Continued) NOTE For a battery carrier with two “AA” cells, replace the two “AA” cell batteries with new batteries, noting the polarity for “AA” cells marked on the holder. (Best life can be obtained if the two “AA” batteries used are new, a good quality alkaline type, both cells of the same type and from the same manufacturer). Accidentally putting the batteries in the wrong direction will not damage the unit. THERE IS NO NEED TO RUSH BATTERY REPLACEMENT.
