Do not leave the load hanging or the Machine in dangerous conditions (even when charging the Unit or changing the battery). FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS BODILY INJURY OR DEATH AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. Voluntary switch off of the A8+ Transmitting Unit occurs in the following cases: -- when you press deeply and in sequence the START pushbutton and immediately afterwards the FUNCTION pushbutton, until the red LED illuminates; -- when you remove the power keyswitch; -- when battery is removed (see paragraph 8.5.2); -- when the STOP pushbutton is pressed. AUTEC - Air series LIUA8BEN0_eng-01 26 8.12 General operating instructions "Data Feedback" function The User receives information and/or signals concerning some particular situations and the movements of the controlled Machine by means of the "Data Feedback" function. The "Data Feedback" function works with LEDs: specific Machine conditions (e.g. load limits, limit switch) may be signalled by the illumination of the LEDs. The signalled conditions depend on the settings chosen by the Person who installed the Radio Remote Control on the Machine. Pay particular attention to LED indications during normal Radio Remote Control operation: they can be helpful to evaluate the Machine's working status. Any information signalled by LEDs for the "Data Feedback" function can never be considered or used as a safety signal or for legal metrology. When operating and moving the Machine, remember that the Radio Remote Control does not intervene autonomously when potential hazardous situations are signalled. If the green LED repeats the sequence "three blinks and a pause", there is no information and/or signals coming from the "Data Feedback" function. In this case, bring the Transmitting Unit closer to the Receiving Unit until the green LED blinks slowly. LIUA8BEN0_eng-01 AUTEC - Air series General operating instructions 8.13 27 BACK-UP UNIT If the Transmitting Unit cannot be used, it can be replaced with a Transmitting Unit called "BACK-UP UNIT"; you need to ask for it to Autec. It is identical to the Unit that can no longer be used; the only difference is the presence of the plate “BACK-UP UNIT” on the battery cover. Set DIP switch 2 in the "BACK-UP UNIT" as shown in the Technical Data Sheet. If no "ID internal tx memory" is present in the Transmitting Unit that can no longer be used, perform the PAIR procedure to pair the “BACK-UP UNIT” with a Receiving Unit (the Technical Data Sheet shows which PAIR procedure to use). If an "ID internal tx memory" is present in the Transmitting Unit that can no longer be used, move it to the "BACK-UP UNIT" and perform the address saving procedure described below. As required by standard IEC 60204-32, each Radio Remote Control is uniquely identified through a serial number. Therefore, upon replacement of the Unit, the serial number of the Transmitting Unit to be replaced must be marked on the "BACK-UP UNIT", so that all Units belonging to the Radio Remote Control will show the same serial number. Autec cannot be held responsible if the serial number of the Transmitting Unit to be replaced has not been marked on the "BACK-UP UNIT". Address storage Perform the following procedure with fully charged battery, power keyswitch and "ID internal tx memory" in the "BACK-UP UNIT": 1. press the START pushbutton and hold it down until the green and red LEDs light up. 2. wait until the green LED blinks slowly; 3. within 3 seconds, activate in sequence the pushbuttons corresponding to PIN 1, PIN 2 and PIN 3 that compose the PIN code given in the Technical Data Sheet. If the PIN code is incorrect, the red LED illuminates and the Transmitting Unit switches off. In this case, the storage procedure shall be repeated. If the PIN code is correct, the green LED turns steady on and the Transmitting Unit switches off: this indicates that the address has been stored in the "BACK-UP UNIT". It is now possible to start the Radio Remote Control and control the Machine with the "BACK-UP UNIT" Transmitting Unit. AUTEC - Air series LIUA8BEN0_eng-01 28 Instructions for the User Instructions for the User The chapter "Instructions for the User" in "Part A" of the Instruction Manual contains the warnings for the use that add to those provided in this chapter.

If the problem persists after attempting the suggested solution, contact the support service of the Machine Manufacturer. Signals Possible reason Solutions The green LED is lit with a steady light or it repeats the sequence: three blinks and a pause. The Transmitting and Receiving Unit do not communicate. Bring the Transmitting Unit closer to the Receiving Unit until the green LED blinks quickly (if the signal doesn't change, check that the Receiving Unit is powered). Then press the START pushbutton and hold it down until the green LED blinks slowly. The green LED repeats the sequence: two blinks and a pause. The working range of the Radio Remote Control (see paragraph "Technical data" in the general part of the Instruction Manual) has been exceeded for more than 20 seconds. Bring the Transmitting Unit closer to the Receiving Unit. Then press the START pushbutton and hold it down until the green LED blinks slowly. The green LED blinks fast. Temporary loss of radio link. Press the START pushbutton and hold it down until the green LED blinks slowly. The green LED blinks slowly (one blink per second). The Receiving Unit may not work correctly. See "Malfunctions signalled by the Receiving Unit " in Part D of the Manual. The red LED is steady on during start up The STOP pushbutton is pressed or damaged. Unlock the STOP pushbutton. LIUA8BEN0_eng-01 AUTEC - Air series Decommissioning and disposal 33 Signals Possible reason The red LED blinks twice per second during start up. At least one of the pushbuttons is pressed or damaged. Bring the pushbuttons to the rest position. The red LED blinks three times per second during start up. The battery is flat. Replace the battery with a charged one. The red LED is steady on for two seconds during start up. The Transmitting Unit does not work correctly. Contact the support service of the Machine Manufacturer. A wrong "ID internal tx memory" has been inserted in the Transmitting Unit. Use the correct "ID internal tx memory". You're using a "BACKUP UNIT" with the "ID internal tx memory" of the Transmitting Unit that has been replaced. Store the address in the "BACK-UP UNIT" (see paragraph 8.13). The green and red LEDs blink three times per second during start up. "ID internal tx memory" is damaged. Contact the support service of the Machine Manufacturer. The green LED is lit with a steady light and the red LED blinks two times per second during start up. The START pushbutton is activated. release the START pushbutton. The green LED repeats the sequence: 3 blinks and a pause, and the red LED is steady on during start up. The UNPAIR procedure provided in the document "Menu of Transmitting Unit (MTU)" has been carried out. If the Transmitting Unit has an "ID internal tx memory", perform the ALIGNMENT procedure. If the Transmitting Unit does not have an "ID internal tx memory", perform the PAIR procedure.
