BEFORE INSTALLING, STARTING AND USING THE RADIO REMOTE CONTROL, THIS MANUAL MUST BE READ AND UNDERSTOOD BY ALL PEOPLE WHO INSTALL, USE AND CARRY OUT MAINTENANCE ON THE RADIO REMOTE CONTROL. LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm 1 - Index and conventions Page 1 2 INTRODUCTION Industrial radio remote controls of the Light series are used to control machines from a distance. Each industrial radio remote control is made up of a portable transmitting unit, from which the user can remotely control the machine, and a receiving unit installed on board the machine itself. The transmitting unit uses radio frequencies to transmit a coded message which contains a value called address. Each receiving unit can only decode the messages coming from its own transmitting unit with the same address. This excludes the possibility of an interference activating any system function. If the radio transmission is disturbed, incorrect or interrupted, the receiving unit autonomously stops the whole system. Receiving unit Transmitting unit Each radio remote control complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions: - this device may not cause a harmful interference, and - this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Autec cannot be held responsible if the radio remote control is installed on applications that are different from those permitted: PERMITTED USES Hoisting machines (construction cranes, bridge cranes, machines for material handling in general,…). FORBIDDEN USES Machines installed in areas where equipment with explosion-proof characteristics is required. Machines for moving, raising and transporting people. Page 2 2 - Introduction LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm All machines must undergo a risk analysis: it is therefore necessary to evaluate, within the limits of this analysis, if the machine can be radio remote controlled. The machine producer and/or the person who decides upon radio remote control use and installation is responsible for this analysis. Autec cannot be held responsible if the risk analysis is not carried out correctly. To guarantee correct radio remote control operation, all current regulations regarding safety at work and accident prevention should be respected. All applicable standards and regulations valid in the user country regarding the use of both the machine and the radio remote control must always be respected. Autec cannot be held responsible if the radio remote control is used in unlawful working conditions. System must be installed by a licensed technician and in accordance with all relevant local, state/provincial and federal regulations, including but not limited to NEC, OSHA, CE etc. In case of malfunction and/or emergency, disable the system “machine+radio remote control” until the problem has been completely solved. Any damaged part can ONLY be replaced by authorised Autec personnel, and ONLY using original Autec spare parts. 2.1 DOCUMENTATION Documentation enclosed with each radio remote control includes at least the following: - transmitting unit manual - receiving unit manual - battery charger manual - certificate of guarantee - technical data sheet. Make sure that such documents have been supplied: if they are not, please ask them to Autec specifying the product serial number. Technical data sheet The technical data sheet shows the wiring diagram between the receiving unit and the machine. The technical data sheet must be filled in and checked by the installer, who is responsible for a correct wiring. Once all necessary checks have been carried out, the installer must undersign the technical data sheet, which must be kept with the user's manual (always keep a copy of this data sheet for administrative purposes). LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm 2 - Introduction Page 3 Identification plates The radio remote control identification and approval data is given on plates that are on both the transmitting unit and the receiving unit. These plates MUST NOT be: - removed from their position - altered or damaged (contact Autec for replacement) 2.2 GENERAL TECHNICAL DATA Frequency band...................................................................................... 902 - 928 MHz Available radio channels............................................................................................ 32 Hamming distance .................................................................................................... ≥ 8 Probability of undetected error..................................................................... <10 exp-11 Typical working range............................................................................... 330 ft (100 m) Command response time................................................................................ ~ 100 ms STOP command response time....................................................................... ~ 100 ms Passive emergency time (or passive stop) * ................................................. 0.35/1 sec. refer to paragraph “Programming” in the receiving unit manual, DIP No. 1 settings. Due to the characteristics of radio propagation (i.e.: EM interferences, near out-of-range condition), a delay up to one second may occasionally occur between command release and actual deactivation of the corresponding output. Care must be taken to ensure that this could never lead to a dangerous situation in the specific uses.

BE POSITIONED in a way that permits him to see the system “machine+radio remote control”, and above all the load, in the best possible way. Before using the radio remote control ALWAYS MAKE SURE that the STOP pushbutton can be pressed and released: if it does not work, do not use the radio remote control. SWITCH OFF the transmitting unit when work is interrupted. Avoid leaving the load suspended in the air (even when changing the battery). NEVER LEAVE the transmitting unit unguarded when the starting keyswitch is inserted. SWITCH ON OR USE the transmitting unit only when starting work: improper use could be hazardous. NEVER SWITCH ON OR USE the transmitting unit in closed spaces, with the machine not in sight, or outside the typical working range. PRESS immediately the STOP pushbutton in case of hazard. PAY ATTENTION to the entire work area. Press the STOP pushbutton in case of hazard. PAY ATTENTION not to let elements such as concrete, sand, lime, etc. deposit on the transmitting unit because they can compromise transmitting unit use and safety. In case of malfunctions and/or damaged and/or faulty parts, PUT the radio remote control out of use until the problem has been completely eliminated. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE ABOVE WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSONNEL AND DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT. LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm 4 - Warnings for use Page 7 5 WARNINGS FOR MAINTENANCE ENSURE THAT THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE TRANSMITTING UNIT BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE WORK. All control and maintenance actions carried out on the radio remote control must be verified and recorded by the person in charge of carrying out maintenance on the machine. Before carrying out maintenance and/or diagnostics it is recommended to replace the battery with a charged one and ensure the efficiency of the starting keyswitch. Routine maintenance carried out as described in this manual is fundamental for using the radio remote control safely. Read and strictly stick to the warnings given in the battery charger manual in order to lengthen the life of the battery itself. After each maintenance action, always make sure that commands sent by the transmitting unit only activate the corresponding expected operations. 5.1 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE The following instructions allow to maintain the radio remote control in perfect conditions, guaranteeing it to function safely and correctly for a long period. Special applications may need more specific routine maintenance actions to be carried out at different periods. These instructions do not in any case substitute the norms and laws that regulate work safety, nor do they limit the responsibility of the purchaser and user of the radio remote control. All given instructions must be followed correctly each time the machine and the radio remote control are put into service. If irregularities are noted while carrying out routine maintenance, put the “machine+radio remote control” system out of order, following the indications given (see paragraph 9 "LK transmitting unit diagnostics"). Transmitting unit It is recommended every three months to: 1. remove dust or accumulations of other material from the transmitting unit: never use solvents or flammable/corrosive materials to clean, and do not use high pressure water cleaners or steam cleaners. 2. store the transmitting unit in clean and dry areas. 3. make sure that the gaskets, bellows and caps of the actuators (selectors and pushbuttons) are intact, soft and elastic 4. make sure that the battery housing and the battery contacts are always clean 5. check structural integrity of the transmitting unit 6. make sure that the panel symbols can be easily recognised and replace the panel if necessary 7. check that the identification plate is readable and not damaged 8. make sure that the STOP pushbutton works properly before using the radio remote control. Page 8 5 - Warnings for maintenance LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm Half yearly maintenance Make sure that all the relay contacts of the receiving unit operate correctly, and check that the contact closes when the corresponding manoeuvre is enabled and opens when the manoeuvre is disabled 5.2 SPECIAL MAINTENANCE (AUTEC SERVICE) Any fault should be repaired by authorised personnel (contact AUTEC SERVICE), using original Autec spare parts only. Authorized Service Center When it is necessary to carry out special maintenance (radio remote control repair and replacement of damaged or faulty parts), do not contact anyone other than our Authorized Service Center. In order to make the intervention faster and more reliable, please help us identify the radio remote control correctly and completely by giving: - serial number - purchase date - description of the problem found - address and telephone number of the place where the device is being used (with the name of the person to contact) - local supplier. It is recommended to read and understand all parts of this manual, and make sure that all the instructions it contains have been followed correctly before contacting the Service technicians. 5.3 DISPOSAL When disposing of a radio remote control, give it to the waste separate collecting services in the user's country. Please pay particular attention when recycling the batteries, applying local rules. Do not throw them away with domestic trash. LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm 5 - Warnings for maintenance Page 9 6 WORKING MODE OF THE LK TRANSMITTING UNIT POWER ON AND START UP 1. To switch on the transmitting unit, insert the starting keyswitch in the appropriate slot. 2. To start the radio remote control functions, press the START pushbutton for 1-2 seconds. COMMAND ACTIVATION Activate the pushbuttons and/or selectors related to any of the movement or selection commands to be carried out. After starting, the green signalling LED always lights up. SIGNALS TYPE MEANING ACTION slow blinking NORMAL WORKING /// fast blinking LOW BATTERY the transmitting unit switches off 3.5 minutes after the LED starts blinking switch off the transmitting unit and replace the battery steady light on starting* ONE OR MORE (movement) ACTUATORS and/or STOP PUSHBUTTON are ACTIVATED release all actuators and/or the STOP pushbutton * Red LED if present. Page 10 6 - Working mode of the LK transmitting unit LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm STOP The STOP pushbutton should be pressed when it is necessary to stop the machine immediately when a dangerous condition should occur. To stop the machine immediately, press the STOP pushbutton. To start working again, after checking that the working conditions are safe, turn the STOP pushbutton in the direction indicated to deactivate it and repeat the starting procedure. BATTERY To recharge a low battery, proceed as follows: 1. Insert the battery into its proper battery charger, which should be positioned in an area with a temperature between +41°F and 113°F (+5°C and +45°C): the battery now starts charging, a state signalled by the lighting up of the “CHARGE” pilot light. 2. After a maximum of 4 hours the “CHARGE” light switches off: the battery is fully charged. Remove the battery from the charger (if the battery is not removed, the charger switches to trickle charging). SWITCHING OFF The transmitting unit should be switched off each time work is stopped by extracting the starting keyswitch (always put the key in a safe place). The transmitter unit may also switch off automatically if the battery is not sufficiently charged and/or when the radio remote control is not used for more than 3.5 minutes (refer to paragraph 8 "Programming"). LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm 6 - Working mode of the LK transmitting unit Page 11 7 FREQUENCIES Radio frequency transmission of AUTEC radio remote controls operates inside frequency bands permitted by European regulations that are valid when the radio remote control is placed on the market. Each radio remote control is programmed by the producer in the AUTOMATIC scan mode (producer's standard programming) or MANUAL selection mode. 7.1 MANUAL SELECTION MODE When operating in the MANUAL selection mode it is possible to work at a specific frequency that must be set manually by programming the dip switches in the radio modules (refer to paragraph 8 "Programming"). To set or modify this operation mode contact authorised Autec personnel. 7.2 AUTOMATIC SCAN MODE When operating in the AUTOMATIC scan mode it is possible to operate at a specific frequency, which can be changed in case of interference or conflict with other radio systems, using the “Changing the working frequency” procedure. This mode allows to change the working frequency without internal interventions on the transmitting unit or the receiving unit. Changing the working frequency 1. With the transmitting unit started (blinking green LED): - press the START pushbutton and keep it pressed (a), - press the STOP pushbutton (b), - release the START pushbutton. 2. Unlock the STOP pushbutton by turning it as shown in the photo and repeat the starting procedure. Page 12 7 - Frequencies N.B.: During the working frequency changing process, the receiving unit loses radio link with the transmitting unit. After starting, some seconds may be necessary to reset connection, therefore keep the START pushbutton pressed for about 8-10 seconds. LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm 8 PROGRAMMING The dip switches must be programmed when the battery is removed from the transmitting unit. Programming must only be carried out by authorised personnel. The incorrect closure of the transmitting unit can compromise the seal between the casings and thereby the protection degree from dust and water. For the correct functioning, the group of 8 dip switches (excluding DIP 1) for the radio modules E16STXUS1 (transmitting unit) and E16SRXUS1 (receiving unit) must be set in the same way. 8.1 PROGRAMMING THE E16STXUS1 TRANSMITTING MODULE The group of eight dip switches located on the radio module are used to program some functions and set the working frequency. The programming set in the other group of four dip switches must never be modified. Group of 8 dip switches Group of 4 dip switches Group of 8 dip switches DIP STATE FUNCTION ON The transmitting unit never switches off automatically If the transmitting unit stays switched on without any movement OFF commands entered, it switches off after approx. 3.5 minutes ON Deactivation of low battery warning from horn on machine OFF Activation of low battery warning from horn on machine If DIP 8 is OFF automatic scan of the frequencies in the band ON 915 -928 MHz If DIP 8 is OFF automatic scan of the frequencies in the band OFF 902 - 915 MHz 3-7 ON/OFF If DIP 8 is ON see “Appendix: Frequency Table” Manual selection mode of the frequencies using DIP 3 - DIP 7 ON (refer to “Appendix: Frequency Table”) Automatic scan mode of the frequencies in the band selected by OFF DIP 3 (DIP 4 - DIP 7 indifferent) LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm 8 - Programming Page 13 9 LK TRANSMITTING UNIT DIAGNOSTICS If the system “machine+radio remote control” does not start, check if the problem is caused by the radio remote control or the machine. Therefore, before carrying out any verification connect the cable control unit: if the machine does not start, the problem lies with the machine itself. If, on the other hand, the machine only starts using the cable control panel, the problem lies with the radio remote control. In this case, follow the diagnostics procedure of the transmitting unit and then proceed as follows: Is the LED lit with a steady light when activating the START? YES STOP pushbutton or one of the movement actuators are activated: disconnect it/them. Is the LED lit with a YES steady light? NO NO Does the LED blink fast? YES NO Does the LED blink slowly? The battery is disClean the contacts charged: replace it YES in the battery hous- YES with a fully charged ing. Does it continue one. Does it continto blink fast? ue to blink fast? NO YES NO Carry out diagnostics checks on the receiving unit. NO If the problem persists, CALL TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE Page 14 9 - LK transmitting unit diagnostics LILKNPA1-01 - AmEn.fm Appendix: FREQUENCY TABLE E16STXUS1 MHz DIP SWITCH DIP SWITCH MHz 3 4 5 6 7 8 3 4 5 6 7 8 902.150 903.050 915.350 916.250 ON OFF OFF OFF OFF ON OFF OFF OFF ON OFF ON 903.850 OFF OFF OFF OFF ON ON 917.050 ON OFF OFF OFF ON ON 904.650 OFF OFF OFF ON ON ON 917.850 ON OFF OFF ON ON ON 905.525 OFF ON OFF OFF OFF ON ON ON OFF OFF OFF ON 906.325 OFF ON OFF ON OFF ON 918.675 919.525 ON ON OFF ON OFF ON 907.175 OFF ON OFF OFF ON ON ON OFF OFF ON ON 907.975 OFF ON OFF ON 920.375 921.175 ON ON 908.850 ON ON OFF OFF ON OFF OFF 909.650 OFF OFF ON ON OFF ON 922.050 922.850 ON OFF ON 910.450 OFF OFF ON OFF ON ON 923.650 ON OFF ON OFF ON ON 911.250 OFF OFF ON ON 924.450 ON OFF ON ON 912.125 OFF ON ON OFF OFF ON 925.325 ON ON 912.925 OFF ON ON ON OFF ON 926.175 ON ON ON 913.775 914.525 OFF ON ON OFF ON ON ON ON ON OFF ON ON ON ON ON 926.925 927.725 OFF OFF OFF OFF OFF ON ON ON ON ON ON ON OFF OFF ON OFF ON ON OFF ON ON ON OFF ON OFF OFF ON ON ON ON OFF ON ON ON ON OFF OFF ON ON OFF ON ON OFF ON ON ON ON ON ON Via Pomaroli, 65 36030 Caldogno (VI) ITALY Tel : ++39 - 0444/901000 r.a.
