Page 2 of 16 2 - Introduction LIMJNMA0English 2  INTRODUCTIONIndustrial radio remote controls of the Modular se-ries are used to command machines from a dis-tance. Each industrial radio remote control is madeup of a portable transmitting unit, from which theuser can remotely control the machine, and a re-ceiving unit installed on board the machine itself.The transmitting unit uses radio frequencies totransmit a coded message which contains a valuecalled address. Each receiving unit can only de-code the messages coming from a transmitting unitwith the same address.This excludes the possibility of an interference ac-tivating any system function. If the radio frequencytransmission is disturbed, incorrect or interrupted,the receiving unit autonomously stops the wholesystem.Each Modular series radio remote control complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.Operation is subject to the following two conditions:(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference thatmay cause undesired operation.  Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party re-sponsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operatethe equipment.Autec cannot be held responsible if the radio remote control is in-stalled on applications that are different from those permitted:PERMITTED USES Material lifting machines (construction cranes, industrial bridgecranes, machines for moving material in general, . . . ).FORBIDDEN USESMachines installed in areas where equipment with explosion-proofcharacteristics are being used.Machines for moving, raising and transporting people.ReceivingunitTransmitting unit!!
LIMJNMA0 2 - Introduction Page 3 of 16All machines must undergo a risk analysis; therefore it is necessary to evaluate, withinthe 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 useand 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 regardingsafety at work and accident prevention should be respected. All current user countrynational laws regarding the use of both the machine and the radio remote controlMUST ALWAYS be respected.Autec cannot be held responsible if the radio remote control is used in unlawfulworking conditions.System must be installed by a licensed technician and in accordance with all rel-evant local, state/provincial and federal regulations, including but not limited toNEC, OSHA, CE etc.In any cases of emergencies, faults or damaged parts, ALWAYS stopthe “machine + radio remote control” system until the problem hasbeen solved.Any damaged parts can ONLY be replaced by authorised Autec personnelor service representative, and only using original Autec spare parts. !
Page 4 of 16 2 - Introduction LIMJNMA0EnglishINSTRUCTIONS FOR DOCUMENT MANAGEMENTThe following minimum documentation is supplied with each radio remote control:- transmitting unit manual- receiving unit manual- battery charger manual- a guarantee certificate- the radio remote control technical data sheet.Make sure that the following documents have been supplied: if they are not, re-quest them from Autec. Please specify the radio remote control serial number.CERTIFICATE OF GUARANTEEThe conditions of the radio remote control guarantee are given in the “Certificate ofGuarantee”. TECHNICAL DATA SHEETThe technical data sheet shows the wiring system between the receiving unit andthe machine. It should be compiled and checked by the installer, who has the re-sponsibility of correct wiring. Once all necessary checks have taken place the in-staller must sign the technical data sheet, which must be kept with the user'smanual (always keep a copy of this data sheet in case it is needed for administra-tive purposes).IDENTIFICATION PLATESThe radio remote control identification and approval data is given on plates that areon both the transmitting unit and the receiving unit.The plates MUST NOT be removed from where they are placed or damaged oth-erwise the warranty will be forfeited.MODULAR SERIES TECHNICAL DATAFrequency band  .................................................................................  902 - 928 MHzProgrammable radio channel .................................................................................. 32 Hamming distance................................................................................................... ≥8Probability of non-recognition of error ......................................................  <10 exp-11Typical working range ....................................................................................... 100 mTime of reply to commands .........................................................................  < 100 msTime of reply to STOP.................................................................................  < 100 msPassive emergency time ........................................................................  * 0,35/1 sec.* refer to paragraph “Programming” in the receiving unit manual, DIP nr. 1 settings.Following from the status of dip switch no.1 or possibly due to a fai-lure (of the dip switch itself), a delay up to max 1 second may occa-sionally occur between command release and actual deactivation ofoutputs. This is due to the characteristics of radio propagation (i.e.:EM interferences, near out-of-range condition). Care must be takento ensure that this could never lead to.!

LIMJNMA0 9 - MJ transmitting unit diagnostics Page 15 of 16 9  MJ TRANSMITTING UNIT DIAGNOSTICSIf the “machine+radio remote control” system does not start, check if the problem is causedby the radio remote control or the machine. Before carrying out any verifications, check thefunctioning of the machine with the cable control panel: - if it does not switch on, the problem lies with the machine itself- if it does switch on, the problem lies with the radio remote control. In this case, proceedas follows:When START is activated, is the red LED lit steadily and does the buzzer sound?Is the STOP button or one of the movement actuator inserted? Release it/them Is the led on with a steady light?Does the red LED blink and does the buzzer sound?The battery is dis-charged: replace it with one that is charged. Does it con-tinue to blink quickly and the buzzer sound-ing?Clean the contacts in the battery seat. Does it continue to blink quickly and the buzzer sounding?Does the green LED blink?Carry out diagnostics checks on the receiving unit.If the problem persists CALL TECHNICAL ASSISTANCEYESNO NOYESYESYESNONONONOYESYES
