LIMJNMA0 1 - Index and conventions Page 1 of 16 English 2 INTRODUCTION Industrial radio remote controls of the Modular series are used to command 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 a transmitting unit with the same address. This excludes the possibility of an interference activating any system function. If the radio frequency transmission is disturbed, incorrect or interrupted, the receiving unit autonomously stops the whole system. Receiving unit Transmitting unit 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 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 Material lifting machines (construction cranes, industrial bridge cranes, machines for moving material in general, . . . ). FORBIDDEN USES Machines installed in areas where equipment with explosion-proof characteristics are being used. Machines for moving, raising and transporting people. Page 2 of 16 2 - Introduction LIMJNMA0 All machines must undergo a risk analysis; therefore it is 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 current user country national laws 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 any cases of emergencies, faults or damaged parts, ALWAYS stop the “machine + radio remote control” system until the problem has been solved. Any damaged parts can ONLY be replaced by authorised Autec personnel or service representative, and only using original Autec spare parts. LIMJNMA0 2 - Introduction Page 3 of 16 INSTRUCTIONS FOR DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT The 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. English Make sure that the following documents have been supplied: if they are not, request them from Autec. Please specify the radio remote control serial number. CERTIFICATE OF GUARANTEE The conditions of the radio remote control guarantee are given in the “Certificate of Guarantee”. TECHNICAL DATA SHEET The technical data sheet shows the wiring system between the receiving unit and the machine. It should be compiled and checked by the installer, who has the responsibility of correct wiring. Once all necessary checks have taken place the installer must sign the technical data sheet, which must be kept with the user's manual (always keep a copy of this data sheet in case it is needed for administrative purposes). 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. The plates MUST NOT be removed from where they are placed or damaged otherwise the warranty will be forfeited.

The unit may also switch off if the battery is not sufficiently charged and/or when the radio remote control is not used for more than 3 and half minutes (set DIP nr. 1: refer to paragraph 8 "Programming"). STOP The STOP button should be used when it is necessary to stop the machine immediately in order to check any danger condition. To stop the machine immediately, press the STOP button. To start working again, after having made sure that the working conditions are safe, turn the STOP button in the direction indicated to deactivate it and repeat the starting procedure. BATTERY To recharge a flat battery, proceed as follows: 1. Insert the battery into its proper battery charger, which should be positioned in an area having a temperature of between +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 3 hours the "CHARGE" indicator switches off: the battery is fully charged. Remove the battery from the charger (if the battery is not removed, charging continues in maintenance mode). Page 12 of 16 6 - MJ transmitting unit operation LIMJNMA0 7 FREQUENCIES The radio frequency of AUTEC radio remote controls is included in the group of frequencies permitted by regulations that are current at the moment of radio remote control entry onto the market. Each radio remote control is programmed by the producer in the AUTOMATIC scan mode (producer's standard programming) or MANUAL selection mode. 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 personnel that have been authorised by Autec. 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 equipment using the “Changing the operating frequency” procedure. This mode avoids internal interventions on the transmitting unit and the receiving unit. Working frequency change process 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. N.B.: During the work frequency changing process, the receiving unit loses radioelectric connection with the transmitting unit. After starting, some seconds may be necessary to reset connection, therefore keep the START button pressed for about 8-10 seconds. LIMJNMA0 7 - Frequencies Page 13 of 16 8 PROGRAMMING The dip switches must be programmed with the battery removed from the transmitting unit and can be done only by authorised personnel. The incorrect closure of the transmitting unit can compromise seal between the casings and thereby the protection grade from dust and water. English DIP SWITCHES ON E16STXUS1 RADIO TRANSMITTING MODULE The group of eight dip switches found in the module is necessary for programming some operations and setting the operating 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 POS.

Page 14 of 16 8 - Programming LIMJNMA0 9 MJ TRANSMITTING UNIT DIAGNOSTICS If the “machine+radio remote control” system does not start, check if the problem is caused by the radio remote control or the machine. Before carrying out any verifications, check the functioning 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, proceed as follows: When START is activated, is the red LED lit steadily and does the buzzer sound? YES Is the STOP button or one of the movement actuator inserted? Release it/them Is the led on with a steady light? YES NO NO Does the red LED blink and does the buzzer sound? The battery is disClean the contacts charged: replace it in the battery seat. YES with one that is YES YES Does it continue to charged. Does it conblink quickly and the tinue to blink quickly buzzer sounding? and the buzzer sounding? NO Does the green LED blink?
