- 1 -LIPROMA3-00- 1 Conventions - 1CONVENTIONSAny pieces of text written in bold should be read very carefully.This symbol highlights extremely important indications and informationwhich, if not observed, can create seriously dangerous situations for people,equipment or property.This symbol highlights all important indications and information that dealwith operation. 2CONFORMITYThe C26 PRO series PRO-M radio remote control is in conformity with FCCRules (Part 90 for the transmitting unit and Part 15 for the receiving unit).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 interferencethat may 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.In Technical Data (see chapter 15) there are the characteristics of safety functionsaccording with EN 954-1.All machines must undergo a risk analysis; therefore it is necessary to evaluate, with-in 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 useand installation is responsible for this analysis.Autec, or its distributors, cannot be held responsible if the risk analysis is notcarried out correctly and if the radio remote control is installed on applica-tions that are different from those permitted:PERMITTED APPLICATIONS:Hoisting and moving machines installed exclusively on vehicles thatuse a battery as electrical power supply source (for example: hy-draulic cranes, concrete pumps…)FORBIDDEN APPLICATIONS- machines installed in areas where equipment with explosion-proof characteristics are being used- AC supplied machines- machines using a DC supply that does not come from a battery- machines where risk analysis regarding verification of radio re-mote control conformity to the application is not possible or hasgiven a negative or uncertain result.To guarantee correct radio remote control operation, all current regulations regardingsafety at work and accident prevention should be respected. All applicable standardsand regulations valid in the user country regarding the use of both the machine andthe radio remote control MUST ALWAYS be respected.Autec cannot be held responsible if the radio remote control is used in un-lawful working conditions.System must be installed by a licensed technician and in accordance with allrelevant local, state/provincial and federal regulations, including but notlimited to NEC, OSHA, CE etc.
- 2 - LIPROMA3-00- 3 Radio remote control description - 3RADIO REMOTE CONTROL DESCRIPTIONIndustrial radio remote controls are used tocommand machines from a distance. Each in-dustrial radio remote control is made up of aportable transmitting unit, from which theuser can remotely control the machine, and areceiving unit installed on board the machineitself. The transmitting unit sends a codedmessage over radio frequency transmission.This message contains a value called “ad-dress”, which lets the receiving unit decodeonly the messages coming from its owntransmitting unit (the one that has the sameaddress).This ensures that no interference can activateany command. If the radio frequency trans-mission is disturbed, incorrect or interrupted,the receiving unit autonomously stops thewhole system. 4WARNINGS REGARDING INSTALLATIONFAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS MAY RE-SULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSONNEL AND DAMAGETO EQUIPMENT.Installation must only be carried out by qualified people and in ac-cordance with the standards and regulations in the country in whichthe system is to be installed. Only a correct installation can ensurethe necessary level of safety during subsequent radio remote con-trol use.GeneralindicationsRespect the machine operational characteristics when connecting the Radio remotecontrol. The safety circuits on the radio remote control and/or present on themachine should not be bypassed (or excluded).The receiving unit wiring can be configured very easily, therefore it can be installedwithout having to modify the machine. Do not modify the machine electric panel with-out the machine manufacturer authorization.Disconnect the receiving unit by detaching all the electrical connec-tions each time some welding operation is performed on the ma-chine.InstallationThe receiving unit must be placed in a position that favours reception of thesignals issued by the transmitting unit.It should therefore be assembled vertically (antenna upwards). The receiving unitshould also be easily accessible to permit operation under safe conditions.If the receiving unit is covered by metal structures or installed inside metal panels,use the appropriate extension kit for external antennas.The antenna must never come into contact with metal parts.It is forbidden to pierce the receiving unit casing. Doing so compromises theprotection degree against external agents (level IP65).The vehicle creates vibrations, therefore antivibration blocks must always be used toreduce the effect that these vibrations have on the receiving unit.The receiving unit must be positioned away from heat sources (exhaust pipes, alter-nators, radiators etc.)WiringMost machines are connected to the receiving unit by multiple-pole plugs which per-mit quick disconnection of the radio remote control for replacement with a hard wiredReceiving unitTransmitting unit
- 3 -LIPROMA3-00- 5 Warnings regarding use -(cabled) control. This connecting technique is advisable even if the machine is notoriginally equipped for it.The reliability of the installation is largely dependent on the quality of the wiring, andconnections should therefore be made to the highest standards using multi-core orsingle-core cables of suitable cross-sectional area for the current to be carried. Cablesshould also be flame retardant (for further information refer to IEC 60204 - 1).Oil resistant cables should be used for connections external to the receiving unit.The receiving unit power supply must pass through an isolationswitch to permit power disconnection during installation, wiringand/or maintenance operations.To improve radio remote control operation, connect the receivingunit immediately downstream of the machine main switch.It is always advisable to check the supply voltage even under maximum load; in thisway the maximum variations can be verified (the limit values of tolerated deviationare given both in the Technical Data and on the technical data sheet of the Radio re-mote control).Receiving unit supply voltage fluctuations that exceed the limit val-ues can compromise regular radio remote control operation.The C26-PRO series radio remote controls are equipped with circuits to protectagainst unintended movements from standstill of the actuators if the wiring indica-tions indicated in the technical data sheet are respected.Proportional outputsettingAutec supplies the radio remote control with the proportional output valuesalready set depending on the valve type(s). During installation, these valuesmust be verified and, if necessary, modified according to machine functionand operator preference (see chapter 12).TestingWhen installation and wiring have been completed, always do the following:- make sure that when the radio remote control STOP pushbutton is pressedthe machine goes into a situation of safety (through direct action on thegeneral solenoid valve of the main circuit), the motor possibly switchesoff and, if present, the main line contactor opens to remove voltage.- make sure that the manoeuvres carried out by the machine and whichhave been commanded by the transmitting unit correspond exactly(this correspondence is given in the technical data sheet)-check safety circuit operation (a simple way of doing this is to removefuse F3, housed on the main board of the Receiving Unit. Make sure thatin these conditions no movement command can be carried out, then insertthe F3 fuse again and check correct operation)The installer must also compile and/or verify the two copies of the technicaldata sheet, where the wiring layout between the receiving unit and the ma-chine is given. The first copy of the technical data sheet is inside the receiv-ing unit, the second is annexed to the user's manual. The installer must putthe date of installation, sign and stamp both copies. 5WARNINGS REGARDING USEFAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS MAY RE-SULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSONNEL AND DAMAGETO EQUIPMENT.The radio remote control can only be used by operators who:- have read and understood this manual,- are qualified and trained,- know the “radio remote control + machine” system well.The radio remote control can only be used by operators who:- have read and understood this manual,
- 4 - LIPROMA3-00- 6 Warnings regarding routine maintenance -- are qualified and trained,- know the “radio remote control + machine” system well.Autec, or its distributors, cannot be held responsible if the radio re-mote control is installed on applications other than those permittedand if used in irregular working conditions.Each time the transmitting unit is powered, make sure that theSTOP pushbutton operates correctly and that, when pressed, ma-chine movement is interrupted instantly.If this does not occur, do not use the radio remote control.The operator should always ensure that both units are complete andthat the gaskets, bellows and hoods of the actuators (joysticks, se-lectors, pushbutton) are whole. If not, the radio remote controlmust not be used before being repaired.To work efficiently and to prevent possible emergency situations, itis necessary to select a position from where it is possible to:- remain inside the typical working range of the radio remote con-trol (see chapter 15)- visually follow the machine, its movements and its load at alltimes.Duringoperation The operator must:- switch off the transmitting unit each time work is stopped- NEVER leave the transmitting unit unattended with the startingkeyswitch inserted- avoid working if the battery is almost flat.The operator should never switch on or activate the transmittingunit unless ready to start working. A radio link can be created evenoutside the active range and from enclosed places, creating the pos-sibility for the radio remote controlled machine to carry out undes-ired commands.In case of danger If a dangerous situation arises, the operator must intervene imme-diately by pressing the STOP pushbutton, which instantly interruptsmachine movement.As not all hazards are caused by the “radio remote control + ma-chine” system, the operator should be careful even when emergen-cy situations are present in the work area. The operator should, alsoin this case, intervene manually by activating the STOP command.In case of fault In case of faults or damaged parts, ALWAYS STOP the “radio remotecontrol + machine” system until the problem has been resolved.Any damaged part can ONLY be replaced by authorized Autec per-sonnel and only using original Autec spare parts. 6WARNINGS REGARDING ROUTINE MAINTENANCEWhile carrying out routine and special maintenance on the radio re-mote control and the machine, remove the battery from the trans-mitting unit and disconnect the connection plug from the receivingunit.All control and maintenance procedures carried out on the radio remote control mustbe verified and recorded by the person in charge of carrying out maintenance on themachine.Routine maintenance carried out as described in this manual is fun-damental for using the radio remote control safely.
- 5 -LIPROMA3-00- 6 Warnings regarding routine maintenance -After each maintenance procedure, always make sure that only theexpected manoeuvres are carried out when the relative commandsare sent by the transmitting unit. SummaryThe prescriptions that follow should be considered as the minimum necessary for safeand correct radio remote control operation. Special applications may need more spe-cific routine maintenance procedures to be carried out at different periods.These recommendations may never be considered as forming a contract, nor replaceany local, state or federal regulations concerning workplace safety. Furthermore,these recommendations do not limit the responsibilities of the purchaser and/or userof the radio remote control regarding safe work practices.All the mentioned prescriptions must be carried out each time the machineand 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, fol-lowing the indications given (see chapter 7).Transmitting unit The following must be completed daily:1. remove dust or accumulations of other material from the transmitting unit.

Please specify the serial number of the relative radio remote control.The information contained in this manual is subject to modification without notice andis not binding.No parts of this manual may be reproduced by any means without the written per-mission of Autec (including recording and photocopying).Technical data sheet The technical data sheet shows the wiring system between the receiving unit and themachine. It should be filled out and checked by the installer, who has the responsi-bility of a correct wiring.
- 7 -LIPROMA3-00- 9 Transmitting unit and how it works -Once all necessary checks have taken place, the installer must undersign the techni-cal data sheet, which must be kept with the user's manual (always keep a copy of thisdata sheet in case it could be required).Identificationplates The radio remote control identification data are written on a technical data plate bothon the transmitting unit and on the receiving unit.The plates MUST NOT be removed from where they are placed. If damaged,please contact Autec or an authorized representative for a replacement. 9TRANSMITTING UNIT AND HOW IT WORKSPower on and start up Check that the starting keyswitch is in position “O”, gently insert the bat-tery in its housing. Check that the STOP pushbutton has not been pressedand that none of the actuators are out of their respective neutral posi-tions.Turn the starting keyswitch to “I”, activate the START pushbutton and re-lease it when the green light starts to flash.The transmitting unit only switches on if the battery has sufficientcharge and if all the actuators are inactive.CommandsIt is possible to control the radio remote machine only after the transmitting unit hasbeen radio linked to the receiving unit (signalled by the lighting up of the ENABLE pilotlight on the receiving unit (see chapter 10)).After the radio link is established, machine movements are available by acting on theproper actuators.All commands protected by the SAFETY function are approved to category 3 of EN 954- 1 against the undesired movements when in the standstill position (UMFS - Unin-tended Movement From Standstill).Some transmitting unit commands are given below:HornWith the transmitting unit switched on, press the START pushbutton: the machinehorn/alarm activates.STOPTo immediately stop the machine, press the STOP pushbutton: the transmitting unitswitches off automatically.To start working again, rotate the STOP pushbutton in the direction indicated and re-peat the power on and start up procedures.The STOP pushbutton must be used each time the machine has to bestopped immediately due to a dangerous situation.The STOP circuit is approved in category 4 according to the EN 954 -1.Aactuators (joystick or selector)BSTOP pushbuttonCSTART/horn pushbuttonDstarting keyswitchEselector rpm +/-Fspeed selectorGbatteryHidentification plateLtwo signalling LEDs (green and red)AEFCDLHGB

This selector can have two, three or four positions which respec-tively activate two, three or four speed levels.Frequency change In case of interference or conflict with other radio systems, it is possible to changethe radio frequency being used.With the transmitting unit powered and started, keep the START pushbutton pressedfor 5-6 seconds: a prolonged beep accompanied by the switching on of both signallinglLEDs indicate that the frequency has changed. During this operation the receivingunit switches off: press the START pushbutton again to start working normally.LEDsignalsSome transmitting unit operating conditions are signalled by two signalling LEDs (onegreen and one red):When the battery is approximately 90% discharged, the green light will start flashingat a faster rate to inform the operator that the battery requires recharging. If the op-erator continues to use the radio control, approximately 3 minutes before the batteryis fully discharged, the red light will start flashing and an acoustic alarm will sound.In this situation, the operator must return the machine to a condition of safety (bypressing the stop pushbutton), switch off the transmitting unit, and recharge the bat-tery or fit a fully charged battery.Power offTurn the ignition key to “O”.Always remember to remove the starting keyswitch and put it in a safe place.Automatic power off The transmitting unit can switch off automatically when:- the battery is not sufficiently charged and/or- the radio remote control has not been used for 3 and a half minutes (to deacti-vate automatic switching off, please contact Autec authorized personnel).Recharging the battery Remove the battery from the transmitting unit and insert in the battery charger.The “ON CHARGING” light will illuminate to indicate that the battery is being charged.Once the battery is fully charged, the “END OF CHARGE” light will illuminate. Batterycharging should be performed at an ambient temperature within the range +5°C to+45°C.See the supplied manual for all instructions, warnings and technicaldata regarding the batteries and the battery changer.Signal typeLEDgreen redSlow blinking normal operation /QuickblinkingWarningthat the battery isalmost dischargedWarningthat the battery isdischargedContinuous lighton starting * /Command operated during start upBoth LEDs steadily lit simultaneously Frequency change occurred* accompanied by an acoustic signal

Make sure that the transmitting unit is switched off.2. Remove power from the receiving unit.3. Open the receiving unit and position the DIP 1 in ON.4. Power the receiving unit.5. Switch on and start up the transmitting unit.6. Turn the starting keyswitch to the “ ” (REMOTE SET UP) position.Calibration7. Select one or more positions of the rotary switch S on the RI97-08PVZA moduleto calibrate the related parameters.8. Operate the RPM+/- selector on the transmitting unit (where the + increases thespeed that is being calibrated and - decreases it).Moving the joystick outside of the standstill position during the cal-ibration, a horn/alarm sounds for 0.5 seconds signalling that theminimum calibration zone is approaching.If a speed selector with 2 or more pre-set levels is present on thetransmitting unit, calibration is to be performed for each of the se-lector positions.If the RI97-08PVZA module inputs are used on the receiving unit,calibration is performed for each of these inputs activating them insequence.Signal typeLEDsred green yellowSteady light //the initial values of the proportional out-put are reset when the restorepushbutton Pis pressedBlinking data memoryis damagedthe RI97-08PVZA module is powered and functioning *the REMOTE SET UP function is active(DIP 1 is ON)Lightswitched offthe data memory is functioningthe RI97-08PVZA module is notpowered andis not functioningthe REMOTE SET UP function is not active(DIP 1 is OFF)* if the blinking is slow, there is no radio linkbetween the transmitting and the receiving unit
- 13 -LIPROMA3-00- 13 Radio frequencies -Modulecalibration Position 0: dither frequency (for PWM output only)When the rotary switch S is at 0, the PWM (current) dither frequency can be adjusted.This value should not normally be modified. If necessary operate on the RPM+/- se-lector on the transmitting unit to modify the desired valuePosition 1: minimum and maximum values for Z2-Z7 outputsThe maximum and minimum values of the two semiaxis of each joystick are adjustedwith the rotary switch S in position 1. Proceed as follows:- To set the maximum value, take the joystick to the maximum range of the semi-axis to be calibrated. Keep the same position and use the toggle switch RPM +/-to set the desired value.- Once the maximum values have been set, take the joystick just out of the stand-still position of the semiaxis to be calibrated to set the minimum values. Keep thesame position and use the toggle switch RPM +/- to set the desired value.Position 2: output value when the joystick is in the standstill positionThe voltage value corresponding to the joystick standstill position is adjusted with therotary switch S in position 2. This value should not normally be modified. If necessaryproceed as follows:- take any joystick out of the standstill position- Keep the same position and use the toggle switch RPM +/- to set the desired val-ue.Position 3: maximum and minimum Z8 output valuesPosition 4: maximum and minimum Z9 output valuesWhen the rotary switch S is at 3 and 4, it is possible to regulate the maximum andminimum values of auxiliary outputs Z8 and Z9 respectively. Proceed as follows:- To fix the maximum value, use the related actuator (on the transmitting unit) andtake it to its end limit. Keep the same position and use the RPM +/- toggle switchto set the desired value.- Once the maximum value has been set, use the related actuator (on the trans-mitting unit) and take it to the beginning to fix the minimum value. Keep thesame position and use the toggle switch RPM +/- to set the desired value.Position 5: inversion of the movement directionThe direction of the movement is inverted with the rotary switch S in position 5 (forthe powered outputs only). Proceed as follows:- position the joystick of the axis to be inverted outside the standstill position- keep this position and position the RPM+/- selector on the transmitting unit to +to invert the direction of the semiaxis, and to - to reset the semiaxis direction.Saving thecalibration 9. Switch off the transmitting unit to save the calibration.10. Remove power from the receiving unit.11. Position DIP 1 to OFF.12. Close the receiving unit and connect the power supply. 13RADIO FREQUENCIESA radio remote control can be programmed in AUTOMATIC SCAN or MANUAL SELEC-TION.Automatic scan A radio remote control is normally programmed by the manufacturer in the followingmanner: it can therefore operate in any of the available frequencies. In cases of in-terference or conflict with other systems, the working frequency can be changed (seeparagraph “Frequency change”) without having to touch the inside of either the trans-mitting or the receiving units.Manualselection Only contact Autec authorized personnel if the working radio fre-quency has to be set in this manner.Using the radio remote control in the manual selection mode makes it possible towork at a specific frequency. To set this frequency, you must set the dip switches lo-cated in the transmitting and receiving modules.
