1.1 INTRODUCTION
The basic system consists of a transmitter and a receiver.
The transmitter sends commands to the receiver by means
of radio waves in the 900 MHz band. Receivers operate 1.3 RECEIVER DESCRIPTION

mounted inside a NEMA 12 cabinet. They are equipped
with two safety relays in addition to the control relays.
The
hand held transmitters are housed in
rugged cases molded from a modified polymer plastic
that stands up to extremely rugged use. A key feature of
the hand held transmitters is Remtron's patented switch
assembly for control inputs. This long life elastomeric
keypad is ergonomically designed to provide easy
operation over long periods of time with exceptional
reliability.
The
lever and joystick transmitters provide
rugged yet lightweight housings that allow daylong use
without a strain on the back.
All the transmitter functions are controlled by a
microprocessor with a special memory for configuration
information. This offers a great degree of capability and
versatility while at the same time providing simplicity of
operation and maintenance.
RF/Decoder Board
The RF/Decoder Board contains the Radio Receiver
and the Microprocessor based control system. Signals
are received by an advanced synthesized RF module
that operates in conjunction with the microprocessor.
Commands are received on one of 87 possible
frequencies and are checked against a 16 bit address
code for proper identity and further tested against a 16
bit CRC check code. This insures only valid information
meant only for the particular unit is decoded.
The microprocessor contains a nonvolatile memory that
retains the frequency, address and particular operating
parameters for the system. The receiver is programmable
by means of PC compatible computers equipped with
an RS-232 serial port or by an independent programming
unit.
The antenna is internal to most transmitter cases, protecting Relay board.

safety in controlling the Main Contactor for the crane.
Refer to Section 6 for more information on the options.
Over 5 million combinations of frequencies and address
codes means that no two systems will ever be produced
with the same frequency and address code, thereby
insuring that no transmitter will ever be able to
unintentionally control another crane.
Diagnostics
Even though the receivers are technically very complex,
it is exceptionally easy to maintain and troubleshoot.
Diagnostic LEDs plus an LED for each output relay are
all that are required to isolate a problem should one
occur. Both the transmitter and receiver assembly monitor
and indicate their status on a continuous basis.

SECTION 2: INSTALLATION
2.1 INSTALLATION PLANNING
2.3 ANTENNA MOUNTING
To ensure reliable and safe operation of the system, the
following points must be considered before installing the
receiver assembly.
The antenna is one of the most important parts of a radio
receiving system. The receiver is designed with a specially
tuned antenna to provide excellent operating reliability
under most conditions. Care in placing the receiver
If the receiver cabinet is to be installed outdoors, antenna will ensure reliable operation under the most
severe conditions.
connections to the cabinet must be water tight.
A direct "line-of-sight" between the transmitter and
receiver antenna will provide the best performance. The
radio signal will often "bounce" off metallic objects and
reach the receiver even when the antenna is directly
shielded from the transmitter.
If the receiver is installed in a corrosive environment,
consult the factory for optional NEMA 4X cabinets, or
house the receiver cabinet in a secondary protective
enclosure.
If the receiver is to be installed in environments where
the ambient temperature drops below -20OF (-7OC)
or rises above +160OF (+70OC) measures must be taken
to maintain the interior of the enclosure to within these
temperature limits.
In most cases the antenna may be mounted directly on
the receiver cabinet. If the receiver cabinet location is
not suitable and the antenna must be mounted at a remote
location, the p/n 600038 antenna kit should be used.
The remote mounting kit includes a right angle bracket
with antenna mount and a coaxial extension cable.
2.2 MOUNTING LOCATION
It is recommended that the receiver not be connected to

Receiver Troubleshooting.
WARNING !
Throughout the troubleshooting procedure,
work is performed within the receiver cabinet
while the system is powered. Certain points
in the cabinet contain dangerous voltages.
Use extreme caution when working inside
the cabinet with power on.
4.
Turn the transmitter on. If the SIGNAL LED lights
but the ADDRESS LED does not, there is a
difference between the transmitter and receiver
address code. Change the identity code on the
transmitter or receiver so that they are the same.
Refer to section 5.2 for setting the identity code.
5.
If only some of the functions are operating, check
to see if the relay LED's come on for the inoperative
functions.
AVERTISSEMENT !
Tout au long des procédures de dépannage,
un travail est effectué dans le boîtier puisque
le système est sous tension. Certains
endroits du boîtier contiennent des tensions
dangereuses. Être extrêmement vigilant lors
de travaux à l’intérieur du boîtier lorsque le
système est sous tension.
Verify the identity code is the same for the transmitter
and receiver.
Check the output voltage of the respective relays
and the crane circuits.
Check the condition of the transmitter switches.
If the unit is new, check the configuration sheet to
verify the function has been programmed.
6.
3.2
If you experience intermittent operation, check all
connections and make sure that the terminal strips
SECTION 3: TROUBLESHOOTING
are firmly snapped in place and that the RF/Decoder
board is firmly attached to the back of the Relay
board.
Check antenna connections.
7.
If Operating Range is short, Check all antenna
connections and the transmitter operation.
On new installations, verify the receiver antenna is
placed properly. If necessary, use an antenna
mounting kit to relocate the antenna to a more
favorable location.
Replace the RF/Decoder board.
8.
If any of the Contact Sense (Relay Sense) indicators
are lit (21R22 only), a difference between the
intended output command and the relay (or contactor
state occurred. This is usually caused by a failed
relay contact.
The indicator will remain illuminated even after the
transmitter is turned off. The next time the transmitter
is turned on, or if the receiver power is cycles, the
indicator will turn off unless the problem remains.
If external inputs are used for contact sensing,
examine and repair if appropriate the wiring between
the back conacts of the directional contactor and
the receiver input. Also examine the contactor for a
problem.
