2Safety Regulations

Ø Strictly observe and always adhere to the respective regulations on labor safety and

accident prevention when operating a radio controlled system !

Ø Retrofitting of a radio control to a crane or machine is considered to be a major

modification. The crane or machine must therefore be subject to an approval

inspection. The user of the crane or machine is responsible for a proper entry of this

inspection in the crane’s or machine’s inspection record.

Ø The commissioning of the radio equipment is only possible if you dispose of a

special authorization from the postal authorities.

Ø Before using the radio control, it is necessary to be familiarized with this system !

Therefore, only authorized and sufficiently instructed personnel who are familiar with

the instructions should be allowed to use the radio control.

Ø In case of a defect, an emergency situation and whenever a malfunction occurs in

the working area of the radio system, it is required that it be switched OFF

immediately until the cause of the defect has been located and repaired !

− Take out the key from the transmitter’s key switch.

− Disconnect the connecting cable from the receiver.

Ø Have defective radio systems repaired only by an expert. Use only original

replacement parts of the manufacturer for any repair.

2.1 Warning Notes

Ø The crane operator is required to control the crane in such a way that no danger

may possibly occur, even if the radio transmission is interrupted so that no

counteraction is possible anymore (e.g. for the turning of slewing tower cranes). If

necessary, stops limiting the slewing range may have to be installed on the slewing

tower crane in order to ensure that the crane may not be moved into a hazardous

area.

Ø The remote control transmitter may be switched ON only as long as a visual contact

exists with the crane.

Ø The minimum duration of the command and the response time are slightly increased

by the radio control (cf. specifications of the radio control system).

Ø The radio control transmitter may only be connected to machines suitable for the

installation of a radio control system via the appropriate cable connections.

overheating (e.g. direct sun radiation).

Ø Quick charging of NiCd batteries only in a temperature range between 50 °F and

104 °F (+10 °C and +40 °C).

Ø Protect the battery contacts against accidental shortening, i.e. do not store the

batteries in a tool box or carry them loosely in your pockets. A bunch of keys is

enough to shorten the battery. Use the protective caps delivered.

Ø Pay attention to correct polarity ! – After inserting the battery into the battery

compartment of the battery charger, the nameplate must be visible. Operation of the

transmitter will not be possible otherwise !

Ø The NiCd batteries are charged in the factory. Due to longer storage times, however,

the batteries may reach you partially charged or discharged. Therefore, they should

be charged before the first use. To charge the battery, remove it from the transmitter

and put it into the battery compartment of the battery charger.

4Operation

Caution :

The operation of the transmitter is permissible only with the carrying set included

with the transmitter (possibility of mixing up the controls) !

1. Prior to the first initial start-up or

before you start working, a charged

FuB 05 AA battery must be inserted

into the battery compartment (item.

À). The battery supplies the voltage

required for the operation of the

transmitter (6 V DC).

Note :

After inserting the battery, the

nameplate must be visible.

Operation of the transmitter will

not be possible otherwise !

2. Unlock the EMERGENCY-STOP

pushbutton (item Á) by turning it.

3. Switch ON the radio transmitter via

the key switch (item Â).

The dual color LED flashes green, i.e.

the transmitter is operational.

A radio connection to the receiver is established when the red LED "HF/RF/H.F./HF" on

the receiver will be extinguished and the green LED "Si1" is illuminated (see radio status

panel of the receiver), i.e. the radio system is ready to operate and the control

commands may be input via the transmitter.

If the dual color LED on the transmitter flashes red and / or an acoustic signal comes,

this indicates that the battery is almost fully discharged. Now, you must replace the

discharged battery by a charged one and recharge the discharged battery (cf. "Battery

Charger", section 4.1).

Note :

If the discharged battery is not replaced by a charged one, the transmitter will

automatically be switched OFF after a few minutes.

If the transmitter was deactivated – unintentionally or intentionally – via the

EMERGENCY-STOP pushbutton following steps have to be carried out for further radio

transmission :

1. Switch OFF the transmitter via the key switch.

2. Unlock the EMERGENCY-STOP pushbutton.

3. Switch the transmitter ON again via the key switch.

Note :

The transmitter must always be switched ON via the key switch and not via the

EMERGENCY-STOP pushbutton.

Since switching OFF the transmitter when it is not used is quite often forgotten, it is

equipped with an automatic deactivation (auto OFF function). The transmitter will thus be

switched OFF automatically about 15 minutes after the last control command has been

input.

The automatic transmitter deactivation also helps to save the energy of the rechargeable

batteries.

4.2 Special Operating Modes (Options)

In this section special operating modes are described. They are available as options with

certain radio systems.

If your radio system is not equipped with one of those operating modes (options) you

can leave out the corresponding section.

4.2.1 Scanner

With the option scanner, the transmitter and the receiver are equipped with 4 radio

frequencies each (refer to wiring diagrams).

If the radio channel used is currently occupied by another operator, another radio

channel may be selected via a rotary switch. The scanner in the receiver will

automatically follow the transmitter to the radio frequency selected.

After switching ON the transmitter (key switch ON, EMERGENCY-STOP pushbutton

unlocked) or after a frequency change during operation, it will last only a short time until

the receiver has "followed" the transmitter to the frequency selected.

4.2.2 tele-teach-in Battery TTB 05

The eco L radio control features together with the FSE 717 radio receiver the so-called

tele-teach-in option.

This specific function allows you to input and store the minimum as well as maximum

speeds assigned to the individual linear lever functions in a simple manner.

The tele-teach-in option is available for all proportional functions (linear lever

commands).

Important note !

Your radio control system was already adapted to your specific crane by a

retailer respectively the manufacturer.

Should the crane movements nevertheless be executed in a jerky manner or too

fast, then please contact your retailer or the manufacturer in order to have the

settings adapted.

In the following, the programming of the minimum and

maximum speeds of the individual control functions will be

described by means of tele-teach-in.

The programming keys ("+" and "–") are located on the

TTB 05 tele-teach-in battery (see fig. right).

Note :

Please read the instructions at hand completely and

carefully before beginning with the programming !

HBC-radiomatic GmbH • D-74564 Crailsheim • GERMANY

Radio Control System

Programming

1. Switch OFF the transmitter.

2. Insert a charged TTB 05 tele-teach-in battery into the transmitter.

3. Depress the programming keys "+" and "–" simultaneously and then switch ON the

transmitter. Keep the programming keys depressed until the green service LED of

the transmitter starts flashing quickly. Now, the control is in the tele-teach-in mode.

4. Setting the minimum speed (fig. 2)

Push the linear lever toward the desired function.

Note :

Do not move the linear lever beyond 50 % of the maximum

lever travel.

Then adjust the minimum speed by means of the "+" and "–" keys, i.e. by looking for

the minimum point when the hydraulic valve begins to react. It will be helpful to

observe the way the function is carried out as well as the movement of the lever of

the hydraulic valve (fig. 2).

5. Setting the maximum speed (fig. 3)

Push the linear lever toward the desired function by moving it to

its end position. Then adjust the maximum speed by means of the

"+" and "–" keys, i.e. by looking for the maximum point when the

hydraulic valve begins to react. In order to make use of the full

lever travel of the linear lever, do not actuate the "+" key any

longer after the hydraulic valve has reached its maximum travel

(fig. 3).

Note :

In the tele-teach-in mode, only execute one single function at the time, not all

linear levers in a diagonal way, as it is only possible to program one single

function at the time.

For all further linear lever functions, please repeat the steps beginning with item 3.

In order to verify the programmed settings, switch OFF the transmitter and then switch it

ON afterwards. Now, the transmitter is again in the normal operating mode.

In case of systems that offer creeping function, all the functions will have to be

programmed again in the creeping mode (switch set to the snail symbol).
