ERGOF-2G4
1. DESCRIPTION
The ERGOF-2G4 is a 2.4GHz MFS Transmitter that has eight panel switches that can be configured with
1~3 step switches. It has four digital inputs dedicated to the left and right single step side switches, two
digital inputs for toggle switch with 3 states, and one digital input for E-Stop switch. All switches (except E-
Stop) have configurable DK assignments; a maximum of 3 DKs can be assigned for each switch. The Start
SW has a fixed DK1 assignment in addition to the 3 DKs that can be assigned to it. The E-stop switch is
fixed to DK31.
Note: Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not
cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

3.1.Transmitter Layout
3.2.Switch Operations
S1: Power ON SW / DK1 Start SW
S2, S11, S12: momentary switches
S3-S10: 3-steps capable momentary switches
S13, S14: remain switches
S15: Emergency Stop SW / Power OFF
3.3.Control Signals to Receiver
The coder is set to transmit 32DK telegram. A switch can be assigned with a maximum of 3-
DKs except for the Stop SW (DK31). The Start SW is also fixed with DK1 in addition to the 3-
DKs that can be assigned to it. These settings can be configured via H-Link and saved in the
RFID.
3.4.Power Supply Functions
• Without the Stop key, it is not possible to switch ON the transmitter.
• Upon pressing the Start switch, the transmitter will check for a valid RFID in the Stop
key. After a valid RFID has been verified, the transmitter will continue power ON
operation and enter [Transmit] mode to start transmitting non E-Stop telegrams. During
this time, all DKs will remain in neutral status except DK1 and DK32 until the start key
is released.
• If any of the panel switches (S3~S10) is active when the Start key is pressed to turn ON
the transmitter, it shall enter [E-Stop] mode to start transmitting E-Stop telegrams.
o If all of the panel switches (S3-S10) is released while the Start key is still
pressed, the transmitter shall enter [Transmit] mode to start transmitting non E-
Stop telegrams.
o If the Start key is released while the abnormal switch is still active (S3~S10), the
transmitter shall automatically turn OFF 1sec after the Start key is released.
• If the Stop key is active when the Start key is pressed to turn ON the transmitter, it shall
enter [E-Stop] mode to start transmitting E-Stop telegrams. If the Stop key is released
while the Start key is still pressed, the transmitter shall remain in [E-Stop] and shall
automatically turn OFF 1sec after the Stop key is released
• If Stop key is pressed during [Transmit] mode, the transmitter shall enter [E-Stop] mode
to start transmitting E-Stop telegrams to receiver. The transmitter shall remain in [E-
Stop] mode for at least 2secs or while the Stop key is still pressed before it automatically
turns OFF.
3.5.Panel Switches Interlocking Functions
• The 8 panel switches are paired into 4 from top to bottom, S3/S4, S5/S6, S7/S8, S9/S10.
Switch pairs can be interlocked with each other depending on the users setting. By
default, switch pairs are interlocked.
• Interlock function can be configured via H-Link.
3.6.Auto-OFF Function
• During [Transmit] mode, if there is no operation and the switch status remained
unchanged for a certain period of time, the transmitter will automatically turn OFF
provided that the auto-OFF function is enabled.
• Auto-OFF wait time is adjustable via H-Link.
3.7.Low Battery Detection
• If a low battery level is detected while in [Transmit] mode, the red led will turn ON.
• If the battery level has recovered to 3.65V~ after low battery has been detected, the low
battery status and warning indication will be cleared.
• If the battery level dropped to ~3.1V while in [Transmit] mode, the transmitter will
automatically turn OFF.
• The low battery detection level can be set to Normal (~3.4V) or advance (~3.5V).
3.8.H-Link Configurations
• Address: 000001~999999
• Duty Cycle: 1% ~ 10% (MFS version)
• Frequency Channel Selection
• Auto-OFF: Disabled, 1 min ~ 1hr
• Panel Switch Interlocking
• DK assignments
