Safety
2.1 General
The “Safety” chapter provides an overview of all important safety aspects for
optimum protection of personnel as well as safe and trouble-free operation of
DRC-10 hand-held transmitters.
At the time of its development and manufacture, the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter
was built according to generally accepted engineering standards and is considered
to be safe to operate. The DRC-10 hand-held transmitter may still be a cause of
danger if it is not used correctly or as intended by suitably trained personnel.
Knowledge of the contents of the operating/assembly instructions is one of
the requirements necessary to protect personnel from hazards and to avoid
malfunctions and, therefore, to operate the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter safely
and reliably.
Any conversions, modifications or additions to the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter
are prohibited unless approved in writing by Terex MH.
2.2 Intended use
The DRC-10 hand-held transmitter is intended to be used as a control unit and
transmitter station for DRC-DR and DRC-MP radio receivers. The scope of functions is designed preferably for wireless control of crane installations, travelling
hoist units, chain and rope hoists, transfer carriages and similar applications.
The operator can position himself as required. He can control loads and
movements from a safe distance. He must always select a location to ensure that
all movements of the load and the crane can be monitored and any hazardous
movement can be switched off in good time. Before starting any crane movement
by actuating the operating element, the operator must determine which crane
is being controlled. The display of the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter shows the
identification/crane number of the crane under control. The radio-controlled crane
must be identified by means of the identification/crane number in a way clearly
visible to the operator.
If required, a signal must be actuated prior to a crane movement for acoustic
control.
DRC transmitters and receivers meet the requirements of the standards and
regulations listed in the EC conformity declaration. The specified EC conformity
declaration is an integral part of the relevant operating/assembly instructions.
DRC transmitters and receivers do not require any registration or operating fees,
see section 4.2 “International postal approval”. The benefits that this provides for
the user are also utilised by some other manufacturers of devices for communications and telemetry applications. The consequence of this is that the relevant
approved frequency ranges may be used by many transmitters at the same time,
depending on the time and location.
The transmission method used by Terex MH is designed for the most robust and
interference-resistant radio transmission between the transmitters and receivers of
the DRC range.
211 266 44.indd/151014
© Terex MHPS GmbH
The state-of-the-art transmission method is provided with technical features
(frequency hopping) which are designed to ensure a minimum of conflicts for radio
operation together with other transmitter and receiver devices which use the same
frequency range.
Despite all of the technical precautions taken by Terex MH, it cannot be entirely
excluded that the transmission characteristics of other radio systems are impaired,
in particular devices supplied by other manufacturers that use the same frequency
range, or that the transmission characteristics of the system supplied by Terex MH
are negatively affected.
In such cases, interference or radio connection interruptions may occur, which
disrupt the communication and function of a system supplied by Terex MH or other
manufacturers. Such impairment or interference does not constitute a defect on
the part of DRC transmitters and receivers. Terex MH accepts no liability for wilful
or grossly negligent behaviour.
The number of transmitters that operate without any interference in a given area
depends on the relevant radio solution design of all systems and the selectivity of
each individual system.
If this limit is exceeded continuously or for certain periods, additional technical
measures may be necessary in order to ensure simultaneous and interferencefree operation of the radio systems. Whether and to which extent such measures
are required can only be determined by means of suitable measurements on site
or when the system is put into operation. Terex MH is not responsible for such
additional technical measures.
DRC D3 transmitters and receivers can be used for multiple transmitter operation
as well as multiple receiver operation. Refer to the corresponding operating and
assembly instructions for details.
DRC-10 hand-held transmitters may only be operated when in perfect working
order by trained personnel in accordance with the relevant safety and accident
prevention regulations. This also includes compliance with the operating and
maintenance conditions specified in the operating/assembly instructions.
National occupational safety and health regulations must be observed and
followed.
DRC-10 hand-held transmitters that are ready for operation must not be left
unattended. They must be protected against unauthorised use.
For intended use, the information in the operating/assembly instructions for the
radio receiver used (DRC-DR/DRC-MP) and the machine/crane installation to be
controlled must be complied with in addition to the information contained in these
operating/assembly instructions (see accompanying documents, page 3).
Serious personal injury or damage to property may occur in the event of:
• unauthorised removal of covers,
• inappropriate use of the product/system,
• incorrect operation,
• insufficient maintenance,
10

Design and function
6.1 Transmitter/receiver
interface
Demag DRC radio control systems are designed for wireless control of hoist units
and cranes. They are the man/machine interface for manually controlled crane
installations. The relevant EU directives and standards are complied with for this
application.
A DRC D3 radio control system consists of one or more transmitters as well as at
least one or more receivers.
These operating/assembly instructions refer to DRC-10 hand-held transmitters in
combination with the matching DRC-DR D3 or DRC-MP D3 radio receivers.
• The Demag DRC-DR radio receiver is a PCB that is designed to be installed in
the electric equipment cover of a DR hoist unit. The interface of this transmitter
component to the crane control system is the CAN safety bus and the power
supply via the DR electric equipment. The DRC-DR radio receiver is only suitable for operation with a DR hoist unit.
• The Demag DRC-MP radio receiver is a complete unit with its own enclosure
and power supply from the control voltage network of the crane installation.
Relay contacts for the individual control commands and the emergency stop
circuit form the interface of this unit to the crane control system. An additional
semiconductor output with pulse width modulation is provided for variablespeed crane drives. The DRC-MP radio receiver can be used for a wide range
of applications.
Demag DRC-DR and DRC-MP radio receivers are equipped for bi-directional
radio transmission and transmit information to the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter.
This increases the safety and reliability of the radio system. Status information for
the crane control system and the receiver is shown on the display of the DRC-10
hand-held transmitter.
6.2 Transmission method
Frequencies in the so-called 2,4 Ghz ISM band are used for transmission of radio
signals between transmitters and receivers.

The new proprietary radio transmission method used for DRC D3 meets the most
demanding requirements in terms of transmitter density and co-existence with
other equipment that operates in the 2,4 GHz ISM band. The radio transmission
method combines various transmission mechanisms: A frequency-hopping system
ensures that radio transmission is robust and highly resistant to interference –
an adaptive characteristic (LBT) combined with this enables interference with
neighbouring radio applications to be effectively eliminated.

6.3 Power supply for
DRC-10 hand-held
transmitters
DRC-10 hand-held transmitters are supplied with power by the rechargeable battery pack included in the scope of delivery or by two AA (LR6) NiMh rechargeable
batteries. The batteries must be charged in good time by means of the appropriate
plug-in charger. The ambient temperature must be between +10° C and +45° C for
the charging process.
6.3.1 Display of available battery
capacity
The battery capacity is shown on the display of the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter.
The charging status of the battery corresponds to the dark surface of the battery
icon.
For a new battery, the full battery icon represents a useful operating period for the
DRC-10 hand-held transmitter of approx. 5 days when it is switched on.
If only a residual charge is displayed, connect the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter to
the charger at the next opportunity. If the battery icon is empty, the DRC-10 handheld transmitter must be connected to the charger immediately.
The operating time that can be achieved by a DRC-10 hand-held transmitter with
one battery charge depends on the operating mode of the DRC-10 hand-held
transmitter, the ambient temperature and the age of the batteries.
Approx. 5 days of operation can be achieved with one battery charge if the
DRC-10 hand-held transmitter is continuously switched on.
The following measures reduce power consumption:
• Change to Standby during breaks in operation (see section 8.3 on page 47).
• Switch the transmitter off (see section 8.3 on page 47).
Further measures to reduce power consumption include switching off the background illumination and the vibration alarm (see page 58).
6.3.2 Charging the batteries
When this battery icon is displayed, immediately charge the integrated
batteries using the plug-in charger included in the supply.
If the batteries are not charged immediately, the battery icon will start to
flash and the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter will switch off after a few seconds 1).
Quick charging of the batteries with the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter is only
possible at ambient temperatures from +10 °C to +45 °C. If the temperature is
higher or lower than this range, the charging process is aborted and the system
automatically switches over to trickle charging.

Charging socket
The charging process is monitored and controlled by the electronic charging
system in the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter. Partly discharged batteries can also
be charged.
To charge the batteries, proceed as follows:
– Plug the charger unit into a power socket.
– Plug the connecting cable into the charger socket of the DRC-10 hand-held
transmitter.
The hand-held transmitter will be charged.
The
icon will appear on the display.
The green LED flashes at 2 Hz.
The DRC-10 hand-held transmitter generates an acoustic signal.
The DRC-10 hand-held transmitter changes to standby mode. The crane cannot
be operated.
The charging process comprises quick charging and trickle charging modes.
Quick charging:
This process takes approx. 2 hours if the battery is empty, it
charges the battery to approx. 100%.
Trickle charging:
At the end of the quick-charging phase, the system switches
over to trickle charging mode with a lower charging current.
The DRC-10 hand-held transmitter can remain connected to
the charger for any period of time. This also indicated by an
acoustic signal.

Icon to show there is no battery fitted.
This icon appears if a battery problem occurs, e.g.:
• batteries are defective,
• batteries are too old,
• attempt to charge non-rechargeable batteries.
Defective batteries must be replaced by new ones (see section 6.3.3)
Important: To ensure sufficient charging of empty batteries, the DRC-10 handheld transmitter must be connected to the charger for at least 2 hours. The full
battery icon is not sufficient after the charger plug is disconnected, as this icon
already appears after a only brief period of charging.

6.3.3 Replacing the batteries
The rechargeable batteries in the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter age as a result
of charging/discharging cycles and continuously lose their charge capacity. We
recommend that the rechargeable batteries be replaced after a year, at the latest.
Rechargeable batteries must be immediately replaced if the relevant icon for a
battery failure is displayed.
The NiMh rechargeable batteries supplied with the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter
have been specifically selected for the requirements of this radio control system.
The electric and mechanical features of the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter and
rechargeable batteries have been matched to fulfil all requirements for smooth,
safe and reliable operation.
For replacement, use rechargeable battery pack, part no. 773 499 44.
The use of non-approved rechargeable batteries may result in DRC-10 handheld transmitter operating malfunctions or lasting damage to the charger and the
DRC-10 hand-held transmitter.
When replacing the rechargeable batteries, check the contacts in the battery
compartment for sufficient contact pressure. New rechargeable batteries must fit
tightly between the contact surfaces.

NOTE
If primary cells are used in the DRC-10 hand-held transmitter, it must not be
connected to the charger to avoid any damage caused by overheating during
the attempt to charge them.
In exceptional situations, if no charged batteries are available, the DRC-10 handheld transmitter may be operated with two size AA (LR6) 1,5 V primary cells to
EN/IEC 60086. We recommend the use of Duracell and Varta brand alkaline
batteries. Primary cells cannot be recharged.
Observe local legal regulations for the correct disposal of old batteries and
rechargeable batteries.
