Operation
4.1 Prepare the Battery
Fully charge the OCU rechargeable battery pack before using the remote control system for the first time.
Note:
Charging the battery pack can take up to three hours.
Refer to
for battery changing and charging instructions, respectively.
4.2 Selecting the TransKeys
Due to the flexible TransKey concept, it is common for one OCU to control multiple cranes or machines. Each
crane or machine is provided with a unique pair of TransKeys with the same address. Insert this pair of
TransKeys into their respective OCU and MCU locations before carrying out remote control operations.
WARNING
MORE THAN ONE REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM MAY BE USED AT, AROUND OR NEARBY YOUR
OPERATING FACILITY. THEREFORE, BEFORE INSERTING A TRANSKEY INTO AN OCU, BE
SURE THE CORRECT CODED TRANSKEY IS SELECTED FOR THE DESIRED EQUIPMENT TO
OPERATE.
IF THE WRONG TRANSKEY IS INSERTED INTO AN OCU, OTHER REMOTE CONTROLLED
EQUIPMENT LOCATED AT, AROUND OR NEARBY YOUR FACILITY MAY BECOME
OPERATIONAL.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE ABOVE WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN UNINTENDED
OPERATION OF REMOTE CONTROLLED EQUIPMENT, WHICH COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS
INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSONNEL AND DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
4.3 Turning on the OCU
The OCU start sequence is configurable and is supplied preset to either ‘Default’ or ‘Alternate’; both sequences
can include a STOP Switch Test Routine.
4.3.1 Prestart Check
Be sure to insert the correct TransKey – refer to
for the OCU TransKey location.
Note:
Do not swap the OCU and MCU TransKeys. The OCU (transmitter) TransKey is black. The MCU
(receiver) TransKey is yellow. Swapping TransKeys results in OCU/MCU fault indications and the
system will not operate.
Make sure the STOP switch is in the “out” position. If the switch has been pushed down to the ‘STOP’
position, you first must unlatch the switch knob by rotating in a clockwise direction.
