In case of an emergency, pressing down the red emergency stop button will immediately
disconnect the receiver MAIN and as well as the transmitter power. To resume operation,
rotate the red button clockwise or counter clockwise, and it will pop up. Then rotate the
power key-switch to START position for up to 1.0 second to activate all transmitter push
button functions and the receiver MAIN (depends on JP3 setting on page 25). Please
note that every time you turn the transmitter power off and back on again, or after
resetting the emergency stop button, all push button functions will be locked to avoid
any unintentional controls. For safety, initiating the START command after turning on the
transmitter power or after resetting the emergency stop button is required.
f.
After 5 minutes of inactivity (push button not pressed) the receiver MAIN will be
disconnected temporarily (depends on JP1 & JP2 settings on page 25). The receiver
MAIN will also be disconnected temporarily when the receiver encounters strong radio
interference or when the operator is controlling the crane or equipment beyond the
transmitting range. To resume operation, just rotate the power key switch to START
position to reconnect the receiver MAIN.
g.
To turn off the transmitter power, just rotate the power key counter-clockwise to the “Off”
position; it will disconnect the transmitter power and the receiver MAIN altogether. Turn it
further counter-clockwise to release the key.
7.1.2 Automatic Channel Scanning Operating Procedure
After changing the transmitter channel (refer to page 15), turn on the transmitter power and rotate
the power key switch to “Start” position and hold it there for up to 1 minute. Within this 1-minute
period the receiver will search (channel 01 - channel 62) and lock onto the newly selected
transmitter channel automatically. Please note that in order for the receiver to switch to auto-
scanning mode, prior to changing the transmitter channel, you must first deactivate the receiver
MAIN by shutting off the transmitter power or press down the emergency stop button. Please refer
to page 22 if you do not want the receiver to auto-scan all 62 channels.
