Communication between the RC-4R and a Data Collector

Bluetooth

 communication

The 

Bluetooth

 module built-in the RC-4R enables wireless-communication with 

Bluetooth

-compatible 

equipment.

Serial signal connector

By connecting this connector to a PC or a data collector, it will provide the date transmission.

Mounting Remote Controller Handle Unit RC-4H onto the TS/IS/QS

If you wish to do turn-round motions, attach the remote controller handle unit RC-4H to the TS/IS/QS.

1

Dismount the handle from TS/IS/QS.

2

Match the handle unit mounting marks for the RC-4H and TS/IS/QS.

3

Make sure that the fixing knob is tightly fastened.

Note

Ensure that the power switch of TS/IS/QS is off when mounting RC-4H.
